Granted, the site is more for us geeks, but I found this one by accident:

1. This is right on!

I sent it to another Dem friend.

2. Illiad usually throws some good Political Gems in

I like the references that the BBC is reporting and that the report is based in "Sheepleville". Both very subtle references to the current state of affairs.

3. Thanks for the laugh

I am trying to figure out just what the second creature is? I assume the main one is a hedgehog with human feet but what is the second? A fencepost, garbage can, or a kid with a bag over his head?
I know what sheeple are.

4. LOL.

Thanks for the laugh caused by your interpretation of the cast, too. (as well as to TheZoo for posting it here). It's uhm, interesting to see how this looks to the uninitiated

The first creature is the dust puppy. It is kind, naive, and very intellegent.
See http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/dustpuppy/

The second "creature" is an AI/computer, Erwin, created by the dust puppy. It's a -geek- strip, after all ;-) see

edit: made more coherent

5. Of course now I see

a dust puppy indeed!

That is a cool toon thanks for sharing the info. I sent it off to my gEEk son

I wonder what this is?

6. Ah, a fellow "geek"!

Erwin was written in...<gasp> COBOL! He's no longer Dust Puppy's friend.

I'll admit it does take a while to get used to, but the cartoons defintely are worth a peek.

Thanks for clarifying DP and Erwin. Hopefully the salespeople on the board won't relate too much to Stef!
