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!

		January 13, 2004 On Monday's strip, Will was reading the newspaper. Two questions: 1)What was the Jacko incident he was reading about? 2)How do they get papers delivered there? They must have one HECK of a delivery boy! --mark
		Sharp eyes there, Mark! The headline to that paper reads "Jacko Innocent," whereas the inside reads "Yeah, right." We like to sneak things like that into the strip occasionally, but it's not often that they're written big enough to be legible. As for the newspapers, there is no paperboy with an incredible arm. Instead, the papers are printed on the station, then recycled. We suppose the station's inhabitants could just read all their news off of a computer screen, but in much the same way that e-books didn't replace books, we don't think the internet is going to replace newspapers. At least, not until they're reprogrammable, but that's still a ways off.
		January 13, 2004 Just thought you might want to know that "Previous Week's Mail" is linked to the wrong date. Did the Rockwood crew just get thrown into a time warp or something? And does that mean we have to relive 2003 all over again? Geez, I hope not... --Tris
		Whoops! Thanks for proofreading, Tris. Occasionally we miss little things like that, and it's nice to have readers backing us up. And no, it wouldn't be good to relive 2003. At least, it wouldn't, unless we could make certain changes...
		January 15, 2004 SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM? Sounds like those bloody Monty Python Vikings!! I hate Spam, Sam I am! --T. Geisel
		We all do, Doc. At least, the email kind, not necessarily the food kind. After all, who doesn't like spicy ham?
		January 16, 2004 Karstyn? Karstyn? o_O. How awkward that will be in middle school. Poor kid... --Drew
		You say that now, Drew, but we think it'll be just like naming him Sue. By the time the official nephew of Team Rockwood reaches middle school, he'll be described in mythical proportions. "Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks. His eyes were like steel, cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red like the fires of Hell." Yes, the name "Karstyn" will be properly respected.
		January 16, 2004 Did you include the BigTrak because you came across the hacking of it or just happened to have it in this weeks strips? By the way, is html allowed in this email box? --Claude
		You can send us html, Claude. It just shows up as text, but we know how to cut-and-paste. As for the Big Trak, we just always thought they were cool when we were growing up.
		January 19, 2004 The Panthers? How did THEY get to the Super Bowl? I suppose beating the Bucs twice helped...though that might not be saying much. --The Raven's Mirror
		Defense, TRM, the same reason the Patriots are in it. When, as a visiting team, you can hold the home team to three points when they average 23 per game, you've got something good. We're predicting a defensive struggle. Our advice? Take the "under."
