I am very much hoping that that sign behind Gil is photoshopped....And if it is how did you do it? I am trying to photoshop this sign into saying "Welcome to Mordor" but cannot quite pull it off.

By the way I find the sideline comment of "Man falls in toxic waste, devlops super-power "I can die incredibly fast!" very charming, and yes I mean it.

No, for once, this was a sign I didn't touch. I was going to make one saying 'burning children' or some such, but when I found that picture on Google I felt it needed nothing more adding.

But if you need a sign like that...

I'm really spooked: that terrain looks a lot like the prairie-r parts of Canada--my home turf. Does this mean I'm stuck here? Is this why I've never met another 'Downer?

For the record, I am definitely among the 76% of 'Downers that wishes they had an Indiana Jones hat. Fedoras are simply the coolest headgear since Egyptian pharaoh headdresses.

Wow, the "peoples" of Mordor have greatly improved their agriculture. It must be all that lava fertilizer.

All right, I admit it!

I didn't actually take a poll about the Indiana Jones hat! I just assumed that nearly everyone thought the hat was cool but figured a few people already had it- thus the 76% number I pulled from the air.

I was going to go with 71% originally, but I thought I'd up it just because I think Indy rocks.

Alright that does it!! I think that since Hookbill has started this obsession with Indiana Jones hats I think that it is only fair for him to buy some for us. At least until the 76% are satisfied.
