Title: May 22, 2008 The Conduit Exacts A Fee, Much Like An Ohm In A Wire

Alternate thread titles:

I love that Ray "has a URL". Totally nonspecific as to whether it is a website, or a blog, or a social networking profile, signifying that he not only can't remember his URL, he can't remember the kind of resource it locates. Uniformly.

It's been a good arc...

I'm liking that Ray is best represtented not by a book, but by a mere pamphlet.

Is it just me, or does Ray seem much of melacholy in the third panel?

I think he's coming down off of the 'shine.

Man, Philippe got a longer baseball card than Ray's book/pamphlet. I'd say it would be pretty sad to have less to going on in your life than a 5 year old, but I'd having trouble filling up 5 pages about me.

I could totally fill pages and pages with my life, but so much of it would be random anecdotes. Or rather, the list of anecdotes which I repeat a lot.

The pamphlet reminded me of the time Ray got REALLY good with computers for a little while and promptly forgot it all so that he could be happy/get girls. This strip was decent but reminding me of that amused me even more.

I find NP's illustration of Ray interesting.  Much tougher and more jowly that the real Ray.  Thankfully, we were only treated to a bust, as I shudder to think what Pete would have done with Ray's banana-hammock.

...and my understanding is that was originally music from a porno so it kind of fits (and snopes isn't contradicting me yet so I'm going to run with it).

Well dang, looks like the Italian softcore pornography industry has found even more ways to make me feel awkward about the Muppets.
