Isn't that a euphemism for prostitution?  (E.g., "Hey there sailor, etc.")  Is Big O whoring out his artwork for syndication, or is he actually hooking?  

All wearin' giraffenets and knee-high boots
All flavored condoms in his pocketbook
All rentin' hotel rooms by the hour
All staring at the ceiling trying not to look bored

All closing his eyes and pretending that it is true love

Me, too.  That's kind of what inspired me.  Odd, that.

Does this mean we're in for a heartbreaking plot arc when Beef realizes that Molly owned those gigantic condoms for professional reasons? All turnin' on the red light in Heaven?

He's changed it to "new job on the docks".

Someone's lurking....

I can never quite tell if he's lurking or it's just coincedence that say, maybe someone else emails him things we mention here.
Things like the Twain stuff - that someone mentioned here a, I think Ray's Place, was slipping at one point to Twainism, then a day later Twain was in the strip. Now this...
After my mentioning Ray must use the dumbwaiter as an elevator too - though I guess that's a fairly obvious one.
But still, either we think like the man, or he is popping by...
So, hey Chris!

I've e-mailed him about typos and stuff in the past just because I didn't feel like pointing out a minor error most people had missed to all the Dumbrellites.

He also lives in the Bay Area.  It's foggy in San Fran right now, but I'm sure it's quite fine down there bayside.  Maybe he's talking the dog for a walk.

Perhaps he's a "Roving Reporter" now for some local "Indie Rag."

It's either that, hot dog vendor, or male prostitute.

Asherdan you can’t fool me, that’s Trey Anastasio.

Or a local fireman.
