I think it’s because my faith is going through a pretty bad time at the moment. Despite most of my church experience being the happy, laughter filled type you seemed to have missed out on, I’ve recently struggled a little on my walk with God…stuck in a layby, if you will. The way I tend to describe this phase is that life is questioning my beliefs and I’m not bothering to answer. It’s painful when you get to this state, realising you don’t know what you’ve so firmly believed in for the previous majority of your life…so somehow, this comic strikes a chord with me…I do want to believe, against all odds, I’m worried I’m losing Him.

I realise this may mean nothing to you as a non-believer, and that I’ve just ranted on for a paragraph of nothingness, but you know how I like to ramble.

Possibly, the script was written by Dan Brown (that is how bad I think it was) and the movie was directed by Michael Bay?

Apparently it’s one case where knowing is not a good thing.

I don”t want to spoil it for anyone else (is that possible) but where did the numbers come from? Was it Mr god? Was it aliens? Was it a lame script writer with delusions?

Wow, can’t wait until 2012 comes out.

I picture a plague of amateur film makers desperately knocking out cheap zombie flicks whilst it lasted.

Sydney a few days ago. Some fairly apocolyptic imagery going on there.

The comic does have an epic feel to it, I hope it raises a fair whack of moolah for your nephew education!

Severe thunderstorms and tornadoes are characteristic of the city during certain times of the year, and though some lower lying roads and residential areas might see water getting into basements, I cannot remember a time in nearly three decades where subdivisions turned into lakes. And, Six Flags, an amusement park, is under water!

And this circles back to the interpretations of your illustration. Who are we to think that the climate and geology of the earth won’t continue to change (for the better or the worse) even if we do our best to treat the planet well?

Global warming? Bad city planning? Freak storm? Act of god?

I blame the weathermen… it’s a sinister plot to give them more airtime.

Other areas to the northwest and northeast aren’t doing so well.

It looks like you are being smited… smitten…

I know it’s made national news, not sure how international it’s gone, yet.

OK, I’ve made it so, available through cafepress. I’ve put a link in the post.

I decided that any money I get from that should go to Stan. I’ve made one stipulation that the money is to be spent on educational books only, preferably scientific ones, but also anything that has a high fact content.

I guess that was more of a reflection to my sensitivity and belief in the fact that I can do better… will do better.

And thank you for commenting, I really appreciate it. If anything it keeps me going to the next strip.

I mean if anything, surely these places should be full of joy and laughter… and I imagine some of them are… but for the most part they have as many laughs as a rerun of [insert sitcom of your choice].

And I haven’t been hailed since I was a taxi driver (not true, I can’t drive).

All hail, Blake, Mulder, Scully and York Gregory!

(I think that’s praise, someone may have to correct me, but “well done” didn’t seem enough somehow…)
