myriam [email] said at 2:54 PM 03-30-2005: I liked that one a lot--possibly my favorite--I interpreted it as, haha, the fish not only gets speared through the head, but he doesn't even get the wormy... it's like total redneck "gotcha!"
cecil [email] said at 7:02 PM 03-30-2005: yeah, orphan inch is better now. I figured out those were bushes but I don't think it matters that I didn't get she had the baby in them.
I think you could make a good abortion joke that had a coathanger image in there somewhere... maybe not this one though.
sex, baby, priest, sex, sex is a good narrative way to end it.

julie [email] said at 1:01 PM 03-30-2005: I agree that it's confusing-- I had to look at it a few times, but ultimately came to Woody's incest-free conclusion. I think it's the presence of the little kid that makes it tricky to read at first glance.
myriam [email] said at 6:45 PM 03-30-2005: the orphanage one is WAY better without the dad. With the dad i couldn't figure out why the car was leaving...
also, totally don't get that the baby is borned in the bushes. but it's funny anyway!

"Fold this strip into a feeding tube for your conscience" is my favorite--I like it best when the Fold This is a tangential joke about the kind of humor in the particular strip, rather than an extension of the basic joke. When it's, well, you know, meta.
