I'll admit it, I love my Moleskine. I'm seldom without it, in the unlikely chance that inspiration for a comic will hit.  I suck at drawing, so I usually just write stuff down in mine, but there are some great examples of what people have done with their little notebooks here and here.

BTW, has anyone else noticed the exhorbitant amount of "since"s in the media lately? The worst recession since 19xx, the highest unemployment rate since xxxx, whatever. It seems like people just like comparing present situations to past ones, even though there isn't much to correlate how the world used to be and how it is now.  Maybe the news is just becoming more efficient, but it doesn't seem like it's always been this way...

...just sayin'
