Midnight Moth: Sep 14, 2007; What the hell, dude??
I'm like, right here.

Gil

Why would a UFO visit some podunk Rhode Island town instead of a more exciting locale like Nevada or Arizona?

Retail

Fraud and perjury with a paper trail, huh? I see nothing wrong with this plan. Well actually it's Retail so most likely they'll get off with a slap on the wrist or weasel their way out of any potential investigation because they're the protagonists :downs:

Bleeker

I would've destroyed it in a more spectacular fashion but we can do it the boring way too.

Dustin

You only get one of those if you're sharing it with friends. And even then eating that much popcorn will make you want to puke.

Fastrack

Doesn't she have a Windows phone? Why would a computer bug willingly target one of those?

Safe Havens

You know, maybe it's time for dodos to face extinction again...

Skippy's second Christmas. (December 25, 1926)

If your favorite Funky Winkerbean character is The Bottomless Well of Human Misery, you got stiffed again, and the strip mocks you for thinking something interesting would come of all this.

I believe that's it for any linking that needs done for the story. Rest assured Willie still has not found his shirt.

I totally agree, Jeremy. I'm posting later than usual because I didn't get out of bed 'til 10:45 this morning. Had some great friends over late last night, and we all had a great time with a couple of bottles of great spiced rum. It was great. I think. :v:

Yeah, Rudy. You'd think that they'd at least euthanize it with CO2 first so you'd have it immobile and dead, but still warm. Jeeze. We can put a wolf on the moon...

We can only hope she's planning to dump the jerk, but knowing Greg it's probably that she's going to defy her father and wreck her future to go to college with Gunther or something dumb like that.

Apartment 3-G

Well, she looks pretty chipper. But then I guess she found out her fiance died like a whole four hours ago. Life goes on, you know? Can't live in grief forever. Sooner or later you have to put on your pink blazer and feed a baby deer.

I shouldn't care about this strip, but if she decides not to go to Yale to stay with loving Gunther, I'm going to be pissed off enough to avoid reading Luann ever again. Because this strip would really want to me think her decision was noble or some poo poo.

A decisive opening move from the Phants has shattered all our heroes' plans before they could even be formed! Has "The Man From Nowhere" unwittingly led Dare to his doom?! Answers will have to wait until Monday, when Dan and what's left of his company set foot on the Rogue Planet!

How would a long-distance relationship be any different from the relationship they have now? They can awkwardly perform their annual chaste kiss when she comes home for Christmas or something.
