Keen observers will note that fright of the authorities is the preferred method for gauging an alcohol's impact in Achewood.

First comic topic!

At least it seems to be Mr Bear's method...

Although there's no way to be sure that Ray hasn't just got his freak on, it is possible that that is his Blogging crown rather than just his "just got my freak on" crown.

One wonders why Mr. Bear has such reason to want to not be scared of the police, anyway.

I love all of Ray's euphemisms for depression. Especially the chemistry analogy.

Why is Ray so paranoid? When Molly and Beef joined him at his new Tiffany grill, he seemed all despondent and worried. It reminds me of Henry Hill in "Goodfellas", trying to cook a fancy dinner while dabbing at his nose and obsessively casting a wary eye to the black helicopter above the house. Is Ray buying blow from Todd's van, or what?

And Mr Bear has always been exceedingly proper, but his use of British colloquialisms in today's comic seems...over-the-top?

I am not sure if I'm just misreading stuff, or if Onstead is setting something up here. What do you guys think?

I think it's a one-off set at the barbecue with Molly & Beef is all. Ray's probably got a couple-few neighbors over at a time anyway.

...which makes me wonder why there's no BeefBlog set up - J.Ro. does it (though unrelated to Wigu)... and a comic every day at 12 AM E(S|D)T. Plus, he moderates his own forum and comes up with great shirts. Maybe that's why I've got a Googel Maverick shirt on order and have only bought the one (too-thin, printed-off-center) Achewood (Roast Beef) shirt.

Agreed. But the Liquor Cabinet Taste Test reference totally makes up for it.

Wow. That has totally become one of my favourite Achewood/something else... references!?

I quite like this. Something about Ray's delivery I think.

Apologies, I am suffering drastic insomnia and thus can't remember words, ideas, faces, names or trousers.

We have an unopened bottle of Pimm's at home.  I don't even know where we got it.  Now I may need to try it.
