The Hardest Logic Puzzle Ever
This is how I pass the time while gaurding:
The Hardest Logic Puzzle Ever
Three gods A, B, and C are called, in no particular order, True, False, and Random. True always speaks truly, False always speaks falsely, but whether Random speaks truly or falsely is a completely random matter. Your task is to determine the identities of A, B, and C by asking three yes-no questions; each question must be put to exactly one god. The gods understand English, but will answer all questions in their own language, in which the words for yes and no are da and ja, in some order. You do not know which word means which.
I spent a lot of time on this last time I was on gaurd duty and, while it appears there is a solution, I have yet to reach it. And of course I daren't just read it: that'd ruin everything. In the meantime, here are my attempts to think in an organised manner, complete with delightful illustrations:
And now I'm off to gaurd. Maybe this time I'll get it.

Lazy Cat
I promised you a cat and a cat you will get. Because that's how I roll.
...I'm not even a cat person.

New Bed
Yet another little story. This is what happens when I can't think of anything to draw and so just go over one of the hundreds of ideas I've jotted down that seemed good at the time (unfortunately it frequently turns out they weren't, or that I have at least forgotten their punch). Next one's gonna be funny. (Cats can't fail)

Guarding
There's nothing like some guy flying willy nilly over a base while you watch helplessly from the gaurd tower to make you feel useless
