Just Put a Sock Over Them

Garry Trudeau is taking a several-month break from Doonesbury right now, so some papers are including reruns of old strips. For years, my favorite topic in the strip has been Alex Doonesbury, and particularly in the last year or so, since she has entered MIT.

Today they reran a strip that I loved at the time, but forgot to clip for the filing cabinet. It was my second chance -- so here it is!

First two panels of Doonesbury cartoon
Middle two panels of Doonesbury cartoon
Final two panels of Doonesbury cartoon
(Hope you can read all of that.)

I find this strip especially appealing today because I'm traveling, and when you're staying in a hotel room, it's hard to get away from all of the darned blinking "ready" lights. I've resorted to putting the computer in the bathroom to avoid its slowly pulsing illumination.
