I think the current comic storyline is reaching the point, if it hasn't passed it already, where it is no longer about the political rantings of two of the characters but is about the relationship dynamic that is developing between them. And that is something that I believe RHJr can make an interest...

Unless you're buying into the conspiracy theorists who concluded that "Paul is Dead" and was replaced by a double sometime in the late sixties, Paul is by all reputable sources still alive. Or did I miss the humor in that post?

Oh, and if someone catches Bin Laden before I do, punch him 17 times for me, please. Only 17?? I think he deserves at least one for each person who has died at the hands of his organization. In the London case, however, don't take the claim of responsibility at face value just yet - they may be try...

Oxygen isotopes: What is examined is the proportion of ¹⁸O and ¹⁶O. Both isotopes are stable, and are found in H2O. (The heavier isotope is also referred to as deuterium or "heavy water".) 16-Oxygen is the lighter isotope -- it has 16 rather than 18 neutrons in the nucleus. Th...

RHJunior wrote:Humanity is already producing enough food to feed itself several times over.

Not to start an argument or anything, just asking a question. If it isn't feeding people, where is all this food going?

In the third panel, are the words "pressed little pressed loaves" a typo?

Now that the brownies have narrowed the search area, wouldn't that make it feasable for Quentyn to wander the search area, trying to feel for the sword through the bond? Or does the Royal's "Safe Case" and keeping the sword drained render that approach ineffective? Or perhaps the problem is the thir...

In asking the question of what population is sustainable, one must also ask, is it fair for the human race to use any and all resources our planet has to offer to provide maximum benefit to human beings? Or would that be shirking our responsibility as stewards of the planet? There are many other ani...

I'm pretty sure Rick Moranis is Canadian, as are John Candy and Colin Mochrie. There's no shortage of Canadian popular musicians either: Rush, The Guess Who, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Anne Murray, Barenaked Ladies, Jim Stafford, Bryan Adams, Alanis Morissette, Shania Twain...

Typical, they could speek Rac'conan the whole flippin time :-? Not anytime! Only when it's funny. :lol: :lol: Or it could just be that RHJ is simplifying by presenting only the substance of the conversation, leaving out all the intermediate translations and such - a common shortcut in novels and su...

The arcade at one nearby mall has been shut down several times, usually for the same reason. The local gangs start hanging out there. Then someone starts 'dealing' there. THen trouble spreads out to the rest of the mall. Sound's like Prof. Harold Hill's pitch on the pool table wasn't so far off the...

Considering that the garnished wages total would be somewhere between one and ten thousand dollars, that's a lot of money to be returning to Malarkey County with in one's pocket. Keep in mind that all this happened in a period of only a couple of weeks, so the account would have had only the first ...

My science teacher years ago once told me that someone had made a car engine using very strong and heat resistent plastics not the kind that they use in home products. The engine was so light and efficent that it beat the pants of any other engine at the time and still does probably the one down si...

The response was... well, let me just say "Thank you" to BlasTech; if not for you this thread would have been totally dead. Those only mentioned who do not actually appear are marked with a (*). In most cases, the strip indicated is the one where their name is first mentioned. My original list of ch...

1. Someone is selling a car on eBay. An interested buyer makes a good offer but says the only check they can pay with is written for a substantially larger amount than the agreed-upon price, and asks the buyer to write a check for the difference. The "too big" check turns out not to be valid, and by...

Yep, that's him.

On Friday I'll post where all these characters have appeared or been mentioned (including those BlasTech mentioned) that haven't already been in this thread. But I hope some of the rest of you will chime in with answers before then.

Am I correct in thinking that this comic is a reference to the cliche (often used in Star Trek) that when things go wrong on a starship, especially during a battle, it often results in consoles on the bridge exploding in a shower of sparks? (quite a ludicrous cliche, when you think about it - what a...

By now, considering relative affluence and population, I wouldn't be surprised if there were more Mexican restaurants in the United States than there are in Mexico. Good stuff! 8) Perhaps, but would a restaurant in Mexico that served Mexican food actually call itself a Mexican restaurant? You don't...

I wanted to ask RHJr about "Conner" in http://npc.keenspace.com/d/20041127.html; near as I can figure it is another name for Colin (a typo, perhaps?).

And wouldn't you know it, there is Fleet! I must have overlooked him the first time I went through.

Abram?
