The only thing I can say is that I was out running and I saw a dead fish on the side of the road. Now I see a fair amount of road kill - birds, squirrels, that sort of thing, but a fish? We live several miles from any lakes. So I started wondering how it got there.

According to the American Dietetic Association, vegetarianism is generally associated with lower heart disease, lower blood pressure, lower diabetes rates, lower body mass, and lower cancer risks (see this article: http://www.adajournal.org/article/S0002-8223(97)00314-3/fulltext ).

The comic is up late because it is so long. I hope that is an adequate trade off. Monday's comic should be on time.
