Well... even if you'd tried to add my last name (scroll to first letter), googling wouldn't get much better results... my last name is the 168th most common name in the USA. Incidently, cyborgs (scroll to last letter) are already here. I have a cochlear implant. If that don't make me a cyborg, I don't know what would.

Interesting theory, James. We'd always had other ideas of what a cyborg actually was, so we decided to do a little more research and it turns out that Wikipedia agrees with you. All we ask is that you let John Connor live, James.

Hi Brian,

Your cynicism is showing (Wednesday's strip) through about our new president. Will the next strip boast about some of the "Change we can believe in?" Just so you know, you aren't the only cynic out here. Me too.

--Jim Rockwood

 
We would hope that our cynicism is always showing, Jim. That's what cartoonists are for. Look, we may not know much at Team Rockwood, but we do know when someone is fudging the numbers. Obama's not the first to do this, of course, just the latest.

We'll hold off on any "change you can believe in" jokes, though. After all, we're still in Iraq, still have prisoners in Gitmo, still have great big deficits... we don't see any change to joke about.

You should add some social bookmarking links. I think it will help spread the word. As it is I just linked to the GIF for Wednesday's strip on Facebook, but it doesn't really let those who view it click through to the rest of the site. Keep up the funny work. Cheers,

--David in NY

 
You're right, David, we should do such things. It's just that whole "work" thing that keeps us from doing it. Maybe once we stop watching "Wipeout" we'll get around to it. Or, more likely, that show will kill all of our brain cells and we won't get anything done.

"Can a "W" just be one syllable?"

Actually - for those "in the know," the most common pronunciation of the Ws in WWDC is "Dub," i.e. "Dub Dub D C." Which is four syllables, and how I heard it in my head while writing my haiku.

Saying "Double-u" for those would make the acronym have as many syllables as the full title of the conference. :-)

--Bobby

 
We can't believe we never knew about that, Bobby. Of course, since we've never actually attended the Dub-Dub, how would we know? This little bit of info will make it easier for us to give out URLs in the future, however. We always hated saying " double-u double-u double-u" before everything.
