Wow, Brooke. That sounds pretty gross. :barf:

Why does it not surprise me that Brooke's characters are the type of people who will act all rude and superior to a secretary just for doing her job? Here's a tip for anybody who actually wants to make life easier for themselves or who just plain aren't assholes: Always be nice to the secretary/front office/whoever is in charge of the books and appointments. These people wield more power than you might think.

Gil

Gil has a habit of watching really bad adult television. When I was a kid whenever the TV was free and a good cartoon wasn't on it was always video game time.

Kids are weird. I used to watch Divorce Court when I was home from school, in spite of multitudes of better things I could have been doing with my time.

1) Do large organizations not already have the lion's share of bandwidth on account of bandwidth costing money?
2) Just how much bandwidth did it take for that Solitaire java applet to load?

I think that's the joke. The second bit, at least; she's talking about how much bandwidth she needs, and then proceeds to do something that doesn't use the Internet at all.

Oh. Well, I guess Sam's reckless toying with mad science finally got the best of her, and that's the end of Safe Havens. Hope everyone enjoyed it!

I like how Holbrook feels the need to repeatedly reinforce that Samantha is a moron and should not be allowed anywhere near the magic called science in this world.

Pfft, of course he's not going to figure it out, and even if he did, he'd never remember it. This whole storyline started because The Phantom forgot it himself.

Take note, Newspaper Spidey fans. Classic Phantom is so dumb he forgot his own origin story, and spent several weeks of strips trying to figure it out.

She's had chin-length bobbed hair for this entire story arc. Did it grow to waist length overnight or is this a different woman? It's impossible to tell any of his characters apart because they all have the same faces and bodies and they all talk exactly the same way.

To be fair, ladies are the best ride.

Today, instead of Geech, we're revisiting Red and Rover. Most Memorial Days (but not all), the strip highlights a trip to pay respects to Red's Uncle Jimmy, KIA. Gocomics doesn't go back before 2003, but these are dead Uncle Jimmy's appearances since then.

May 26, 2003:

Jarring, but it's not like we have to look at a war grave.

May 21, 2004:

I think that's Red's brother in the background. He's usually an rear end in a top hat, so it's weird to see him commiserating with Red.

May 30, 2005:

At least it isn't about dog slobber.

May 29, 2006:

A rare Memorial Day without Uncle Jimmy.

May 28, 2007:

This is the good one. It's a quietly jarring reminder that the honored dead weren't much older than Red is.

After a long hiatus, May 30, 2011:

Doesn't work. I still think Red and Rover would be a better strip with a lot less Rover in it.

May 28, 2012:

The only appearance by Uncle Jimmy himself. He's forgotten Scooter's name wasn't Biscuit.

Nothing last year, but May 26, 2014:

It's not as infuriating as Guy Gilchrist's hooey. I wish it was more consistent and less "doggy".
