   Maybe she will see your lawyers when you sue for failing to do anything about the bullying.

   One wonders why we study Geography when they keep changing all the names.

   I thought they changed it back or that the change wasn’t made official.

   No – it’s officially Myanmar. But it’s kind of like Mumbai in India – all the people who live there still call it Bombay.

   I know this is a comic, but doesn’t there seem to be a logical disconnect here? The secretary hung in there long enough to hear why Clayton was there, but the principal didn’t? And the secretary didn’t say, “Wait, this time it’s legit?”

   Plane to Burma? If you’re going to lie about being somewhere at least say you’re on a trip to Hawaii. It’ll be interesting to see why the principal is lying, especially when it comes to helping a student with bullying.

   Yah, once again Basset and Harrell failed to give this prime moment of responsibility a proper comical opportunity in which the bullies would be dealt with. Of course, they’ve also tapped the pulse of irresponsible school principals that go into denial that there’s bullying in their school, by sticking their fingers in their ears and singing ‘La-la-la-la-la’.

   How dos the principal know it’s about bullying? She thinks it’s pain in the neck Clayton. And how do you know where this is going? you people are really looking for things not to enjoy.

   Algebra was worse, every time I found ‘X’ they changed it in the next problem.

    Also, the US government refuses to recognize the name change because it was imposed by the military junta that currently runs the country — the pro-democracy forces there still prefer to call it Burma.

    I agree. The secretary should have let the principal know what was going on and the principal should be willing to listen to the students no matter who they are. It’s a comic but bullying is a serious matter.

    I guess it depends on the audience, we know this is supposed to be funny so it can’t be too simple but because of the serious nature of bullying, this just isn’t funny to a lot of people yet. I’ll keep an open mind if you do.

    This comic came at a perfect time because Obama is on his
    way to Burma, I mean Myanmar, to a big Asian meeting.
    Unlike the principal, he really is going.
