Interesting how Rod covers himself up top when Ray busts in, much like he is "doing the ladies role".

I have nothing to say about the strip, but I felt someone else had to post in this thread because that is such a totally freaky sequence of avatars.  Here is a nice furry animal for some relief.

This sequence of strips could be called "What Are You Irrationally Afraid of?"

Ray is afraid of not being successful at everything. Phillipe is afraid of not understanding the adult world. Tedor is afraid of coming off as gay. Beef is afraid of everything. Pat is afraid of being discovered as a living being with a living being's needs, whether straight or gay or whatever.

And Rod is afraid of Al-Queda, for some reason.

If entire movies, such as "Blades of Glory", can be about the fear of coming off as gay then... it is good to know what kind of pointless fear rules the mind of a gay pornography star. Arab terrorism choosing to strike a cheap hotel somewhere in suburban Northern California, it seems.

Let alone the implications of there existing a talking-cat version of Al-Queda.

Trying to reconcile that with any radical militant interpretation of Islam scares me.

What would The Prophet say about a parallel world of talking cats?

I love how Huggins runs through the shower wall.  That any wall is an escape route for anything is just great.  It adds a certain bit of magical-possibility to the whole Acme hole thing being real.  Now, I know those holes aren't for real... but maybe... maybe a wall?  Yeah, it could work.  I'll try it next time I'm in a jam.  Certainly I won't look foolish as I slam into a wall and fall unconscious to the floor, leaving me prone to all sorts of horrible things.  No.  I will escape.  It's perfect.

Quote from: that newspaper link

LIFE IMITATES ART[/url]

"All of a sudden I heard a 'meow, meow' and I thought, 'Hold up,'" said Jalisa Eneias.

When officials arrived, they too heard the animal's cries. "We got a unit here and confirmed there was a cat inside the wall," said Brian Schafer of the Pompano Beach Fire Deptartment.

With hammers in hand, firefighters broke holes in the walls of Eneias' home and eventually captured a small gray kitten.

This is not the first time a cat has been found inside this home; just a month ago, Eneias says he found a kitten behind the same wall. This latest kitty makes two in just two months.

Jonas confirms he is not a cat-lover. "I don't like cats ..." But he says he could not just leave the animal in there: "Because they are living beings."

Animal control says the kitten did not appear to be hurt, just probably a little hungry.

this is an awesome story for many reasons. 1.) it involves triple quotation marks, which i dont think i have ever seen. 2.) I would hate cats, too if they caused firefighters to break my walls every other month. 3.) The author of the news piece speculates that the cat is hungry because it has been living in a wall.

In other news, Im so hungover Id rather not be alive, Also, I still refuse to read achewood until this gay cat porn crap is over.

I just noticed that Ray's feel have little pads on the bottom, just like Hobbes's used to.

And Pat is apparently using both hands.
