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!

		November 1, 2003 Great news! You were probably already aware of this, but Opus is returning to the Sunday paper! --DAH! (and Ack! Thppp!)
		Great! Now if we could just get Bill out of retirement...
		November 2, 2003 Stoops: "Just another stepping stone on the way to the championship." ESPN Announcer guy: "The question is, can anyone beat Oklahoma. The answer? No." I think those two quotes summarize everything. Oh, and Go Gators! I think the Bulldog's new theme song should be "Oops, I Did It Again." --The Raven's Mirror
		We think the question is, can anyone hold Oklahoma under 50? We know that no one from Texas can.
		November 3, 2003 Seriously dude, how many people does the term Team Rockwood include? Can we get an estimate on the Team Rockwood population? Does it include real people or figments of someone's imagination? Are you counting the space station personnel? Do "me", "myself" and "I" make up part of Team Rockwood? (Are you just hoping to speed up the fame process following the examples of Bob Dole, Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders?) Bottom line here--do you need help? --Mikki
		Well, Mikki, the Department of Homeland Security won't let us disclose the exact number of members in Team Rockwood, but we can guarantee you that it's more than one. After all, Brian wasn't updating the site from a lake in northern Canada back in July (they didn't even have phones there). Let's just say that there's more than one and less than a million.
		November 3, 2003 shake shake I-I-I'll b-be f-fi-fine unt'l n-n-next w-weekkk! --Spike
		Hopefully you made it the whole week without us, Spike. Just for future reference, though, there are other ways to spend your time on the web.
		November 10, 2003 Okay, It is late, I'm in my right mind. 62 mph * 13 hours = 806 mi. Since there's only about 600 mi to the south, you went to Minneapolis, MN 1705 mi to I-35 makes 806/1705 = 47% of I-35 --Robert T.
		Well, Robert, you're partially right. You got Brian's starting location correct, but we're not exactly sure how you got 1,705 miles for the length of I-35. It's actually shorter than that, so that makes your percentage answer incorrect. Thanks for playing, though!
		November 11, 2003 "Oh, you're right that Kepler is crazy, but certainly not like Kim Jong Il is crazy." Oh yes, I definitely agree with you there. He would have the makings of a crazy dictator if he was given the space, but, fortunately, he hasn't been. Thank goodness. Hey, remember when the Rockwood crew went hunting for bin Laden? First of all, have they made any progress recently? Second of all, could they help out at all with Korea? -Ryan
		Nothing yet, Ryan. It's hard to find someone who spends all of his time in a cave (assuming, of course, that he's actually still alive). As for the Koreans, no one really knows what to do with them right now, and the station isn't a first-strike vehicle. We're sure they could help somehow, but we don't know how that would be until someone does something.
		November 11, 2003 Just a wild guess, but I bet you drove to Minneapolis. So, that would mean you spent the entire time on I-35. --Leif
		True, Leif, Brian did spend all his time on I-35. But then, that was the given part of the question, so it's not too surprising that you got that right. As for Minneapolis, that's also correct, but you didn't show your work! For shame...
