   Hey - the wephone has our eyes!

   Spooky - for the we phone.

   Tomorrow is dependence day
   for those who love the Word
   So WE will rest and have some play
   Unlike the vulture bird
   The seventh day is our shelter
   from the coming storm
   so ‘independence’ party plans
   May take another form!
   We’ll read the Torah and we’ll pray
   for those in ‘Wash D.C.”
   And maybe change just might take place
   …but it’s no guarantee!

    I love it, Science Fiction references taht people still remember!!! Colossus–the Forbin Project was very spook in its time, and may still be. Skynet ex Terminator didn’t strike me as that spooky or threatening….perhaps because it is more militaristic…I dunno, it just wasn’t as spooky.

    Pab…I’m swinging the prayerwheel for you. It’s about all I can do right now but a few prayers never hurt. Keep us updated

    Pab – I’m just now playing catchup with the strip and have read your posts regarding your recent difficulties. I’m so terribly sorry this is happening to you. I’m sending lots of positive energy your way!

    I do sincerely hope that Vic won’t have to end. I only read about a half dozen comics these days (that aren’t classic repeats) and yours is one of them. I appreciate the historical/intellectual humor that is so lacking in many other strips. Keep up the fabulous work as long as you can!

    Brightest blessings that you can keep your home and your strip!

    yyyguy - I was boggled for a moment when I read:

    “attention all planets of the Solar Federation.
    We have assumed control.
    from “2112” by Rush”

    Had to look that one up - I remembered the Canadian band Rush - but not this particular album (probably the vinyl kind). I’ll have to see if I can stream some song clips. Thanks - I was a Moody Blues/Pink Floyd/Jefferson Starship fan back then.

    GJ_Jehosaphat. Yes it WAS vinyl. It’s all of side one and the quote is the last line of it. It was (I think) their fourth LP.
