The Problems Of The Privileged
So yes The Situation is desperate now that people are unable to, I don't know, wash their hair while they are on an airplane. Do you know how to deal with not being able to bring liquids on an airplane? Don't bring liquids on an airplane. I realize that as Americans the most minor inconvenience can be interpeted as an act of war but just leave your dang Red Bulls and toothpaste at home -- they will have these items where you are going.
Now that the heat wave has let up I can get back to hardcore projects; I am completely rewriting Case of Atlantis and I am working on an Ovecompensating collection entitled "A Dangerous Obsession." Also... Stuffed Joannas!

Stuffed Joannas? Jesus Christ you are about to become the first millionaire who will have to attribute the whole of his wealth to stuffed cats.
Jeff, I need one of those! Also some shirts.
Love,

ps...Danny may or may not be going to Lawrence soon.
Speaking as a person who carries around an emergency toothbrush in her bookbag, has indulged the overwhelming urge to wash her hair in between classes, and has been on flights between Detroit and Japan, I would like to say that this is terrible.
I need a stuffed Joanna. It's a moral imperative I have one.

Doth mine eyes deceive me? Nay, it be true! Stuffed Joannas! Oh joyous days!
"Overcompensating: The Book" sounds pretty great too. Nice!
STUFFED JOANNAS! Holy Crap! YAY!!!!
Miter Rowland, may all of your aspirations need only perseverance and commitment to come true. Your art has made my life, and the world, a better place.
No joke.
It's worse over here on the other side of the pond. You can't bring any electronic devices, OR books, OR magazines, OR basically anything other than a wallet. It's brutal.
People who love cats and people who love zombies can unite in joy at long last! You have given me my brother's birthday gift! There is nothing he could love more!
A couple of weeks ago I drew up a sweet 100%-accurate pattern in Illustrator and went out and bought some fuzzy green fabric and I had a plan, I tell you, a PLAN and I was gonna send my first-ever stuffed Joanna to you...and once again I discover I am just TOO DAMN LATE. Now whatever I make will be a bastard knockoff Joanna whose golden proportions no one will ever get to appreciate, even if she does come with her own little liquor bottle and souvenir Princess Leia costume from the comic-con. That's what I get for...well, that's just what I get.
You know, with people not being able to bring water in flights and the typical size of an in-flight drink, embolism rates will soar.
Wow... a stuffed Joanna sounds good. But I really want a "Huh" shirt like P's.
I will buy an OverCompensating book and a stuffed Joanna and the Case of Atlantis.
I wish I could listen to my music on the plane.
Yeah the ipods thing is horse crap kind of
Is it just me or does "stuffed Joanna" sound like a Dirty Sanchez or a Hot Karl?
I have dreamed of a stuffed, felt Joanna for several months now. Awesome. Awesome to the max.
LEAVE OUR LIQUIDS AT HOME?!
Freedom is dying in a plane, drinking a refreshing vanilla coke and a rubbing a leave-in conditioner in your hair.
I can only hold out hope that, should freedom be personified, she stays the fuck away from the HELL that is Vanilla Coke.
OMG stuffed Joannas??!! Do you understand that I've been dreaming of such a thing for some time now? I'd even considered making my own. or at least begging you to manufacture &/or sell them. as it turns out, i was too lazy to do either before you got to making this announcement.
thank you for being psychic and making my week!
I am flying to your Americas tomorrow (Dublin->Toronto->Seattle). I can deal with no liquids but a transatlantic flight without a book or music player is going to be really annoying. Obviously I had planned to i) murder the person next to me by paper-cutting him for seven hours, and ii) terrorise the passengers with Paris Hilton MP3s at full volume.
I guess airport officials wouldn't find a "Hugs Not Jihads" t-shirt amusing?
I rode on an airplane yesterday, I got there 3 hours early so I wouldn't have any problems, turns out the lines were moving fuck all quick because everyone was checking bags. Apparrently, at first, people didn't know, and were bringing all their liquids with them through the lines. Since these liquids could be explosives that blow up when mixed together, the security guards were taking them away, AND DUMPING THEM ALL INTO THE SAME BIN, RIGHT NEXT TO THE SECURITY LINE, WHICH HAS MORE PEOPLE THAN THE DAMN AIRCRAFT. Just goes to show, they don't really care if we get blowed up, long as the plane isn't damaged. I need more snakes on a plane stickers, I should have taken some when you offered them at mocca.
Make a d. bag shirt, too!!
I prophesized those stuffed Joannas way back on the strip where Joanna was seen at an angle and appeared to have an illusion of depth!
I CALLED IT MAN I DID
"Since these liquids could be explosives that blow up when mixed together, the security guards were taking them away, AND DUMPING THEM ALL INTO THE SAME BIN, RIGHT NEXT TO THE SECURITY LINE, WHICH HAS MORE PEOPLE THAN THE DAMN AIRCRAFT."
I noticed that too, I think they were more concerned with the containers than what was in them.
What I want to know is why the Brits banned _newspapers_. It's neither a liquid or a container, unless you're that magician guy who pours milk in one and makes it vanish, I dunno, I guess magicians are terrarreristsars too
MY PANTS BECOME TIGHT UPON SEEING THE PHRASE STUFFED JOANNAS.
i think that, in the future, people will look at Snakes on a Plane, and think "oh my god, the airport securty was that lax back then?" and i will totally go along with it.
"dude you could so bring snakes on to a plane. all you gotta do is say they're your 'comfort animal'. those idiots let anything slide."
g - the authorities don't want anyone to read anything in case they get smart to what this "war on terror" is really about.
Spices.
You heard it here first.
boy, your seamstress better get crackin' on those stuffed joannas, huh? good thing her boyfriend will be out of town all week so she will have no distractions.
hee hee.
I feel like a bad person for signing up to something just so I can post political views on the comments page of a funny comic... because it makes me a bad person, but I am doin it anyway =)
terrible schools: ones where women are taught their bodies, emotions, hair are evil things that must be covered up lest they force a man to molest her
act of war: not forcing us to not bring liquids onto a plane, but the plan to blow up 3000 people that precipitated the aforementioned decision
But hey, ridicule is a great, if not too successful, way of arguing against something you disagree with =)
Now I am gonna go out into the real world, and no one shall be the wiser that I am the sorta person that would post this! MUAHAHA1~1!`1
Spices... or... THE SPICE?
Ah, a stuffed Joanna it will go great next to my custon stuffed Jeff Rowla....I mean, nothing. I haven't made little stuffed figures of you, baby, and Weedmaster. That would be absurd.
I don't get the reasoning for no music players on an airplane. That's just dumb. Oh, maybe it's a remote for a bomb! Seriously though, if someone wanted to badly enough they could sneak into the airport and place a bomb on the outside of a plane or something. Wouldn't be too hard. Unless of Course National guard is there.
Are you allowed salt and pepper on the plane? You could blow the pepper in the pilots eyes and totally fuck everything up. Sorry for ruining that for peopel who like to use ltos of pepper.
In five years, we will all be flying nude with sore rectums.

I can understand the not bringing liquids on a plane...as long as it isnt in effect for the next 5 years...
But what I dont understand is why they have to tape off water fountains and restrict the selling of liquids from the vendors in the airport.
Also, the terrarits didnt even have tickets or passports yet, it was supposed to go down a long time from now...
Ooohhh man, freedom haters? That's classic. I'm reminded of a David Cross stand-up album called "It's Not Funny!", he goes off in length about George Bush and the freedom haters.
I've frequently done 14 and 18 hour plane flights. Not being able to take a bottle of water on the plane will suck. Waiting for a flight attendant to show up with a spillable glass is not the same.
I'm glad I can at least fly with a book or magazine. United Airlines' limited movie choices are awful for the overseas flights. Singapore Air is at least 2.45 times better than UA
For those of us who take liquid medication this is actually a scary time. Don't want to check it on the plane because what if they lose my bag! I'll be screwed until they find the bag. And declaring to security that I have bottles of liquid methadone sure sounds like it won't cause any hassles...
