When Ilene Markowitz met Bill Haddad in Austin, Texas, the least of her concerns was his Arab heritage. More troubling was the fact that her new beau was from Waco—under two hour's drive but a million miles away. So what’s a nice, liberal, Jewish girl doing with a Catholic, Arab, Libertarian? Creating a webcomic, of course! Casa Weenie began as a way for Ilene to share conversations she had with her husband, known to fans as Mr. Weenie. A little more Lucy and Ricky than Romeo and Juliet, the banter of this odd little offshoot of the United Nations makes for a comedic reflection on married life.
