<I>i think she's just been squinting...in the strip after their first date, he brings her a card and she runs into the back to read it. he co-worker says to her, "he's going to find out you wear glasses sometime"...i just think it's not fair of her to have waited this long to tell him.</I><P>Agreed,...

Good points, all! And Lily would be understanding of an incorrect "brand" selection (knowing her). I was simply speculating on the "how can this get worse" theme - because Mr./Ms. Murphy has bit me in the posterior on more than one occasion...and any pilot will tell you about the concept of "cascade...

Hey, Unc! You're a Wire Chaser, too?? I just got out of ### years of working as a TV engineer/eng truck op/sat truck op/vcr-vtr tech and now work as a pollution instrument tech. No more ulcers, late nights, thankless work or heavy stress headaches - you should try it! There IS life after broadcastin...

Oh, that all women should be as intelligent, understanding and loving as Lily!!! <P>If Ben EVER messes things up with Lily.....well, I don't think there's a fitting punishment for <i>that!</i><P>J (nearly in love with a cartoon mountain lion) T<P><P>------------------ "Any sufficiently advanced tech...

Ben's having a time of it the past couple of weeks! All that's left is for him to be seen by some antagonist (the rat maybe...) on his noped with a big box of Kotex on the back and find out from Lily that it's not the brand she uses!! <P>I'm thinking, "Okay, how can this get worse?"<P>J (been there ...

How 'bout this: Ben gets everything on the list except for the tampons....and (somewhat) tells the truth, "Uh, Lily...I wasn't sure which brand you wanted - and there were <i>three aisles of 'em</i>..."<P>Well..?<P>JT<P>------------------ "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable fr...

He thinks he's not sure what he thinks...but he wants to make Lily happy and thinks...awwwwww...I think I messed up....<P>JT

But I feel compelled to comment - <P>Why has no-one else noticed - or at least said anything about - Ben's missing ballcap? He's out in public and his head is naked!

Any decent supermarket at least has landmines and large caliber ammo, you know....<P>To Lily, it's probably a matter of putting it on her list and not thinking any more about it; just another "household item" to get.

Hehe...didn't think you would, David. Then again, Ralph <i>has</i> surprised us before.... This little {ahem} interlude opens up a whole lot of directions the plot could go, but you can bet your dog, your hat, and your housecat that Ben (and ultimately Lily, as well) is about to get dragged into the...

Collision Alert! Collision Alert!! All hands brace for impact! ------<P>Okay, now that that's out of the way...! I have a nasty feeling that Ben's about to get - what would be for him - an especially unpleasant mission from DaBoss.........any wagers on a sucker bet??<P>JT<P> <P>------------------ "A...

In defense of Schlepp's difficulty with English: For fifteen years I worked with a great guy and friend who'd immigrated to the US from Egypt with his family when he was age 14. He carries the Egyptian/Arab genotype skin color and jet-black hair...and still has some trouble with English, despite hav...
