Hannelore's not aiming high enough. If she'd snap properly, there wouldn't be anyone left to write her epitaph.

As for the comic; who doesn't love pancakes? And Marten's just having a "coulda been" moment, but it does open up thoughts in most of us. What if we had hooked up with that hot guy/girl at the concert, or gotten the nerve to send in the demo tape to some record producer?

As for other crap; Whoa, new site design! I like the fonts and the layout, as it looks a bit cleaner and organized, but why the blue and orange? I just am not one for color combos like that.

I really like the new design. Its different, and differnet is almost always good.

As for the comic, who knows maybe seeing Hanner's predicament will inspire Marten to succeed with his dreams and in the next comic, he'll be banging groupies left and right!

Hey, I can dream right?...Right?...Anyone?

For some reason this comic made me think about what a Marten-Hanners relationship would be like. Anyone else think they'd make a cute couple?

Poor Hannelore, but a great line. And Marten's expression.But isn't she the scion of a mad scientist and a tycoon? You'd think that make quite a start in life.

Not in the next comic, it'll take him a while a build a following. So in the comic's timescale, about 2015.

It is true that Marten probably won't ever ascend to 'indie god' status, but it's also true that he's never made a serious effort to do so.  A lot of people who complain their life didn't turn out the way they planned didn't really try.

It is still possible that he could.  Nick Cave has got to be like 60.  Rodney Dangerfield didn't start comedy till he was in his 40s.  And Marten, a guy in his 20s, is saying it's 'too late'?  That sounds to me like an excuse for failure.

All I can think when reading this strip of is my possible epitaph: "Grade THIS, you motherless bastard!" Or something to that effect. In other words, I hope to be, ah, missed.

I remember reading one of ERB's books a few years back, in which one character remarks, "If a man doesn't make his mark by the time he's thirty, he never will." I was depressed for weeks afterwards.

Then I remembered that most people had a lower life expectancy at the turn of the 19th century. Cheered me right up.

But Marten isn't even thirty, is he?

Awww poor Hanners is right. But then again my epitaph would probably read, "She was very bright but didn't apply herself." ;)

That's what all the teachers said...pretty accurate.

And if there's a bright side to all of this, it's that Sven should be able to make bank. He's now in the perfect frame of reference to write mega-selling country music.

Well, Glad to see Sven do something that he should have done a long time ago with other women. From personal experience, making an instant decision, or just saying something and walking away forcing yourself not to think about what you are saying, is the easiest way to tell someone something very difficult. (you get the knack for it after awhile).
