Welcome Aboard, Sir or Ma'am... and I'm glad that you liked the comic well enough to subscribe... even if the reason you finally signed up was just because of one strip, we hope you'll hang around and post some more, too!

Now, who's going to clean up all these streamers and confetti and balloons that dropped from the ceiling?

The Library is self-healing. It'll be cleaned up.

Perhaps, but it'd be better not to wait until the Library gets around to running the autosweep. Apos are terribly allergic to Silly String, and we wouldn't want them to be any more cranky and irritable than usual, would we?

I'll get the Kirby and the extension cord... one of you guys can drive the Zamboni this time.

Sorry about that, jwhouk. I think you were on a vacation/photo shoot in Minneapolis when we held the meeting at which the donation was announced. Close proximity to all of those caramel lattes seems to have jammed the signal to your phone when we tried to Skype you in... :(

Heh... Zambonis generally don't have clutches. They're one-speed machines.

Unless you let a redneck with a need for speed at it. I've heard of lawnmowers hitting 80mph.

... so... if this thing isn't a zamboni... what did I just demolish Nudges' lunch, two book columns and an ancient urn with?... and why was that thing in the library?... a racing lawnmower?!? WHAT THE HELL IS A RACING LAWNMOWER DOING IN HERE?!? ... and why didn't anyone tell me this is not a zamboni...?


- dudes... in truth, I am a political refugee... from the People's Soviet Socialist Republik of Kalifornicatia. As a known conservative, I was an 'enemy of the state' and had to flee. As such, I don't know a zamboni from a player piano... I just always wanted to drive one...
