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!

Hi, could you ask Rookee Alding (second letter) what VHS is? Actually, don't bother. I looked it up. This medium of 'tape' is fascinating. I also learned that once tape was used to store audio. Earlier still, these 'tapes' weren't even in an enclosed container.
Wow, history is amazing. But once cloning is perfected, we won't have to share this with our great grandchildren, but younger versions of ourselves. That will make genealogy so much simpler, too.

P.S. Sorry if this seemed like an infomercial for Wikipedia.

That's a nice list, DH, but you forgot 8-tracks. But then, so has everyone else.

Dear Brian,
Do you think someone can fall in love over the internet?
--Tony

|
|
|
|
Absolutely! After all, if we could fall in love with Jennifer Connelly via the movies, why shouldn't it be possible to fall in love over the internet, too?

Hey did Team Rockwood know that it was National Poetry Day on Oct 6th in the UK and that National Chemistry Week is Oct 16th ? 22nd?
October is Medical Librarians Month, Family History Month, Helmet Safety Month, World Blindness Awareness Month, Black Cat Month, Clergy Appreciation Month, Celiac Disease Awareness Month, Work and Family Month, Fire Prevention Month and Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
It's also Car Care Month, Energy Awareness Month, Book Month, Liver Awareness Month, Pet Wellness Month, Month of the Rosary, Arts and Humanities Month, Disability Employment Awareness Month, Dental Hygiene Month, Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and Hispanic Heritage Month.
It's Lupus Awareness Month, Pizza Month, Cranberry Month, Children's Health Month, Physical Therapy Month, Cyber Security Awareness Month, Christian Higher Education Month, Crime Prevention Month, Co-op Month, Safety Month, Commute Solutions Month, Vegetarian Awareness Month, and many many more.
Got to face it, Oct is the month to be. I haven't even included all the events that get just a week or a day in Oct. It's crazy how many there are.
The third Friday in October each year is National Mammography Day. Guess which US President proclaimed the first National Mammography Day? Clinton. Ha, Ha!! No doubt Bill was a little confused and thought he was going to perform the exams himself?
I think I was planning on writing a belated haiku tonite in honor of National Poetry Day but I got sidetracked researching the month of Oct. I declare Oct. to be National Month of Distractedness!

Obviously, we have no choice but to ask off for the entire month of October! And you didn't even mention Mole Day! We're sure our bosses will understand.

Ahh! Where's the new Rockwood? I'm jonesing here. Have you seen the latest BK commercials. The King is getting weirder and weirder. Keep up the good comics.

The last one we saw had the king giving a "playful" push to a construction worker standing on an open girder. Ha ha! The King "plays" with multi-story falls! Psycho.

Condolances on the beating...Did Team Rockwood personally suffer a little brain damage?
"As in, it will now be Tuesday's strip. Along with that you can expect a brand new Rockwood Mailbag to also arrive on Monday."
Ya'll meant Tuesday, right?
--Mikki
|

|
|
Eek. The game warped our fragile little minds, Mikki. We did mean Tuesday, obviously.

Ouch!! That did hurt. At least you weren't a Duke fan. You know some poor college kid will live forever with the stigma that he actually wagered cash on Duke to win.
--Bad Panda

Any college kid who bet on Duke to win that game is not qualified to be in college. He should consider a lucrative career in pizza delivery.
