Liam O'Donnell, camera advice, and cartoon captions

For those interested, I've posted my interview with children's author Liam O'Donnell on blogTO this morning.

Thanks SO much for all the camera lens advice so far! I'm still reading through it and have pointed Jeff to your comments since he'll be using the camera as well.



Here are the captions that some of you came up with in this week's Cartoon Caption Challenge:

"Any mail? I don't know, last time I peeked I got an eye poked out..." (pondside)

"Still waiting for a Valentine from that little red-tentacled girl.
(Granted, it would work better with a zigzag stripe on his shirt. :) )" (markbernstein)

"Lixaprg, seeing the Symbol of Enmity so prominently displayed, realized with dismay that its mission of peaceful contact with Earth was futile." (madfilkentist)

"Ever since H. G. Wells described him as a "singularly disagreable creature" in a book, poor Zorkulon has relied on a diminishing number of pen pals for companionship."(peteralway)

"The Giant Squid's grandson was waiting impatiently for his copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to arrive." (auntymarion)
