To Binkley, she is 100% adorable. If I have to be honest though, I’ve always liked Binkley’s first girlfriend Blondie, the one he accused of “carbonating his hormones.” She was a breath of fresh air in this strip. Pity she only lasted one week.
Even the planet Earth breathes. There are two surges of oxygen each year, as each hemisphere enters summer. That’s as close to the definition of breathing as it gets.
Troub was the name of an original character in Wizard of ID. A minstrel our troubadour, he was usually seen in the throne room giving a zinger to whatever punchline the strip had.
Plankton is pretty much the Sea’s version of grass. There’s a lot of it around and it’s not limited to a 2D surface either. That and Krill (tiny shrimp) are the bottom of the food chain and reproduce accordingly.
Used to be so anyway. Since the 12 inch snow that closed everything for a week in the mid-90’s, an Inch will close schools for a morning unless it’s a hilly area.
I like to investigate charities before I give to them. You’d be surprised how little goes to the supposed recipients sometimes. There are organizations that rate charities on how much of the Net (ie after expenses) goes to the intended recipients. I won’t donate unless that amount is at least 90% because no matter how good the cause my donation is more useful if more of it gets where it’s supposed to go.
You’re actually right. There are aggressive selling viruses that annoy you until you buy the program they are selling, which might remove the selling virus but doesn’t do anything else. The worst virus I’ve ever fought was the “thinkpoint” virus. It took me 2 days to clean it off my sister’s computer and I missed something so I had to do it again a few days later. At that time there wasn’t any program that could remove it and I doubt there are any now. It’s a monster.
