Hyperbole and a half

For the past week or two I found and was ennamormed with the blog Hyperbole and a Half. It is the blog of Allie Brosh and it combines wacky tales with some of the most imaginative and amuzing pictures I have see on the internet. She tries to depict facial expressions and other humorous occurances in her pictures. She draws the pictures in paint (or a similar program) and her style is to draw them almost as a child would. This combines for some interesting material.
One blog in particular that is quite fantastic is her story of fishing with her dad when she was a child. The story is almost To Kill a Mockingbird eske with her telling a story from her childhood from the perspective of her adulthood. The blog is titled How a Fish Almost Destroyed My Childhood and I'll leave you to see exactly how you like it. Here is the link: http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-fish-almost-destroyed-my-childhood.html
