Where IS Everyone?!

The flag in the corner is the Springton flag I've shown in one other strip.

Playing the Blame Game, Huh?

I bet now Moe wishes he had asked Tom not to come near ANYONE with his red paint.

Beret Girl

A little while ago I was thinking about introducing a character that always wears a beret. Also, I was trying to think of possible last names for Tom, and Foster was one of them. I suddenly thought of the name Katie, and how Katie Foster seemed like a really good name. Then I did some sketches of my beret girl and realized that she looked like a Katie Foster (I then had to make sure there weren't any extremely famous people with that name). I then knew Tom's last name had to start with something that would come soon after Foster, and Hadley was suggested. So, now we have a Katie Foster and Tom Hadley.

Also, this is my 2012th post. It's not exactly cause to celebrate, but that's this year.

He Spoke Too Soon

I think the main reason I do school strips is to show either Daniel or Tom (well, not actually "show" him, but you know what I mean).

Clever, Very Clever!

I realized a little while ago that I never show Julia's school (she goes to Springton High School).

And the Tide Goes Out

I did do a sketch showing the moon in the Jones' backyard, but I knew beforehand I wouldn't be putting it in the strip. So I guess it was just for my own comic pleasure.

And actually, Tom has been in Moe's school for at least two years now (maybe three, as hinted by his first mention).

But Actions Speak Louder Than Words

I was trying to find my ideal "skin color" with my new beige colored pencil in this strip. That's why Moe's skin color changed in the second panel.

This Better Be The Last Double Post or Greater!

 Wow, I haven't done a Parenting Tip for quite a while!
 Actually it wasn't only "the other day;" it was almost a month ago.
 It's kind of interesting that sometimes things like this can happen to me out of the blue without much thought, when I can't think of any strip ideas through conscious thought.
Whew! Finally back on track.

So Those Are The Names of Moe's Classmates!

This strip took forever for me to get right.

I think Moe was sick that day.

Copernicium

That must be a pretty recent "old Advanced Chemistry textbook."

The reason is because Copernicium (element 112 in the Periodic Table of Elements) was known as Ununbium until last year, when the discovery of it was made official and the name Copernicium was selected.

I was originally going to say that Copernicium is the one ELEMENT that c.g.f. won't affect, but then I figured that c.g.f. would also affect the oxygen around the reaction, as well as the surface it is resting on (I'm never going to explain the actual effects of crystallic geomoptic fusion are, like the meaning of "snake tulip," as well as Tom's appearance and voice). Then I figured that I'd better make it a bit more specific, so I looked up which group Element 112 was in in the Periodic Table of Elements, and I found out it was in the metals group.

So, crystallic geomoptic fusion will affect every metal known to mankind except Copernicium.

Nanoscope

I'm not sure why I decided to have David answer these questions. In fact, I wasn't even planning on using him beyond the two strips of last week.

I used the term "nanoscopes" implying that they were supposed to be a more powerful microscope (I used the term "nanoscope" because "nano" is smaller than "micro." I was planning on using "yoctoscope," but then I figured that would be too obscure, so I used the smallest easily recognizable unit of measurement). But then I was looking online and I found out that someone really invented something and called it a nanoscope, and that it was supposed to be a more powerful microscope. From what I've read, it could be powerful enough to see inside human cells.

Wow; if you need nanoscopes to get proper results in crystallic geomoptic fusion, that must be a molecular-level reaction!

Sorry about the late post.

There Has Been a Flight Change; This Double Post Will Now Depart from Gate 6A3.

"6A3" in the post title is actually not just random numbers with a letter. It is actually this post number (#1693) in hexadecimal form. Why you would actually use hexadecimal numbers is beyond me, though.

Okay, here are the strips:
Sunday's is actually what my dad did once to my brother. I added in the last panel, though.

Also, here are the Double Post strips we've done so far:

Psshhhh! The Double-Post!
Another Double-Post
Yet Another Double-Post
Here's Another Double-Post
Double Post...Again Again
Here At I.W.M.A., We Commonly Create Double-Posts.
I'll Take the Late-Double Post Combo, Please.
Who Ordered the Double Post?
