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!

Great cartoon, with, uh, the kid character going into that box. Did you know that the very first episode of The Twilight Zone back in 1958 dealt with this idea? A guy finds himself alone in a town with no memory, and the town is completely devoid of people. It turns out in the end that it was all a fantasy, he was in an isolation chamber, because NASA wanted to see how men would cope with being so totally alone for the two weeks required for man's first journey to the Moon. I often wonder if the day after it premiered, someone at NASA phoned Rod Serling and said, "Erm, they'll have radios."

Yes we did, Clive, as we are proud owners of The Twilight Zone Companion. In fact, it's because of this that we can correct you and say it was actually 1959 (Team Rockwood does not have first-hand knowledge of this, and is taking the book at its word). But don't be too hard on Rod. He was a writer, not a scientist. After all, a scientist would know that you couldn't mistake an asteroid for Earth.

So I take it from Monday's strip you didn't see the Golden Globes.

--Elizabeth
 

   
   
Well, you're correct in that we didn't see the Golden Globes, Elizabeth. There's only one awards show we even pay halfway attention to. However, we don't see how Dana's party conflicts with the Globes. Six days before next Sunday would have been Monday. There would have been plenty of time to watch the Golden Globes before CBS's extended Super Bowl coverage started.

Hmm...the Super Bowl halftime this year is as bad as last year's.

I suppose I could boot up the GameCube and play a quick game of Madden 2004 and see who the game thinks will win. NCAA Football 2004 has correctly predicted every game I've simulated (all the bowl games).

Oh no, TRM! You don't like Janet (or, Miss Jackson to you, 'cause you're being nasty)? Well, to each his own, we suppose.

As for your simulations, we're going to save you some time. Someone already beat you to it. But hey! Playing is fun, so don't let us stop you. Enjoy!
