Rockwood: The Rockwood Mailbag.

The Rockwood Mailbag

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!

		May 21, 2002 Heh....I's give your mailbag a C+. Someone said "yeah" and you said nothing about drinking. (C+....Did you know that was my grade in Computer Science? Yea, I know my jokes suck. YOU'RE the cartoonist.) Oh yeah, DRINK! oops, drink again for that second yeah. Ooops..... --Jaimie
		Yeah, Jaimie, actually we did know your Computer Science grade was a C+. And we're quite concerned. Your teacher seems especially worried that on the days after West Wing airs, you always show up wearing dark glasses. Something needs to change, don't you think? Yeah.
		May 21, 2002 You know, I agree that Battlefield Earth had major, gigantic, COSMIC problems. For one thing the aliens stuffed their drawers (really big) probably to make Travolta look all manly. I, however, managed to enjoy the movie quite a bit due to the fact that I watched it with Matt and Matt (two different people) and we totally Mystied the entire movie! It was hilarious! So in response, God has not forsaken thee...he gaveth thee Mystery Science 3000th. :) Maybe they should have marketed Battlefield Earth as a comedy (which it was) rather than drama (which it was so pathetically not). --Mikki
		Fortunately, Team Rockwood was spared from Travolta and his dreadlocks. Our friends warned us in advance to stay away. And they saw it in the only other way that it would be tolerable. Understand? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah...
		May 28, 2002 Well, it was downright evil of Interland to have Rockwood down like that. I didn't notice much, I was out of town this weekend. When I checked Monday, I contributed the absence of Rockwood to the fact that for some crazy reason, Netscape loads many sites strangely if I run AIM at the same time (and let me tell you, that sucks dirt). And now, I'm looking forward to reading a nice new mailbag but there is none. Since Interland has clearly joined forces with the dark side (who else would want to stop us from reading the finest strip after C&H?), can Yoda come over here and lightsaber their *****? --Liza
		Well, that'd be nice, except that Yoda's not only in a galaxy far, far away, but he's also dead (remember, kids, we're in prequel-land). And even if he weren't, we don't really think that multiple-beheadings would speed up our tech support, no matter how deserved they were.
		May 28, 2002 #1, Great strip. Yes, I'm one of the ones coming from theforce.net to see ya, but it was so funny, I had to review all that you had in your archives. It's bookmarked and I will continue to return. #2, C+ (just for the sake of rating something C+... Love how everything is a C+ now...L) #3, Keep up the great work and thanks. --Bill "B-"
		No, Bill "B-," thank you! We're happy to have as many Star Wars fans aboard as possible. With this kind of support, soon we will rule the galaxy! HA HA HA HA... uh... heh. Yeah.
		May 29, 2002 Man oh man. I just read ALL of the Rockwoods in one sitting! I thought I'd just look at one or two, but nooooo, I had to read them all! Good stuff! Keep up the good work! --Sheldon
		Sheldon has, of course, unknowingly proven that our mind control plan is working. Team Rockwood's crack team of scientists hired from the potato chip industry have created a web site where no one can "read just one." With this kind of evil mind control, soon we will rule the galaxy! HA HA HA HA... uh... heh. Yeah.
		May 30, 2002 One question...how did the staff of AtAT get on the station? Do they know the same people Lance Bass does? --Jeff Mierzwa
		Well, Jeff, we don't really keep track of Jack Miller's friends, but we're going to go out on a limb and say that he's not a dues-paying member of 'N Sync's fan club. We're not exactly sure how he got his family up to the station, though. Our best guess is they snuck onboard a shuttle when everyone else was coming back from the Attack of the Clones premiere. He's a crafty one!
		May 30, 2002 Did you go to the University of Oklahoma? Your style and technique look awfully similar to 'Joe Colledge', a cartoon that appeared in that school's paper in the early 90's. --Dan
		Please, Dan, that was "Will" Colledge, and yes, that was us way back when we were embarrassing the student government by getting 10 percent of the vote for president. We still contend that an all-cartoon platform was the way to go.
		May 30, 2002 Just found your strip during my most recent look-see at the comatose AtAT site. I especially liked your Engineer's Week strips and your hassling of lawyers. But, truth to tell, I'm an engineer in law school (gasp!) - I figure that I can do the most damage from the inside! --Jerry Lorengo
		An engineering lawyer? Isn't that an oxymoron? We implore you to turn back before it's too late!
		May 31, 2002 Hi. Found your site from the link at "Apple Turns", and enjoyed it. Just a geek point: I think the Earth would look a lot bigger than that from 250 miles up... --Lawrence D'Oliveiro
		Holy pocket protectors, Lawrence, you've outgeeked us! We'd love to blame the tiny Earth on some kind of optical discrepancy in the station's windows, but we'd just be trying to cover our sub-geeky behinds. In the future, we'll either make a bigger Earth or move further out into space.
		May 31, 2002 So, where are you the Rockwood message boards? What? There aren't any? Man, you need to get on the ball. My grandma's knitting website has a message board. You know, if you don't have the space, I bet there's a Rockwood fanatic or two out there that would set one up for you. Probably, all you need to do is ask. Oooh! Oooh! I just had a great idea while I was typing. How about this? You can have contest, and the person who puts up the best message board for you gets a guest appearance in the strip. I bet that'd motivate people. - Z a c h
		We're still mulling over the idea of message boards, along with several other changes we might or might not make over the summer. After all, if we add yet another way for you to waste your time here at Rockwood, you all might only get C plusses in your Computer Science classes. And wouldn't we all be up the creek then? Yeah...
