Kugai:
The Earth/Minbari War will happen before Martens band makes it big.
Overkillengine:
Any one else feel sorry for the poor guy trying to use an accordion to busk? :-\
Maybe there is an Oktoberfest nearby? I doubt he'd make much otherwise.
WAYF:
As somebody who is a Weird Al Yankovic Fanatic, I respectfully disagree. All he has to do is play a polka and I will give him ALL my monies. :P
(Mind you, I can't stand slow songs played on the polka. So dreary...)
On the subject of Marten's words of wisdom, YES. I was thinking more or less this just yesterday.
So apparently Jeph can read my mind.
Get out of my mind, Jeph. You don't know where it's been! :P

He looks like a man who genuinely loves playing the accordion; I think he's one of those folks who just likes playing for the sake of playing. Hmm....sounds a bit like our soul-searching protagonist. Is this done on purpose? Is this foreshadowing Marten's future? Is he destined to be Northampton's next mentally unbalanced busker?
Anyhoo, I personally always try my best at smoking weed.
Time for sleep :psyduck:

Today's comic brought to mind an article I read only recently:
Can you learn to love your job?
Many years ago I was working with Ingham's Chickens at their processing plant in Sorell, near Hobart. My job was to work with Human Resources to help reduce the amount of soft tissue injuries on the production line. Over time I came to know the staff well, and there was one woman, a beautiful Italian lady in her late 50s named Rosa, who to this day still inspires me.
Rosa worked on the end of the production line and her technical role was to exonerate the internal chicken carcass, or in everyday terms, she stuck a pipe inside a chicken's arse and flushed it out.
One day over morning tea I said to her "Rosa, you are always so happy and positive, have you always been like this?". "She looked at me like I just asked a really stupid question. "Of course I am always like this. I have a job and I work with great people."

Depends. If he busts out some Wagner, then he has my gold.
Edit: There are a lot of "never" options in that poll.
