Rats. I was looking forward to an illustration of the Boston molasses disaster, though the Molasses Gang is interesting too. —Angr 08:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Double rats! I was looking forward to linking to Boston molasses disaster on this page, but someone beat me to it! :-) Carcharoth 16:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
Candied rats!! Like you, I found the Boston molasses disaster article to be interesting - but there was just too much molasses-related goodness for a single cartoon. (Also, I'm not sure how I would have presented the death toll information in a lighthearted manner ...). Thanks for the notes. --Greg Williams 22:21, 27 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
Candied rats? LOL! In case you ever find a way to present deaths in a light-hearted manner, there is the Baldock Beer Disaster in a similar vein. Note the mention of a dog and "two further deaths from alcohol-related conditions". Strange. Carcharoth 00:48, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
That comic kind of makes me hungry, kinda.... Just H 01:37, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
You could just conveniently ignore the deaths...it might have been worth it for the comic effect. I also like the idea of the gingerbread-men, and right in time for the holidays, too!--HereToHelp 01:39, 1 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey, there's no way that handcuffs would work on a gingerbread man!  :-) KarlBunker 21:00, 2 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Shhhhhhh, don't tell him. I don't think he's figured that out. --Greg Williams 13:32, 4 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
