FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for August 31, 2010

First panel in ASCII: “Gre”. Third panel: “etin”. Or, in hexadecimal: 47, 72, 65; and 65, 74, 69, 6E. Or, in decimal: 71, 114, 101; and 101, 116, 105, 110. I like the front-on view of the second panel.

Not as old as I am!

Oct 31 = Dec 25 Therefore, Halloween equals Christmas.

Oct 31 = Dec 25 Therefore, Halloween equals Christmas.

@pgn674 -

greetings and thanks - I was too lazy to look up the ascii codes (and, knowing Amend, it could have been ebcdic, and I have no idea where my IBM crib-sheet is…).

i guess octal would be too much to ask for… :)

Hexidecimal would be better, zev.

We speak binary—-Yes and no.

Oh Jason… if you’re speaking standard ASCII you can use only 7 bits and save yourself from saying an extra ‘zero’ every byte.

Peter, you have my permission to beat the dih-dah out of him before he drives the reat of you NUTS!

Oct 31 = Dec 25 Therefore, Halloween equals Christmas.

Some years Thanksgiving falls on Nov 27 = Oct 31 = Dec 25.

So: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas are all equal.

Proof: Christmas decorations appear in the stores in September.

(If any holidays fell on Sept 34, they would count too…)
