The Sunday Strip for September is now seconds away from your beady, bloodshot eyes. Lots of carnage this episode. October's is almost ready; I should have it to you in the next few days. Certainly by the end of the month, at any rate. Wouldn't that be a hoot?

You saw the bottle? You recognized the bottle?

And technically, it's "little Jack", not "baby Jack".

I guess it's just a comment on how much money J&P spend at the Pub.

I'm impressed that Jon thought so far ahead in giving Din-tah a spiked collar. No multiple decapitations for this metachicken!

I like the sense that a powerful man with a pony tail is lurking somewhere in the background of the site maintenance, ready to subdue criminals with a chair.

I have been assuming up until now that the collar is what holds his head in place. But maybe you're right that this particular incarnation hasn't had that sort of trouble.

Bah! And now I have that old nursery rhyme stuck in my head: "As I was going out one day, my head fell off and rolled away. And when I saw that it was gone, I picked it up and put it on." Confounded chickens.

Because "that's the way, uh huh, uh huh, I like it, uh huh, uh huh".

Or it could just be a coincidence. You be the judge. Just not the executioner, please.

In what strange nursery is such a thing rhymed? I actually went to nursery school in Indiana (Richmond, near the Ohio border), and that one's new to me...

It can be found in various Mother Goose collections, the best of which is the big one by Arnold Lobel [1]. I wasn't raised on it either. I learned it after my son got the book as a Christmas present. Nor was I raised in Indiana; my nursery rhyme years were in Santa Barbara/Pacifica/Hayward.
