  1. Gorgeous illustrations too, by the way. Sorry, I got fixated in my metaphor. It’s not even a metaphor it’s a simile. Slaps own face. I love all the colours and details!! Such a picturesque area. I love the different expressions on the characters faces.

  2. Unbelievable!! Is that even legal? Not turning the alarms on so everyone can hear them? What happens if someone took out the security guards first, then started a fire? Everyone would stand around like bowling pins* until they died.

    *I say “like bowling pins” because I was tempted to say “like lemons” which is sort of an over used saying, so I ought to avoid it anyway, but it suggests that lemons are useless articles. Lemons are great! They’re colourful, they’re tasty, they smell good. They are a useful ingredient. It makes little sense to make them the poster fruit of inactivity. Bowling pins, however, their main purpose, is to stand still until they are struck by a large heavy ball. They are the epitome of inactivity. So they seem like the perfect object to use as a metaphor, for standing around until your building burns down around you. That’s exactly what a bowling pin would do. I guess it’s what a lemon would do too, but don’t worry about that.

  3. Sigh. Buck up everyone!! We’ll think of something. Maybe you could hire a crowd of actors to dress up as pirates, and cause a lot of mayhem, that would be distracting.

  4. Way to go Joe! I mean, it’s not the greatest news in the world, but it’s good to know, you wouldn’t wanna NOT know that, going in. Good going.
