Circumference is 2 Pi r

It begs the question: whose wagon is it? (And what is all she wants for Christmas?)

The song came to me quite a while ago, along with the critic pun, which was originally supposed to be the after text.

I don't remember when "Aint" came to mind, but I knew I couldn't put that in the title. So I went with the formula. Oddly, there weren't too many that fit well into this song.

In any case, I'm sure a Western math musical would make many want to travel Eastward.

Update: I found my notes from a while ago. My original title was "Paint Your Numbers", but I'd forgotten that. Of course, that means I can use that for a different gag.

This is all for the Birdies! Bye-bye!!

Rejected opening salutations included, "What's the skinny, little Minnie?" and "What's going down, Miss Downtown?"

This has been bouncing around my head for a couple of weeks. The main thing preventing it from being done was figuring that I wasn't going to get it done.

(Today's comic is broken down into parts in case the large one is too big to read.)

A Funny Thing Happened ...

(Click on the cartoon to see the full image.)
(C)Copyright 2012, C. Burke. All rights reserved. A funny thing happened on the way to my class blog ... The students weren't using it, so I made some bonus comics. I doodled and diddled, and threw in some old jokes. Next thing I know I have recurring characters, both human and numerical, all developing personalities, in my own geeky version of "Sesame Street" where such could exist side-by-side. (Except that they're never actually existed side-by-side, I think.) This was definitely the most ambition thing I've done to date -- and those last two words scare the hell out of me. There were other things that I left out of this. Not just illustrations to go with the text, but other text that didn't fit. And I wanted as many characters as I could squeeze in, but some were just faces and the stick figures wouldn't blend in well. That's enough for today. I need a break. It's hot. -- Chris Burke
