In Space, No One Can Hear You....

TODAY'S STRIP

Excuse me for a moment.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Thanks. And no, that's not my "Howard Dean."

That's my reaction to today's big Sunday strip. Remember what I was saying yesterday about wide open spaces? Yup, Stantis does it again - this time it's a full color panel where half of it is simply blue. Way to make good use of colors, Scoots.

But the bigger offense is that today's strip MAKES NO SENSE. Winslow has been eaten by a snake. Potential for funny. But then Winslow says something about wanting to whine, but he doesn't want to judge the snake's "lifestyle." Of course these are both slams on liberals, because all liberals are whiners who are open to alternative lifestyles. But what the heck does a snake eating a coyote have to do with lifestyles? Did he choose to be a carnivore? Apparently, according to Stantis, yup - the Intelligent Designer had nothing to do with a snake eating animals apparently.

I wonder if this has something to do with an article I read yesterday:

http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-dinosaurs27aug27,0,6894033.story?coll=la-home-local

According to Creationists (and I'm betting supporters of Intelligent Design), the dinosaurs (and I'm betting snakes) used to be vegitarians. Then Adam and Eve sinned, so they decided to start eating meat. So ultimately it's not the snake's fault he chose the lifestyle of eating meat - it's the devil's. Who, you might remember, appeared as a snake when he tempted those two naked teenagers.

Once again:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
