Yeah, it's from Wittgenstein.

Don't worry about it too much though, Wittgenstein himself decided later in life that the entire book that quote came from was total BS.

delapidated: a building which has had stones removed.

a building cannot be delapidated if it isn't made out of stone people

and don't get me started on turning nouns into verbs.

What about "jilapidated?"

Didn't Onstad say something like "Two sunday-length strips coming Tuesday" on Monday, as well?

Daily strip: 1 row of panels.
Sunday strip: 2 rows
Double sunday: 4 rows.


Sunday strips haven't been longer than 2 or 3 rows of panels since before World War II.  At least not in America.

In the 1910s, a Sunday comic strip was the size a full broadsheet (that is, New York Times sized page, not a smaller "tabloid" page, the size of most comic supplements these days)  As one crtitic pointed out this means that each individual comic strip was actually larger than a 6 or 7 year old reading the strip.

I think Onstad is getting himself into comic debt.

Di-lapid-ated. Coming from the latin noun lapis, lapidis, meaning a stone.
but, damn. we're both right. The verb, dilapidare, means either: to fall into disrepair, or to be ruined by being pelted with stones.

I asked a latin teacher, and we both learned!

I think Education is from Latin origin, so it would be just something like educatio.

You know, that Cowboy Sauce movie was unjustly snubbed at the Oscars, I thought.

The cat in the thong is shivering in the cold. Perhaps the cat should wear more than a thong?

The cat in the thong does that when he's coming down from a dutch fugue.

Well, it's a little different when you have all the stars and the cell phone and the moustache, isn't it?

but, as I'm sure you will agree, many bastardizations have been adopted into the lexicon (among them the use of "quote" as a noun).

(I hate it when people use "quote" as a noun, instead of "quotation."  I even hate it when I myself do it.  Please help me.)
