The ME-109 Minor didacticism: No such thing as a ME-109. Yes, there was an aircraft called the Messerschmidt 109, designed by Willy Messerschmidt, but its designator was BF-109, derived from the name-which-i-cannot-recall of the company that he was working for at the time. (Likewise his BF-110). At...

In WWII the US had a plane called the P-38 Lightning... the Germans called it Der Gabelschwanz teufel (The Fork Tailed Devil). Atsali has a spade at the end of her tail... Der Spaten beschattete Teufel? The P-38 as flown by the Allies in WWII against Germans 414 MPH top speed Range 1,300 miles Max ...

yep... That reminds me of Babylon5 - the Centauri had those kind of 'tails/ tentacles', that they could use for cheating at cards, among other things... oh and Marvel's Nightcrawler has a similar tail.. I guess Nadette could find a way to get Atsali 'excited' ??? :mrgreen: Yeah, about the Centauri,...

Originally I worked it out as 10 boxes per girl = 30 boxes per week 30 times 52 = 1560 boxes $20,000 divided by 1560 = $12.82 per box +/- $12.82 times 1560 = $ 19,968.00 $12.83 times 1560 = $20,014.80 ($10,000 divided by 1560 = $6.42 per box (Actual average price for GS cookies is $10 per box)) But ...

I totally missed yesterday's outburst as occurring IN the movie theater--big ho hum and didn't even take the time to look at the comments. Today i was all WTF??? where the hell are they that she got so embarrassed--oh they were in the movie theater--duh!!! My fault for not paying attention. As far a...

I've been wondering... Others have tried to get Atsali to understand how to read people too... Could it be that all the teaching in the world won't help her? That maybe she's incapable of understanding? I get the feeling it's something that isn't hardwired into her genome to even understand. Sirens...

So what happened to Devyn, Tara and Jordan? Are we done with them now? I am going to take a wild guess and say the point of that last side trip down to crazy town was just character development for Devyn so we will know what her abilities are the next time she interacts with the main characters. I'm...

The one thing about this particular strip that got me wondering was, what the heck was Connie up to when Shelly startled her by suddenly appearing.
It appeared that she was trying to sneak up on someone/something and was not expecting to see Shelly, which begs the question; what was she expecting?

I'm thinking it might be that it's less sticky to deal with characters the farther back into the mists of time you go, and more problematic dealing with what some current people might find offensive, even blasphemous, if working Abrahamic entities into the narrative. That's what I thought too... I'...

I, too, wonder what happened to the teddy bear. Was it just a sign that nothing bad would happen to Tara because she was proving to be a nice person? Or will there be some follow up where we find out that the mantis-demon-thingy piggybacked a ride out with her? It's very sweet that she's concerned ...

Now that Jordan has had her epiphany (or enema as the case may be) and fully understands just how her actions made Devyn feel, one can't help but wonder about Tara. Did she redeem herself by trying to rescue the voice calling for help? Or is she headed for rude awakening when she realizes that is no...

I just now noticed that the level of detail in the background increased significantly . . .I wonder if that means anything?

The only thing Devyn did, was to stop protecting them from seeing how their actions made her feel. Normally she has to concentrate on not showing that to other people. (I am reminded of a time when a girlfriend/significant other of mine got into a fight with her stepmother. I had to physically restr...

This is starting to make sense, but you have to go back to the beginning and re-read it a couple of times. (Paul does not use words or phrases that just "take up space" they ultimately connect later on causing many a forehead smack and phrases like, "should seen that one coming" ...

Oh no! Two people I know almost nothing about may or may not be in some kind of danger! :o Jordan: A snarky selfish bully with long hair and a penchant for making others feel less worthy in order to justify her own delusions of grandeur. Also seems to lack the common sense god gave to a can of soup...

Actually the bear may be the one to find its caught in a nightmare if she brings it back to reality from dreamland. Reminds me of the one about the guy who goes to hell and as he is walking across the hot coals to the lake of fire he sees a famous attorney sitting on a comfy sofa in the shade, eati...

Mr. Bear would like to introduce you to his friend right behind you, young lady! :shock: Looking at the placement, I think the bear IS the monster. It may change form if you look at it, sort of like how those blankety-blank Weeping Angels from Dr. Who 'freeze' when you look at them. Weeping Angels,...

http://wapsisquare.com/comic/what-next/ Not knowing where she's going... this won't turn out well... If where she's at corresponds to the school, only in a sideways jump into another dimension, she might... but still... its not looking good... I am really hoping that answering the call for help is ...
