She had to be at least twenty-one. She drank rum on her date with Locke. <br><br>But anywho, I'm going to guess that she had glasses as a kid and got contacts as an teenager and then later got glasses again possibly because its less of a hassle.<br><br>I'm also going to speculate that I'm looking too deeply into this.

I accept your challenge! Let us duel... TO THE BATTLEFIELD!

I've noticed that DCS decided to make them less human by saying "paw" instead of "hand" and "anything to see that tail wag" instead of "anything to see you happy," they mean the same thing but he has personified the furries in his comic so much that I'm not sure if he does change words like that often. Just an observation, though Millie is so cute when she wags her tail... Well anything to make her tail wag is as good for me as it is for her <!--emo&:wag:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ailwag.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tailwag.gif' /><!--endemo-->.

Mr. Simpson has always (if my memory searves me) been on top of such things. He's realy imersed O&M in an anthropomorphic universe. He does change words liek that often adn the characters almost always take advantage fo these diferences when it;s availalbe.<br><br>My question is: what is the diference betwen eatign meet and canabalism?

[DesertFoxCat]

the number of people that defend them?

One's eating other species, the other is eating your own.<br><br>I don't really mind the little things ("discrepancies", if you must) that change. If it works, and it's not blindingly obvious that the whole plot wouldn't work if those changes weren't made, then it's fine by me <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[Caoimhin]

I didn't say I minded them. Infact I think its good that those changes were made. Actually now that I think about it I have really bad memory problems, so I probably forgot about some things in O&M... I need to read through the archives again when I get a chance.

Note in the Mr. Rogers tribute that Ms. Mudd 30 years ago looks about the same age as Millie 5 years ago, which suggests she was about 24 when she split up with Captain Locke. I don't think Llewellyn would have taken more than a year to notice that the two of them were getting too close and on a pathway to heartbreak. Ergo, either Ms. Mudd finished college later than most of us, or she was in secondary school when she met Locke.

[norsenerd]

The arc very clrey points that Ms. Mudd was in law school at the time.<br><br><a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2002/om20020805.html' target='_blank'>http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2002/om2002 ... r><br><img src='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2002/om20020805.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />
