    Woodstock? I decided not to go. Too many guys to chick ratio. When I saw what was happening, I patted myself on the back & bankedmy pay. Which I later used to buy a Vette.

    One more time regarding the 2011 copyright notice. Some things are done well in advance of their publication. If a work is—-in this case—- drawn in 2011, that’s the date of copyright. A song or movie recorded in 2011—-is released 2012.

    Every January someone comments on the copyright date. Scott explained it in the comments in either November or December of last year, saying that because the strip is done in advance the copyright date shown is when the work was done. I guess some people missed his comment. He knows what is going on.

    The shoes need to have Velcro fasteners, and be light gray plastic.

    Sacrelidge I say…!! It’s been a cancerous conspiracy to undermine and erase from history the only true religion born and evolving from the early Deltazoic Era right through to the late Hendrixacene Period.

    I saw a Seattle grunge band once. “Screaming Trees” they were called. My God, they were hideous.

    Playing between two superb power-pop bands (Oasis & Manic Street Preachers) didn’t help their cause.

    I’m with Rick on this one. “I REFUSE to believe it.”
