Jukeofurl, you’re not kidding. (motsly about the league though. there’s something about that Dr. J that just gets me. And Prof Moriarty? Well, If I can’t have Sherlock…. eh, next best thing.)

I love it, Science Fiction references taht people still remember!!! Colossus–the Forbin Project was very spook in its time, and may still be. Skynet ex Terminator didn’t strike me as that spooky or threatening….perhaps because it is more militaristic…I dunno, it just wasn’t as spooky.
Pab…I’m swinging the prayerwheel for you. It’s about all I can do right now but a few prayers never hurt. Keep us updated
Pab – I’m just now playing catchup with the strip and have read your posts regarding your recent difficulties. I’m so terribly sorry this is happening to you. I’m sending lots of positive energy your way!
I do sincerely hope that Vic won’t have to end. I only read about a half dozen comics these days (that aren’t classic repeats) and yours is one of them. I appreciate the historical/intellectual humor that is so lacking in many other strips. Keep up the fabulous work as long as you can!
Brightest blessings that you can keep your home and your strip!

Had to look that one up - I remembered the Canadian band Rush - but not this particular album (probably the vinyl kind). I’ll have to see if I can stream some song clips. Thanks - I was a Moody Blues/Pink Floyd/Jefferson Starship fan back then.

GJ_Jehosaphat. Yes it WAS vinyl. It’s all of side one and the quote is the last line of it. It was (I think) their fourth LP.
