Caption: The programmable VCR which no one's ever figured out how to program. The $600, z880x 720 dpi 6-color, photo inkjet printer with the .01 paper jam. The 500-function cell phone that will do everything except let you hear the voice on the other end. The surround sound dvd/cd entrainment system that would play hours of continuous movies and music if only its little door weren't stuck shut. The $1999.99 laptop with 30-gigabyte hard drive and a dead battery. The digital camcorder with 1.6 million pixels, a 3-way PC link and a 4500 page instruction book. The universal remote programmed for one touch command of every high-tech device in the house, now lost somewhere. The PDA containing 8MB of critical personal data with the blank screen and the missing stylus. The wonderful world of electron-icks. Cathy: Ick. Ick. Ick. Ick. Ick.
A Sunday strip—woo hoo! (I had to click on the link reading “Cathy” to view it, but still.)
I can relate all too well to this one. Technology’s great when it works and I can figure it out, but otherwise …
For the heck of it, i just did a Google search for “Aaron profile GoComics” and for “Billy profile GoComics”, in the hopes of tracking down our friends. The “Billy” one didn’t result in anything, but the “Aaron” one led me to a profile of someone named Aaron—with a total of five comments. Therefore, I’m not sure if Aaron’s original profile is even still online. Strange.
I really hope we hear something from the guys soon. I miss them.
HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, nutty “Cathy” Clan.
