Here's what I figured: Jackie has no clue where she is, how far from home she is or how to even start going back. As far as timelines go, I figure that cabin (complete with running water and electricity) probably took them an afternoon to build. I'd say sleep now, figure it all out later.<P>Besides, it keeps her mind off the heavy stuff that was going on before she was kidnapped. She might as well enjoy the vacation. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/tongue.gif">

Since I'm number 800+ in the update queue, here's the comic you're supposed to be able to read today:<P><img src="http://jackiesfridge.keenspace.com/imag ... 2a.jpg"><P>------------------

Seems kinda weird, to me, how Jackie seems to have 100% accepted that from now on she'll be living with the Dannys (Dannies?). It just seems like it went from being kidnapped to having decided to settle down there, which seems really weird to me. Why didn't she just run off when they were all injured from trying to build her a cabin? Why would she put so much effort into building herself a house if she intended to leave and get back to her home as soon as possible?
This just seems... really odd, to me. Oh well. Guess I should probably just shut up and enjoy the punchline of the strip. c.c;; x.x

*Shhhhh!*<P> It's rude to ask someone over sixteen their age, someone over 100lbs their weight, or to point out anyone's plot inconsistancies. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"><P> But I'm rather betting that in the Village of the Dannys, there's something strange in the water/air/music/whatever.

Besides, spending an afternoon or two throwing up a ready-made home (those who think of this house as one of those wood-plank things are probably overestimating the Dannys) is probably not all that big a hassle when compared to being threatened with burning at the stake, or even with struggling with a severely busted sexual compass.<P>------------------

Eh, when your fridge talks and your pet consumes souls, `reality` is a fairly vauge term anyway. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">

"Overestimating the Dannys?" Not necessarily.
They aren't stupid, just sleep-deprived.
SEVERELY sleep-deprived...
(I would guess it could,in fact, be worse- I mean,they worship Danny Elfman's work with "Oingo-Boingo" after all, rather than being some F---ed up form of fundamentalist Christianity...) Jackie will get out when it's time... I'm sure of that. (Maybe she'll have to get out by "Burning Down The House", or some other form of "Weird Science") Who knows..?<P>------------------
