   I find it peculiar that Martin wears the blindfold over his glasses.

   I didn’t see such a comment either. Maybe they were written after my daily visit. But now that you mention it, this strip from 2011 shows another Sedgwick possession event, just as Auntie Nell said…

   /monty/2011/01/25

   But… Jarvis is actually there… So maybe the smug commenters are right after all…

   Try something like /monty/2010/12/17 and /monty/2011/01/25

   The idea is that the user copies the string and appends it to the basic GoComics URL in the address bar.

   If you are saying that he is doing the cooking, then that’s precisely my point: He should add the amount of salt adequate for the person who can handle the least (for taste or health reasons) because everyone else can add salt at the table.

   If, like a good Wiley Bear in disguise, you are saying that he is being part of the cooking, then he doesn’t have much say. But I personally would prefer to be cooked in a low-salt environment if at all.

   BTW, I also like rather salty food. Normally I cook for myself only, and then I add as much salt or salty ingredients as I want. But when other people will be eating my food I always take them into consideration and ideally ask for their input during the cooking process.

   “Hint – Half of a drop”

   But how do you measure half a drop?  (The answer is: With a micropipette. But that is lab equipment, not a kitchen utensil.)

   That’s why God invented salt shakers. Because you can always add more salt to your portion to adjust to your taste, but it’s really hard for your relatives to remove salt that was added add cooking time.

   Or alternatively replace a letter with an identical one from a different script. Like in Pollоck, where one of the o’s is in Cyrillic script (Russian, Ukranian, etc).

   Actually I’m kind of disappointed. I thought of Goat as the kind of person (ok, creature) who would hold a job where wearing a tie is not required or even desired. Oh, well.

   It’s a miracle!

    Mr. Ratkin said libel not copyright infringement.  

    Libel because the plaintiffs could argue that Mr. Meddick is defaming Mr. Disney by publishing a comic strip that depicts his head engaging in an “unsavory” prank that never took place.

    But of course I don’t think the heirs would be so stupid even if they didn’t see the humor in the strip… see Straissand Effect.
