This was a problem at Rose, for me and other students. It was an insular environment, and it was entirely too easy to never leave campus except to replenish your supplies of ramen, soda, and snack food. The city of Terre Haute didn’t make it much easier; it wasn’t the sort of place that had a lot of date options, especially for socially-inexperienced geeks. Often, the most culturally-interesting performances took place at the big auditorium on campus, and it lacked a certain romantic quality to take a date to a classical concert a stone’s throw from your dorm room and then on a walk down the mosquito-infested path to the second, lousier baseball diamond.

    OK, but you should explain a little bit the meaning of the internal organs painted on the guy’s T-shirt.

      They’re the three organs a person usually thinks with in a social engagement.

        I’m not very optimistic that the missing goatee in the 3rd panel has an explanation as deep as that.

          Oh, I (don’t) see it. Good catch.

          Gah. Yeah, the missing goatee is probably a result of a late evening in the newspaper office, like the Featureless White Void in which they stand.
