A Wall Calendar? How Analog

Posted on | May 30, 2009 | 4 Comments

I noticed the other day that my 2008 Venture Bros wall calendar has mysteriously ceased to be accurate for some reason, so I’m scouring the web for a 2009 wall calendar of some sort. Something classy. (And yes, I realize that the year is nearly half over — I’ve just been putting off buying one for a while and then suddenly it’s June.)

I’d like some sort of steampunk or retro-futuristic calendar, but those are surprisingly hard to find. The only real contender thus far is this one, which promises “12 months of retro sci-fi rockets, robots and death rays.” It’s not bad, it’s just missing . . . a certain panache. It lacks moxy.

Or should I perhaps switch gears, and go for a Ziggy calendar instead? After all, Ziggy is just so darn funny! Like cancer.

Sigh. Back to searching.

    Not feeling the Retropolis…and unsurprisingly, not the Ziggy either. Do they still make Calvin and Hobbes calenders? That’d be sweet action.

    Are you too good for an old fashioned titty calendar? And by old fashioned I of course mean saloon style.

    I liked your site better when you beat the other Josh bales in search rankings.

    So did I. Unfortunately, I’m like you and Broken Dayton — I’m too busy doing other stuff to really spend time on it.

    Not to worry, though. Nate and I are working on something new that could prove interesting. I’ll let you know more about it when it’s fully up and running.
