FellowRabbit goes to America

This May we are going to USA, and we are having a crazy idea of making some citizen interviews with folks in states, so we, by all means, europeans in mind can learn what people there have in mind.

We have defined 2 main areas of interest:
1. Everyday life - what are the most exciting things in life?, what bothers the most?: e.g. job, health insurance, criminal, guns, supermarkets, american cars, tv, movies, gadgets etc

2. Internal politics - republican vs democrats, rich vs poor, politician vs people, obama, palin, jon stewart vs glenn beck etc

3. USA and the world - how people in us see the world, how the world sees usa, iraq, afganistan, al-qaeda, us military, wikileaks, cablegate, export of democracy etc

We will try to make several interviews including with people in silicon valley, utah, nevada, boston, new york and crazy folks we meet in yellowstone national park.

If you have any ideas for questions or people we should interview (you will have to set up the interview) leave a comment here.

Strip of the day, 23.02.2011, True religion

"Religion is the opium of the people" Karl Marx

According to the history of mankind, religion is nothing else than a proto-state built around an idea of mighty and omnipotent god. And in our time even the most progressive religions are more an instrument of control and power rather education and unity, even if the religion is based around science and knowledge:

True religion:

1.

K: Free people, come and join us for the reading of the wikipedia in the temple of mighty photon

2.

A: Come to praise the god photon and the holy spirit of science & knowledge

3.

A: I count to 1, and if you #@*=ers do not go to our mess, I start to #@*=ing shoot

4. 

A: I love to see so many people to praise science and knowledge

K: Just like a real religion

Strip of the day, 22.02.2011, Politics

It's all about politics:
1. democracy is better than dictatorship
2. elections are always good (don't let anyone fool you with their special way)

But even elections let sometimes dirty foam float on top of the society:

PS: We are with people of Libya, actually we think civilized world (meaning at least europe and us) should intervene - maybe even a military strike against Gaddafi, and finish the bastard rather sooner then later.

PS2: We are big fans of direct democracy and we think there will be a golden age of the civilization when it will come back to the roots and turn to direct democracy. And maybe web 3.0 will help up do that.

Strip of the day, 20.02.2011, ADD treatment

For those who are struggling with ADD (attention deficit disorder), simply put you, who surfs the internet while at work :), do not give up, if you have a high IQ chances are you are a very creative person.

Robber rabbits are struggling with ADD people too, as it seems most of the people around them are in for an ADD treatment, trying to concentrate on one thing at a time and not noticing anything around. This had to be stopped at all cost.

While helping other creatures to get rid of their ADD, Robbers have built the very first temple of Photon:

Strip of the day, 14.02.2011, Valentine's day quiz - doggy style

Although many people suggest that Valentine's day is just a load of marketing crap, and robber rabbits are quite sinister about it too (at least by the nature of their job) it is nevertheless a good day to ask yourself and your loved ones the fundamental question of love:

Strip of the day, 13.02.2011, Awkward costume party

It is great to meet people outside of your domain and try to experiment, but sometimes there is nothing better then just to have a warm glass of Tru Blood and a quite meaningful conversation with "people" who "get" you:

Strip of the day, 12.02.2011, Dreaming of a better life

Sometimes we are pinned down by the routine, we have to go to work because we have a family to support, we have to work for a bank rather building super cars or that laser gun for the army because it is comfy and safe. But sometimes we have dreams what our life could be if we had the guts to pull it off.

The robber family certainly have the guts to pull anything (it seems), but do they have a strength to make their dreams come true:

ps: Guys we need your love, if you like our comics do not hesitate to spread the word about it. You can like our official facebook page or follow us on twitter

Badly going armed robbery is just one step away from a kidnapping, where is kidnapping there is also a place for stockholm syndrome, how would the robber rabbit family handle this:

Strip of the day, 09.02.2011, the last ip

Internet faces a huge problem, it is running out of ipv4 addresses, at the beginning of this week the last free RIR section had been allocated.

Soon people will start getting problems, it would be more difficult to reconnect to your provider with a dsl modem or get connected to the mobile internet as overcrowded provider will run out of ip pools they are using now. Chaos, revolution, people getting on the street, work shortages, anything can happen at that point.

This is how a rabbit robber family could handle the last ip situation:

Strip of the day, 08.02.2011, Cave job
