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!

		April 1, 2003 Don't know who said it, but I thought this quote was appropriate in this day and age, and that you'd appreciate it. "You know the world's gone mad when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the USA of arrogance and the Germans don't want to go to war!" --Jess
		We were going to track the author down for you, Jess, honest! But it turns out no one really knows who said it anymore. The name that comes up the most seems to be Chris Rock, but it's not universal, so who knows? And more importantly, who are we? Historians? All we know is that we didn't write it, so we don't have to worry about finding out who to sue for copyright infringement. We can still laugh at it, though.
		April 1, 2003 Yeah, that's true...I probably shouldn't talk about them anymore... Maybe if I talk about Ron Zook a lot, he'll get fired! Hmm... --The Raven's Mirror
		Oh, TRM, we'd be careful about wishing for the firing of Ron Zook. After all, Bob Stoops was only 7-4 in his first season and he turned out okay. More telling, Oklahoma went through six average seasons with Gary Gibbs before they fired him, thinking they could do better. This led to one ugly season with Howard Schnellenberger and three losing seasons with John Blake. Sometimes 8 and 5 ain't all that bad.
		April 1, 2003 Your links to Michael Moore related sites furiously angered me. I mean the content of those sites did anger me. While the war may be outside the charter of the UN, how can anyone root for Saddam (unless you are a member of the Baath party). And how can you think that the number of civilian casualties would be less by standing down and ending enforcement of the no fly-zones? It seem that you are content for me to either learn html or only be able to send text to the mailbag. Too bad, I had many links to drop you. --DH
		More links? We already waste plenty of time surfing the web, DH. We hardly need encouragement in that area.
		April 4, 2003 Nice muppets reference on Friday's cartoon. --Andy
		Thanks, Andy. We thought The Muppet Show was an interesting... phenomena. Do-doo-be-do-do.
		April 4, 2003 Sorry, Team Rockwood. I've enjoyed your humor in the past, but you've left my bookmarks bar. I understand the difficulty of finding humor in the current situation of the world, but you've resorted to the weakest form. You've been trivializing the legitimate concerns of at least forty percent of the population, in favor of cheap sensationalism and herd mentality. You've been mocking an entire nation for the gall of having their own history and an actual representative government. I've really enjoyed your strip over the past year. It's been a regular stop on my daily web surfing. It makes me really sad to remove you from that routine, but I make it a practice to not support knee-jerk right-wing pandering. Thanks for the laughs. Sorry to have to leave you. --John
		Wow! We've been Dixie-Chicked! Who would have ever thought someone would get that offended over a Muppet Show reference? Well, we're sorry to see you go, John, because we love getting hits, but we pander to no one. Don't let those French doors hit you on the backside on your way out!
		April 7, 2003 Team Rockwood must have forgot to set his clocks ahead because its 12:45 a.m. CST and the website isn't updated yet. If I am going to be an insomniac, the least I ask for is a timely update of my favorite comic. Now get back to work and stop reading email. Tired of hitting the Refresh button. --Leif
		Reading email? Oh no, Leif! We were watching Iraq's Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf give a press conference on how well Iraq is doing in the war. Apparently, "denial" isn't just a river two countries over. This guy's hilarious!
		April 7, 2003 What's going on with ATAT? Is everything OK?? -Glenn
		Finally! Someone with an important question! Glenn, we'd like to tell you that... ...uh... ...well, frankly we don't know. Our emails to Jack have gone unanswered, so we're as much in the dark as you are about the current status of As The Apple Turns, other than knowing that they haven't updated in over a month. Hopefully, Jack will be back soon because until then we have to rely on far less-colorful sites for our Mac news.
