| #10 I've been to Wausau no less than a dozen times. From my experience, there can't be enough Hmoob speaking people there to justify The Herald writing articles in it. If that's what it in fact is. |

| #7 So its some kind of letter substitution code. Obviously, 'hais' is the word 'said'. In order to read it, you would have to rewrite it with all the letter substitutions, then what are the chances that it would be worth reading ? rijjx ? |

| #5 I think it's supposed to be Hmong. Wausau, Wisconsin has quite a large population of these folks. |

| #4 This is from Al Capp, right, along with other characters that appear in the RB graphic stash? Wikipedia is only a click away, but I've already spent too much time there lately, refreshing my Twilight Zone memory... I do have a rather serious history of collecting US comics, but I'm a bit holey in my knowledge of older comics or strips. I'm a big fan of Will Eisner's Spirit, of Alley Opp, or various strips that were translated in french kiddies mags like the one with the two awful brats on that tropical island (Pim, pam et poum in french, ak the krathenhjammer kids or something in english), the one with the vikings, Flash Gordon by Alex Raymond, Mandrake,... but that's about all. |
