mistakes were made... or WERE they




The haps: Don't worry - I have been to SEVERAL parties so I know what I'm talking about!!

So last week T-Rex suggested a new alphabet replacement, and I got an email from Michael L, who wrote:

I took the liberty of finding you the first 26 Garfield comics with no text in them (barring bookkeeping text like dates and signatures ofc) so you don't have to worry about recursively putting Garfield comics inside Garfield comics in order to make them parseable.

I thought this was both amazing AND PRACTICAL, and so with permission I now share this list here with you!!
