Hubris- Thinking? There’s no thinking in Skateboating!
Happy 11-11-11! I bought a science-based book on calendrics back when the whole Y2K thing caught the public imagination. (Stephen Jay Gould’s ‘Questioning The Millennium‘) And now with people being silly about the Rapture, the end of the world. and the Mayan calendar, I’m surprised that no one thought that something nasty would be happening today, what with the date being all ones (at least, the way it’s generally written… in this culture… at the moment.) Of course, that leads to lots of issues about whether the calendar we’ve chosen for ourselves has numbers on it that mean anything to the stars and planets of the rest of the universe, and whether Australia is gonna catch the &%$# before we do, ’cause it’s tomorrow there already, isn’t it?
I love the look on Hubris’ face in the first panel. I can’t tell if he’s punch drunk or contented. Thinking ahead about consequences is for grownups.
OOPSIE! I should have said this last week. Congratulations on one year of hubriscomics.com ( Big round of applause, Standing Ovation )
THANKS! It’s been a year and a week, give or take a day. I hadn’t actually gone back to check the first day until now. I thought it was late November last year. Turns out it was the 5th. So! Happy Birthday to Hubris!
I can see the 5th panel … it has girlfriend saying something Miss Cornelia (from Anne of Green Gables, book 4 “Anne’s House of Dreams”) saying “Ain’t that just like a man?” *LOL*
