Express yourself!

Have you always wanted to let Team Rockwood know just what you were thinking? Do you wonder why the panels of the strip are laid out horizontally instead of vertically? Or do you have sensitive documents that will bring down the government? In any case, we want to know! Just fill out your name and e-mail address, then let 'er rip! No question or comment is too bizarre for Team Rockwood to take a stab at, and if we can get enough mail coming in, this page will be updated weekly! (Unlike the old mailbag page, which got updated about four times in two years.)

So consider this an experiment in web interactivity. Or, consider it a way to artificially inflate our hit count. Either way, just write in!

OK, I'm guessing here but: "A guy walks into a bar with a bag . He puts the bag down and pulls out a 12 inch guy playing the piano. The bartender asks where the guy got the mini piano player. So he pulls out a magic lamp and says 'Here, rub this lamp.' The bartender rubs it and a huge genie pops out! the genie says 'I shall give you one wish.' The bartender says 'I wish for a million bucks!' Soon the bar is filled with ducks of every kind. Then the bartender says angerly 'I said a million BUCKS not Ducks!!' "

Well, Paul, while we applaud you for trying to figure out the joke in last Monday's strip, you didn't quite get it. Furthermore, we're not going to tell you the answer yet because we got a really cool haiku about it that did get the joke right. I guess you'll all have to come back Thursday to find out what it is, eh?

I recently read your comics for the first time. I think they are cool.

I cant tell you my real name.

--"x"
 

   
   
That's fine, "x," because we're not going to run the name you gave us. What kind of Moe do you think we are?

On a related note, we once actually got a telemarketer to call us back after we gave them the name "Ben Dover" during one of their computerized dialing calls. We had to hang up on them we were laughing so hard.

The only down side of my birthday is everyone is usually crying at the birthday party. That's what I get for being born on Tax Day.

How many folks are there in Team Rockwood? Maybe you could just give a rounded-off ball-park estimate...

--Mikki
 

   
   
Well, we hope that there wasn't much crying at your birthday party yesterday, Mikki, and you'll get only the best wishes from the 1 to 1,000 members of Team Rockwood. Sorry we can't be any more specific, but we've been forbidden from saying any more by the Director of Homeland Security.

By the way, that lame excuse for not answering your question replaces the last decade's overused lame excuse, I could tell you but...

See, you already know the rest of it, don't you?

Dude, I wonder if Skip secretly owns Dell. . .

--Q.
 

   
   
Eww!

Eww! Eww! Eww! No, Skip is definitely not, in any way, related to the Dell dude. Furthermore, we don't really understand why anyone would buy a computer based on the advice of an Eddie Haskell clone.

Besides, just because Skip says "dude" a lot doesn't mean he should be lumped in with computer-peddling losers. There are plenty of repectable people who say "dude," like...uh... or maybe...

Okay, maybe there aren't really any good examples. You'll just have to take our word for it.

Just wanted to let you know I have a link to your site on my webpage. I like your comic, hence the reason I have chosen to link. I hope you don't mind. If you would like to check out my site, it is www.bluemooncomic.com. Thanks,

--Terry Pearson
 

   
   
Do we mind? Of course not! In fact as part of our secret deal with the Director of Homeland Security, soon Rockwood will be required by law to be linked from 25 percent of all websites in an effort to defeat domestic terrorism. We'd tell you what all of that actually meant, but then we'd have to kill you.

Dear Mr. Lundmark,

I just am writing to say your strip has been consistently funny ever since I first dicovered it on Bill Amend's website. But hey, wouldn't one genius cartoonist be able to recognize another? (Ever notice how many great cartoonists names start with "B"? Bill Watterson, Bill Amend, Brian Lundmark. Too bad your name isn't Bill!)

Keep up your hilarious work! Sincerely,

--Ric
 

   
   
Thanks, Ric, we're flattered you'd put us in with such company. However, we do have to point out that you have to take the good Bills with the bad. Everyone at Team Rockwood is fine with their name just the way it is.
