yesterday, I had my friend read the Cartiledge Head strips. she said "huh, that's pretty cool." Then I told her that mr inconstadt rarely approaches the brilliant weirdness of that arc. today, I eat my words with fork and spoon.

Yeah, that's funny, I was just thinking that this feels very much like we're headed for another Cartiledge Head-esque bout of surrealism.

Speaking of Hanna-Barbera, did anyone else immediately think of that stretch sfx Mr. Fantastic made in those old Fantastic Four cartoons when Ray's legs started elongating?  Because I know I did.

They were actually headed to Mexico anyway,

Yes, but now they are magically being kidnapped to Mexico. That's totally different.

You know what I like best?  That every time I think that a particular story arc is looking boring, he surprises me like this.

I don't think they're being kidnapped, the chopper is taking them to where they were going, it's just doing it's job.

And at least it's not raining inside. That's got to be a plus.

Well said Linnea, if anyone wants me I'll be fasting and flagellating myself in the desert for 40 days as a pennance.

Don't anyone dare point out that there is a spelling error in Doc's last post. For all you know they spell it differently in Australia.

Ah damnit. You know I spent like 4 minutes on google making sure I got 'flagellating' right too? I'm going to leave it, just to be wild. Because that's how I roll.
Oh no he did not just use because at the beginning of a sentence!

This is the saddest thing.  All the more so because, um, did you ever notice that 'spell check' button down at the bottom there when you are writing a post?

To be honest, no. I've somehow managed to filter that button out of my consciousness for the last... however long I've been here.
Of course we spell 'spell check' differently over here.

I apologize for being an anal-retentive grammar freak. It's in my nature, I cannot help it.
