Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 28, 2024

In the early 2000’s, I worked for a tech firm. Our office furniture consisted of folding tables and metal chairs.

You can probably get truth social for $20!

Alex never really was a child, was she? Just an exploited prodigy.

I see she has upgraded her iMac.

Always less to going out of business sales.

On skids…

Reminds me of when Google bought the remains of Excite (google it)

is Enron still coming up? Great bargains there.

And in 2024,you can buy Roland Hedley cheap.

Nobody else offered what she did. Offer less. If any offer more than that, they get the prize. If it’s still more than anyone else has offered, he realizes he has thrown away money. Lisa Douglas was a master at it with Mr Hainey.

Physical assets? Most of those dotcoms rented furniture and office space. “Scavengers” wound up fighting over their debt. At the time, customer lists and the related personal data were probably the most valuable item.

Rolled up sleeves, Mike means business. Does anyone remember at what age precocious Alex obtained her Doonesbury world weary eyes? (as opposed to the wide-eyed innocence of children and Boopsie)
