SJP would take him down easy, after all those years of practice with stiletto heels.

Put name of “celebrity/athelete” here…..who? Here are a few 20 year-olds worth knowing about: Justin Allen 23, Brett Linley 29, Matt Weikert 29, Justus Bartett 27, Dave Santos 21,Chase Stanley 21, Jesse Reed 26, Matthew King 23, Christopher Goeke 23,& Sheldon Tate 27..These 20-somethings gave their lives for… you this month. And 6 more this past week. They and their families are much more important than all this celebrity news garbage.

RAGBRAI = Register Annual Great Bicycle Race Around Iowa
Wiley creator over 14 years ago
I believe that’s ACROSS Iowa. It begins at the Missouri river and ends at the Mississippi river.

I also seem to recall an accusation through the medium of Southpark that Family Guy used something similar to write episodes ;)

Some would say PMSNBC or Communist News Network story selection process. Far be it from me to mention it, though.

Whatever.

Glad they follow through and get the facts right.

Wiley, this is perfect…. and all the networks are guilty. Faux picked it up first, but the others followed in sheep-like fashion with the administration tagging along. Disgusting!
halfabug over 14 years ago
naw the administration gives it to msnbc.

I don’t follow celebrity gossip, but even I know that Heath is dead. Is this comic a repeat from before he died, or it doesn’t matter & it could as easily say Elvis on one of those name cards?
William Sutton Premium Member over 14 years ago
I suppose there could be a biker bar in Des Moines. In the ‘80’s there was a biker bar in Omaha near Rosenblat Stadium and the Omaho Zoo.

How many miles must a man bike down, before he can knife fight SJP?
The answer my friend is goin’ RAGBRAI’n’ the answer is goin’ RAGBRAI’n’….

False news! I am sure Danae likes to play the game with the journalism to give out false information.
mjlew01 over 14 years ago
Love the randomness of Dylan and Sara JP in a knife fight. In Des Moines.
I guarantee that Wiley used this method to get this story.
natureboyfig4 Premium Member over 14 years ago
I always thought the author was a liberal, albeit a talented one. Now Wiley doesn’t like their own “news” networks? Cool!

You would be wrong in that assumption.
aerwalt over 14 years ago
i do believe that Wiley has a secret way of doing his strip.
It’s called a “brain”.
Nelly55 over 14 years ago
gee aerwalt, that was exactly what I was thinking!

Not quite sure about that dead rabbit story minky moo… Shades of MIchael Moore… (aren’t rabbits the cute rodent?)
She breaks just like a little girl… A well-armed little foil… with like a knife and a little curl… to rock my post feminist little world…

Which is why we all read the paper, even if it is the computer version……
Great one Wiley, I always wondered where those headlines came from and now I know.
MisngNOLA over 14 years ago
“24 - 7 coverage of this story begins…now” That sounds like the CNN blurb to me.
