30 August 2006 - Canada

[Zorro]

That REALLY looks like a bottle of whisky.   

[xHaZxMaTx]

Really?  Looks like a maple leaf to me.

[Akisohida]

Maple whisky! Everything from Canada is maple! Maple syrup, maple whisky, maple butter, maple corn, maple maple... They even have Maple Mows!

[bill]

Feh, whiskey is whiskey.

[topher chee]

i thought it was perfume at first haha

[King Of Hearts]

So... do we have to throw it in Mount Doom?

[xHaZxMaTx]

That depends... does maple syrup make you invisible?

[GabrielsThoughts]

A shame she won't be able to enjoy "Jack Daniels Mustard"... it's mmmm good, and I'm fairly certain they don't have good quality Jones Soda, or Virgin Cola there either. (hurray for Nevada where all the copper mining companies belong to cannadians... and all the lithium mines belong to americans.)

[Supercheese]

Based on the size ratio, she should have enough maple syrup to last her exactly 23,748 pancakes/waffles/french toast...es.

SHHHH! What do you think she used to influence the border guard?

[Thrawn]

I got a bottle of syrup that looks just like that from a friend in Canada. I haven't used it yet though...

[topher chee]

i still say its perfume

[James StarRunner]

Actually, I've seen that same style bottle. It is maple syrup.

[Reese Tora]

We've had one of those bottles of syrup sitting on our kitchen table for the longest time.  I don't recall what happened to it. (remodling)

[Zedd]

Ooooh looks so tastey...

[lucas marcone]

america feels empty now..... now there is nothing stopping me from moveing to europe! .....except that my collage of choice happens to lay in the state i live in already...

[Gabi]

I wonder where the picture came from.

But that was really lazy... Reusing old strip titles?

[Light Wolf]

On a side note. Is it just me, or did someone else notice that the comic looks more, dodged, a lot lighted than usual, or maybe it's just my eyes playing with me...

[Rowne]

This latest comic really made me giggle, this is because Amber has a very good grasp on how "And now for something completely different." should be used.  It should involve something gigantic at least.  A gigantic bottle of maple-leaf alcohol/syrup just about does it.

Now I'm just waiting for one of the characters to 'go Canadian' to freak out the rest of Lost Lake.  Mer would be the perfect candidate since he's been away for a while.

What did they DO to you ... and what's with the omnipresent leaf motif?

Oi, don't diss the leaf, eh?  The leaf is all.

[Lucheek]

That's one cool sryup container. I'm glad Amber made it okay. ;

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Light Wolf: the fonts are slightly different, since Amber has been using her brothers desktop, and is missing many of her personal fonts.

Any other changes are caused by the above effects, and will probably be slightly different again once she gets her machine up and working. And aren't a bad thing, since change is omnipresent anyway. :-)

There is an important difference. The old one has a "!" while the new one has ".".

Seconded!

actually, this comic was done on the new computer.  And like all new computers, it is different from the old computer that I spent 3 years working on.  Not incredibly different, but enough so that I have to make adjustements and reset a few things.

For instance, the new monitor is not only an LCD(which is going to take some getting used to in the colour department), it is also running at 1280x800 resolution as its a bit wider than it is tall.   So I'm having to deal with new resolutions and a slight colour shift...the end result will most likely be that(like I warned before) there will be a slight adjustment as I work towards getting a new pattern.

[Zedd]

I know you and me dont see eye to eye very well Amber but I just wish ya luck this new computer dont piss ya outs liek the last one..

Oh, was it? Neat. Looking closely (ie, nitpicking detail level :-) I see the fonts changed from 670 to 671 (when you started on yoru brothers machine) and then back again, in the latest one.

So. Looks like things are lookign up :-)

(woot! I got an Amber response, woohoo! *giggles like a schoolgirl* :-)

[topher chee]

mmm.....maple syrup

[xHaZxMaTx]

To be perfectly honest, I like the 'new' style.

[Zedd]

    New style perfect

I have a question for you. Are you some kind of robot? And if so, what kind of robot? Cause if you had laser eye beams, that'd be really awesome.

*Yes, that's very similar to something Strong Bad said. He is my teacher in the ways of the good and the awesome*
