Those of you who haven't been reading this blog for too long may not be aware of the other "700 Things" projects. If ever you want an excuse to draw, we have about 490,000 for you. Here's a link to the main group on flickr, and from there you can learn about 700 Zombies, Unicorns, Bunnies, and much, much more.

Today I got a surprise in the mail: A Line by Cully Long. It's a collection of his drawings of fellow subway riders in NYC. I love it. Thanks, Cully!
You can buy a copy here and see his handiwork here.

Here's an alphabetical list of Christmas stuff I drew last during a rare free hour.

There's a hole punch cloud over my place this morning.
For the record, Kid Icarus was my favorite NES game back in the day. It's not too well-known, so there probably won't ever be any references to it in the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats. Though it might be fun to see Kitteh or Pip turned into an eggplant with feet at some point.
There will be a comic later, and I'm organizing the archives on flickr into more manageable sections.

I just noticed Zazzle has 5$ off all calendars. I put together a Kitteh and Pip calendar the other day and you can see it here.
The photo above does not appear on the calendar, but it was in the cc pool on flickr.
More Peggy Lee. Please note: some of the Santas depicted are not nearly big and fat enough.

Thanks for the responses to the poll and the comments!
Laugh-Out-Loud Cats #650
Originally uploaded by Ape Lad.
If you own a Laugh-Out-Loud Cats comic and also have a flickr account, will you find yours on flickr and note that it's yours in the comments? You don't have to, but it might be nice to know for posterity's sake. A lot of people have already done this, but if you would rather people not know, that's fine too. I completely understand.
Also, please note the new poll over there to the right. I'm curious about how people are reading these. RSS? Flickr? Something else? A combingation of the three? I suppose asking the question here on the blog will automatically skew the results, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
---UPDATE---
I had to reset the poll. I did it wrong. It's right now. Sorry. Thanks. Good night.

From here till the end of the year I'll slow down posting comics to one a day, excluding Sundays. That way, Ragnarok (#666: where someone dies) can conveniently correspond with January 1st.
I'll still take and send orders, but will hold them in reserve until the New Year.
I'll also post stuff I've been meaning to get to: wallpapers, a papercraft Soapo box, and other surprises along the way.
That said, expect #650 later this evening.

Created for Glenn's Cephalopodmas project. Check it out and be freaked right out. I know I did.
Glenn is also the same Glenn who ordered the very first Laugh-Out-Loud Comic ever. Up with Glenn!
Laugh-Out-Loud Cats #400

#400 is finally done and available for auction on ebay. Here's the link. It's a three day auction since Christmas is fast approaching.
Numbers 500 and 600 are still on the drawing board and will probably not be done before the end of the year.

Here's a preview of the Mole Men I drew for the recent episode of BoingBoingTV. The official project will kick off when Hodgman's next book is released, so I won't add these to a group pool on flickr just yet. I might need to update them as more information becomes available.
You can see them all here.
