Fingerpori OK there's a layer to this. The Finnish phrase used "Gizan hiekka", Giza sand, sounds very similar to "kissanhiekka", literally cat's sand, but in practise the term for kitty litter. "Kissa" = cat, "kissan", the genetive form of cat and then "hiekka", sand. Someone might ask why "kissanhiekka" is a compound word, but "Gizan hiekka" isn't, and the reason for that is that Giza is a name, while kissa is a generic noun.

Rhymes with Orange Get Fuzzy 3/21/04  Stephen Collins  Brenda Starr 11/13-15/52    This is probably the lamest way Messick has gotten out of a story since "It was all a dream!" Smokey Stover 6/26/60  Everyday Movies 5/12/37  "Would you blieve it, Duke, I weigh only 40 lbs. more than Clark Gable." Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 5/13-15/43    Closer Than We Think! 6/26/60  Yeah, it's Project Chariot. Here's a contemporary article on the project by Project Plowshare director Edward Teller, under the typically modest title "We're Going to Work Miracles." Reading up on the Project Plowshare proposals is simultaneously amusing and horrifying. My favorite is the one where they wanted to use 500 nukes to cut a canal across southern Israel from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. But it's still not quite as silly as Elon's suggestion that we could terraform Mars by nuking its polar ice caps.... Selachian fucked around with this message at 12:18 on Mar 22, 2024 |

Holy poo poo I first learned about Project Chariot when visiting a museum in Anchorage full of other instances of indigenous people treated disposably, so seeing Project Chariot in CTTT is loving wild.

And now for something completely different! MICKEY & RUDY, January 7-11, 1984 Winter 1985: Mickey & Rudy    Glad to see the job market hasn't changed in 40 years Note 19: quote:In 1985, the new student editors wanted to try out some new cartoonists. Spence and I were asked to step aside. It's hard now to remember how Mickey & Rudy ended up in the paper. My attempts to get Thorn syndicated were getting bogged down, and I began trying out some new ideas. Mickey is essentially a Thorn look-a-like, and these 5 strips are all that I did. quote:I was surprised to see those in the packet you sent me. Didn't remember those being in the paper. My focus for the next couple of years was working toward a syndicate contract, and Mickey & Rudy was me trying my hand at what I thought would be something editors would like. It was a serviceable strip about a young college student and her talking cat. Don't know why I stopped. Tomorrow will start the final trimester, Spring 1985. I'll be finished the day I go on vacation, so this is working out perfectly! Endless Mike fucked around with this message at 15:00 on Mar 22, 2024 |

Every time I see Project Chariot come up I have to say go read The Firecracker Boys. Great book that goes into the detail of the project, and then the fight against it by the local indigenous population and biologists studying the region.

Bizarro  I would have gone with the more straightforward joke of a really bland and milquetoast band called "Beige Against the Machine". The Family Circus  Slylock Fox  Flash Gordon  I have some slight quibbles about the gravity and aerodynamics of this, but what the heck, I'll allow it.

Scary Go Round (November 11-16, 2005)    Time for a few weeks of Adobe Illustrator art! We'll be back to hand drawn art soon (April 17, 2006), but right now we're in the era where Allison isn't really confident in his art style, so it's computer-drawn for a bit.
