Now if anyone knows why Wilbur and Kurt suddenly got so dressed up, please tell me. Unless it will destroy our relationship.

Note to self: How in the world do I draw two adult men of vastly different ages who have 'bonded' enjoying one another's company without it coming across as a scene from "Brokeback Mountain?" ... Can't be done. Don't even try. Just go with the flow.

NOTE: "Three Little Birds" has been replaced with the theme song from "The Courtship of Eddie's Father."

This plot development makes a lot of sense. We are all so familiar with Wilbur's methods of persuasion (nagging, whining and odd body odors), that Kurt's complete reversal of opinion is perfectly logical without our having to sit through any tedious action.

Look at me. Look how happy I am now. I have Glee written all over my face!
In fact, if you'd like, I'll put my fist against my forehead melodramatically as well. Then you will know for certain my sympathy is true, despite my inability to compare myself to you, despite the week-long comparison I've been making.

Omaha World-Herald Loses Sense of Humor
Thanks to Willy who let us know that the Omaha World-Herald is "changing its approach to comics." Can you guess who's getting axed? But great news: they published the phone number and email address that you can use to let the editors know what you think! That's always fun.

Hey, that's far out so you heard him too!
And thus we say good-bye to Helen Martin and her David Bowie accompaniment. I must mention how easy it has been to find appropriate David Bowie lyrics for every Helen Martin strip. And I must ask, do you think she really hung up on Dawn, or do you think she just said "Click" and is now listening quietly? Regardless, Dawn is having another one of those "!" thought balloons, which is helpful to those of us who don't really understand how shocked Dawn is. But most of us knew she was stunned when her eyes were jolted back to blue.

You shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
I'll give you television
I'll give you eyes of blue
"Also, I have a tattoo on my lower back that says 'JIM.' Now, is there any other personal information you'd like to trick me into disclosing while I'm so (parenthetically) drunk?"

Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold
Golden years, gold whop whop whop
Is there any doubt that Helen Martin is a lonely old heiress who has seen more than her share of sadness brought on by her decadent life of leisure? Look at her eyes, and the anger masking a sense of deep longing. Her highball glass full of very red wine. Her porcelain princess phone and its classy but ultimately colorless design. Not to mention she has an embarrassing case of the (parenthetical) hiccups.

By all means, give Martin's sister a call. I'm sure she'll be thrilled to hear from you and answer your questions about... about... just what do you intend to ask her? Did Martin like to fish? Maybe Martin's sister can give you some of her deceased brother's DNA.

By the way, I like your pencil collection. I think my collection has a little more variety, but your tenth grade ceramics project is a much better pencil holder than my 1990 Justice League of America mug.

- Shall I comment on Dawn's lazy eye that just won't focus on her computer screen in either panel?
- Or Tate College, which I haven't heard mentioned since Harold Lloyd's 1920's silent classic The Freshman (which I loved when I was in high school, by the way)?
- Or the odd design of Dawn's computer - is it a laptop? If so, how does it close?
- Or Wilbur's most excellent portrait, and why doesn't Dawn have a photo of Wilbur with her dead mother instead?
- Or the lack of lumbar support from Dawn's desk chair?
- Or should I focus on where this story might be headed instead? Will Dawn find Martin Clark and claim to be his daughter?
- And how does a nasty rich kid from Florida survive the harsh Boston winters?
- Has anyone stayed at a Clarkville Resort in Florida? Are they nice? Do they have HBO?

Clearly, he's a much better writer than Wilbur.
By the way, I've added a new song to the Charterstone Jukebox. See if you can guess why.

Wilbur may want to stay off the Interwebs for a while.
