I suspect Evelyn will be filing a complaint with Amazon.

Probably not a good idea to give Evelyn more inspiration for mayhem.

Love Michelle's guitar! Where did you find one that would work fairly well in scale with Shinkis?
And Evelyn, don't ever change...

Thanks, I think Michelle looks good with the guitar. She seems the "artsy" type. I got it from Amazon (where else?). It's listed as
"1:12 Guitar Wooden Miniature Musical Instrument Music DollHouse Figure Best Gift by Miniature." Shinkis seem to work relatively well with 1:12 scale items, although some 1:12 scale pieces are a bit large.
Evelyn is a lot of fun as always.

Ha, I noticed the reflection of the camera too, but not until I downloaded the photos. D'oh!
I wonder what the aftermath of a meeting of Strarfs would look like. Probably like the Rolling Stones' hotel after a concert.

Kidding around with Evelyn.
I actually just finished reading the Kindle version of "Alas, Babylon" and it was nothing short of bizarre. Every instance of the word "worry" in the book is replaced by " worn' ", and there are a bunch of other words that are definitely not part of the English language. Does anybody even proofread these things?

So they replace the word "worry" with "worn"?
Yeah... somebody really needs to do some serious proofreading there... that's the sort of thing that would bug the crap out of me, given the fact that I can be a bit of a spelling/grammar freak (it stems from years of studying creative writing).

It affects me the same way. It wouldn't be so bad if the book was free, but a lot of Kindle books have terrible proofreading AND you have to pay for them.

Belinda is a bit naive, which for me is part of her charm.
Evelyn's vendetta against the mailman seems to have developed as the strips progressed. She seems determined to turn him into an "archaeological find" whether he's ready or not.
