I grew up on a farm in Tennessee. The closest town was about 15 miles away and there were no lights at night to prevent one from seeing billions of bright stars. I really. really miss that.

Asimov once wrote a story about people who saw the stars for the first time, and went stark raving mad, causing the collapse of civilization. Bloody unlikely if you ask me. Anyway, it’s well known by know how society will really collapse: it will be caused by millions of peeing Calvin decals.
I prefer to observe phenomena without drawing conclusions, theorising or coming to conclusions. I suppose there’s always been an element of Zen in me (even as a child).
An obvious question would be, why would you drink Bakon Vodka? Well, one of my sons developed the “Breakfast Martini,” which consists of Bakon Vodka, with a couple of liqueurs that I don’t recall right now, one of which turns the vodka milky white, the other is pale yellow and looks like egg yolk when dribbled into the bottom of the glass. Sprinkle a bit of pepper on top and voilà, you have a nasty tasting and horrible smelling, but visually appealing breakfast.

The door as indicator of socio-economic status. It works pretty well, wouldn’t you say?
I DO love today’s strip, Teresa. After Barticle’s simple and perfect first comment, all the rest, including mine, are supernumerary.

Could you dumb that down for peoples like me?
(The Wikipedia entry for “lineament” made reference to “dykes,” so now I’m more confused than ever)
While you’re at it, could you also explain why all those pataphysical dykes are running around in their lineaments signaling touchdown?

Radish & Rotifer, pataphysics is nice but I’d rather consider what lies beyond metacake. Yup, patacake.

I’ve had Bakon Vodka (friggin’ awful, by the way), but never Bacon Concrete. I wonder how it tastes?

Which probably expains Alfred Jarry’s short lifespan. He went crazy trying to figure out what he said.
