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!

What do you think of the *old* comic strip Li'l Abner? (The newt sort of resembles a shmoo.) It's just my natcheral curiousity.

--Elizabeth
 

   
   
Since that was before our time, we don't have a whole lot of opinions regarding Li'l Abner, Elizabeth. Frankly, we think it's claim of the "greatest comic strip of all time" is a title that belongs to someone else, but that's just our opinion. Yours may vary.

I wonder why the panels of the strip are laid out horizontally instead of vertically.

--wondering man
 

   
   
Because we don't like to scroll, Mr. Man. However, if scrolling is your thing, you might want to check out a strip that does orient itself vertically.

Why does Dana slouch so much when she's sitting on the couch? I mean, I could understand it if it was Mitch or Al, but Dana's a doctor! She should know better. :-)

--Dan
 

   
   
Eek! Reality intrudes on TV watching! Why does a doctor slouch when she should know better? For the same reason that some doctors, brain surgeons no less, ride motorcycles without helmets. Sometimes not everything makes sense.

Looks like the Family Circus website has a 'takeoff' section lacking Rockwood. You need to submit your fare...

--Will
 

   
   
Youch! Lest some of you think that all of these 'takeoffs' are candy-coated tributes to that circular comic, you should take a look at this one.

We'll admit that we didn't consider submitting our little exercise to Bil himself, Will, but now that we've seen some of these, we're thinking that might not be a bad idea. There's still no guarantee that they'd run, of course, but the precedent has certainly been set a lot harsher than us.

You mean, even after someone writes a letter pointing out the fact that your ads still ask us to order the "2002 Calendar" as late as this fine month of October 2002... and after you've mentioned that you'll be producing 2003 calendars... that you haven't gotten around to changing the ads yet? Team Rockwood doesn't have anybody to delegate to? Is that it?

Hmmm?

--James
 

   
   
Okay, okay...you got us James. The ads are finally down. However, the new calendars aren't done (or, for that matter, really started) either. So now you'll have to exist in limbo for weeks until the new calendar is ready. (Hint: If you wanted to order a gift at, say, the start of the Christmas shopping season, you might find something here...).
