You gotta be careful of corn at night. They can be early creepy with their husky voices and seedy appearance. Why, they even cob right out and tell you to shuck it right to your face.

(And I can't keep my tongue in my cheek on this one, either.)

Yes, but those questions are graded separately by assorted teacher-aides scattered about here and there.

demografx: very nice pic indeed.

I hadn't heard of Dale Grimshaw before, so thanks for posting it.

It really reminds me of some of the stuff that Bill Sienkiewicz has done though, and that was my first thought upon seeing it.

However, DG's name has registered now, so I'll look out for more of his work.
