Not that Lonely yet

So I was traveling the internet and found this wonderful little gem.  Apparently it's a device that can be used to record and simulate kisses.  So that you can send them over distances.  They are even talking about having celebrities upload there kisses and fans can buy them for a small fee.
 

 
Have we lost our minds?!? I mean seriously.  I know I watch more porn than any 3 men I know.  I currently have 3 other tabs open with the finest  erotic cinematic art, (E.G. Backdoor Sluts 9, Naughty Nurses 2, Crotch Capers 4) but kissing isn't about sex.  It's a display of love and affection.  When a guy sees a hot girls he think "I want to have sex with her." That's a primal instinct having nothing to do with emotions.  When he sees the woman he loves she is the one that he wants to kiss and paint her toe nails, although that last part might just be me.

I like feet. 
 
Now we want to digitize a kiss and send it to people.  What if you e-mail it to the wrong person are you cheating?  You know that argument is coming.  Years from now when they perfect the machine some girl is going to walk in and say I saw you sent a digital kiss to so and so.  HOW COULD YOU!!! You know I hate her!! We're Done.  If you think I am exaggerating you never dated a crazy woman.

And who the hell thinks playing with a straw is the same as making out with a girl. If that's the case any girl who has a milkshake from McDonald's is cheating on her boyfriend.  

Look I may be lonely and spend my weekends like the video below but even I know this is just wrong.  (By the way this video is awesome.)

In the Works

Time for a little shameless promotion, here is what the Section 8 Family is up to.

On the Web:
@ the 8 Spot 
The comic strip is now going up twice a week.  Artist Wilson Ramos-Jr. was able to build up enough of a buffer that we think that we can not only keep this up but maybe even throw a few more surprises your way.

A Work in Progress has been up for just over a month now and it's going strong.  Response has been very favorable.  Please stop by and take a look.  I think you will enjoy.

In Development:
The Hook Up
Currently sent to my Art Director to see who would be perfect for this new online comic strip that we are developing about a group of friends trying to figure out the difference between getting laid and finding love.  Hopefully by the summer time we will see strips on the web.

The Wombat
Wilson Ramos-Jr. had created a goofy character named the Wombat based on a high school nickname he had.  It was never intended to be a serious book but after much discussion we have decided to see if there might be something here for a limited run web comic.

Stars Edge
The Black and White space epic is actually going to be Rereleased in color.  We are hoping to have a color version ready to go by the New York Comic con.
