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!

Did you catch the Stones, AC/DC, Rush etc.. in Toronto from way up there? Over 500,000 of us down here did. But what was Justin Timberlake doing up on stage with Mick???? I thought you had a space-based laser. Throw us a bone down here, guys.

Cheers!

Unfortunately, Simon, that concert happened after Team Rockwood left Canada, so we didn't get a chance to see any of it, although apparently the TV coverage wasn't all it could have been, and judging by pictures, it would have been hard to get close to the stage had we actually been there. And besides, we weren't really paying attention to the news when we were up there, so we didn't know Justin Timberlake was an open target. Sorry.

Oh, incidentally, we'd just like to point out that The Flaming Lips, who shared the bill with Rush, AC/DC, et. al., happen to be from Norman. Not that we're big fans, but we do kind of like their last album.

Nothing about Bob Hope? Im surprised.

--?
 

   
   
Well, "?," we didn't really have a joke. To be honest, we were never huge Hope fans to begin with, as he was a little before our time. However, we do think that this is a really good article on him. Make of that what you will.

Ok, good. I have never really taken offence to anything in the comics before, so I'm glad I wasn't the only one who was miffed by that Strom-bashing Boondocks. I mean, good god, hes DEAD...let it be...*sigh*

The worst thing about that particular Boondocks strip was that it put us in the uncomfortable position of defending Strom Thurmond, and it should be fairly obvious that that doesn't really describe our positions on his opinions.

The other thing is it forced us to put The Boondocks in the same category as The Family Circus: comics that aren't funny. "Edgy" and "controversial" doesn't necessarily mean "good."
