True, but sometimes, you owe it to your honor, and the truth, to at least *try* and set folks straight. Ethics can be a difficult burden to bear, sometimes. Or so they tell me. :wink: Anyway, yes, it *was* inspired by both of those comics. I dimly recall reading the Bloom County one, and the quote ...

I'm afraid I didn't get all the references. I think I got the Kevin & Kell one, and I know who Eric von Daniken is and (generally) what his theories are, but I didn't catch the Freefall reference. And the other two names are beyond me. A little help, someone? I'm glad you didn't ask for a lot of he...

Emergencies
One thing sure to make an emergency worse is another emergency. Best wishes working through them, and absolutely no need to worry about rushedness. There are only 24 hours most days, and things have to have priorities.

The 12/26 strip is a chuckle, particularly if you're familiar with why "mammals" are called that. ;) But I had to wonder: if you take a young lady out who is wearing plutonium (PU-236) in her bra, would that be called "radioactive dating"? *Oooh* (groan of admiration, of course) This is the young l...

Andreas Petzoldt
I have a couple thoughts about the Andreas Petzoldt flying suit... (1) I wonder what he does about torque? Maybe just always using the diffuser they mentioned in one direction. They did mention it was going to act something like a helicopter's tail rotor, which does the job for a helicopter after al...

Ok, this is a bit of a long shot, but is the soldier with the British flag Coleen, formerly working with another, somewhat less official unit?
