hmm... Tis true what they say... the camera does add 10 pounds...

[Ozymandias]

I noticed that the newsreader wasn't a sparkly mercury-coated Isolde. Shame.

Man all the bush bashing here is driveing me crazy <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I notice Timulty manages to hit the airwaves years before his brother.

[Ibun]

Yeah I'll bet Avery will freak when he finds out. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I like how this strip pokes fun at cable news. The news report simultaneously contradicts itself (no news network is excluded from this), and when the network can't find someone important to interview they start pick almost totally random people (its like when newscasters ask local rednecks what the tornado sounded like).

[Henohenomoheji]

i wonder if "turtle" is a kind of truck?

He'll buy the truck as well.

[Henohenomoheji]

It's already been said!!!<br><br>Isolde's with the press, She wants to get caught!

The reporters name is clever. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[Dr. Dos]

Maybe the crashed into a turtle in the moat.

It's little things like that scroll bar and secondary gags like that that make O&M great.<br><br>What I want to know is why GL needs an entire truckload of mercury thermometers for medical supplies when the population of the nation is 2. If Llewellyn gets sick or something, isn't his temperature always going to be well above 98.6F regardless? Fire's a lot hotter than that. And I don't think Ozy gets sick that much. You know, I've never seen a strip with Ozy or Millie sick. Wouldn't a strip with one of them home from school sick have great potential for a story arc?
