That's what the police are telling us to do today. (In case you're reading this in the archives, today is August 10 2006, day of the London plane bomb plots. And hello people of the future.) Also, I can't say the source of the comics. I feel bad enough already, scanning in and publishing someone else's content. They’re getting on with their lives.

No head injury, no broken ankle before the trip. Shoot, they're pretending nothign happened! I understood the connotation of 'mate' in this context. And for those of you who don't get it liek Ed- you're darn lucky! Yeah but there’s no mention of the tragic pople-caused fall. No head injury, no broken ankle before the trip.

He's picking up his mate. He's got the goggles on his head and he's in the car he was leaning against in the other frame. When I say "mate", I mean this in the British sense.
