    Very useful concept, fungibility. What is interchangeable, what is not? Let alone who.

    True, but it’s a great old Mel Brooks line that I like to occasionally use.

    BD seems kinda, well, uh dumb, while by contrast Ray seems kinda, well, uh, smart. πBut BD is a good honest man with a kind heart. He realizes that Ray saved his life in Iraq during the “Gulf War”. And, when war buddy Ray needs help, BD is always there. πBD got the hottest babe, Boopsie, on campus at the time. Though he cheated on her in war service with a female officer, and Boopsie broke up with him over the affair, she eventually relented and they married in 1992. Only child a daughter: the precious Sam, brighter than a turned-on light bulb.

    As one of the ones who posts early on this strip (because of time differences), I’ll post the daily warning.

    We have a regular troll on this strip, Guard SGT. He will bring every discussion back to TEA party and ‘birther’ issues.

    We have tried in the past to reason with him, he takes no notice. If you ‘feed the troll’ by engaging with him, you will help him in his aim of disrupting normal conversation here..

    So, please, let this be the first and last mention anyone makes on this strip today of, or in response to, Guard SGT. I thank you, and return you to your regular programme…

    What’s the fuss? Walden is just going through a paradigm shift from “No students left behind” to “No students left”.

    It’s like training a cat: Say “no” and change the subject when you disapprove; say “Yes!” and elaborate when you approve. This blog Has a lot of attention paid to those some find abhorrent, often more than to Doonesbury itself.

    While a VFW VSO helped me first file my claim for disability, I can’t in conscience join the organization because you have to swear you believe in the “God of Abraham”. As a Buddhist, can’t really join. They ARE pretty right-wing in the membership, but not as bad as the American Legion (psycho “nationalists”).

    DAV also supplies VSOs on a national basis, and do NOT require a religious test to join I strongly recommend folks needing help contact them.

    REMF “guard” obviously needs some psychiatric help, but isn’t likely to seek it out, as he’s also obviously NOT “service connected”, well except maybe as a severe case of “blow hard”.

    Wow, I haven’t been reading the comments here for a while, but I’m astounded by how many people continue to play chess with this pigeon. In case you haven’t noticed, “sarge” is prone to knocking over the pieces, crapping on the board, then strutting around like the next grandmaster. I kind of feel sorry for the guy. He seems to spend an inordinate amount of time “guarding” the GoComics discussion pages. My guess is that he is a sad delusional little man.

    Not only am I clean, sober and off tabackey, but I can now read Sarge’s comments without feeling any urge whatsoever to answer.
