As a programmer for a School Management Software company, I found this both funny and scary.

I loll'd .. this has been my experience with line issues before (and being told 'we don't support linux even after I am telling them I am getting a line issue on the modem, nothing to do with my computer)
it is so true it hurts.

Somehow, this made me think of Croc.The guy is doing it wrong. He forgot to reactivate the perambulic merimbulator in the pentalobular 'S' figure configuration (necessary to activate the Dilduwunker phase retractivity mode of the grinoopticolyscimation substrate) - he also should replace the wiring loops with an eleven-phase N/S transformer which provides better reluctant coupling between the two phasors.
Not a major flaw, as the only side effect from omitting the above steps would be merely a high energy thermonuclear detonation.

ahhh Croc you made a mistake there with your wiring loom... they are now refered to as filaments of cyprium encased in a polyurethane housing...

I can't remember if we'd had tom the Dancing Big before. I suspect yes but in case not, here's an atheisty one (though the comic canvasses a range of issues albeit from a US perspective)

Slave to the algorithm.
Comics. I devoured them. I had hundreds. And Mad, Cracked, Sick and of course Help. But in the sixties, I discovered underground comix. Zap Comix, Yellow Dog, Feds And Heads etc. Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Gilbert Shelton (The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers), and others.
R. Crumb lives in the south of France. He's been unbelievably prolific. He's recently completed the whole Book of Genesis, all 50 chapters, 224 pages, 100's of panels, an epic work. He advises adult supervision for minors.
He declined attending the Sydney graphic art expo when a tabloid described him as a filthy sex pervert. Real fear of assassination.
Honestly, friends, for those who don't know Crumb's work, (and 20's style band and awesome 78's collection) do check him out on the net. I'll bet he has no more than rudimentary skills on computer. Love his work, especially his women.

I knew you would already be onto Crumb. Naturally.
