Strip for 12/15/2001  
The Strip
Mail This Strip

12/15/2001:

I think this strip speaks entirely for itself and requires no further explanation. After striving so hard with the art on the last couple of strips, I feel sort of bad headed back to a generic Kip or Sil talks to the other person while sitting and reading sort of setup. So instead of dwelling on that, can I just say that in the last strip, second panel, Kip saying, "Ha! Ha!" is the saddest thing I've ever written.

Man, I still don't want to talk about my personal life. I feel like I've done nothing but talk about my personal life in recent human conversations. So, yeah, enough of that.

Finals have come and gone and I think I did really well. I'm sure my parallel computing professor thinks I'm a cocky bastard for the smart alecky comments I make before finals. If only he knew, it's just my way... The night before the test, we geeks filled the newsgroup with dorky messages. Instead of just accepting the fun, the teacher started correcting our joke code. I'm still not sure if he handled our lack of respect very well. Other professors would have shut us down early or just joined in the fun, but this one never seemed sure which path to take.

I'm packing or I was since cleaning has been deemed futile, since my random roommate will just mess things up as he moves out and I really don't want to stick around while he's doing it.

I have to replace all sorts of things when he goes. TV, Tivo, etc. But I think I'm up to the challenge.

On a final note, I found the good sake I was drinking in CA! Hakusan Napa Valley stuff. Mmmm.

Alright, back to packing.
