Precision (FWIW)
Just googled it: the movie's called Les fant?mes du chapelier directed by Claude Chabrol (1982).

Le petit tailleur
J?r?me, I am a bit curious about your screen-name, Kachoudas. Did you take it from that 1947 short story by Simenon titled Le petit tailleur et le chapelier (if I recall correctly, it's been adapted in a movie with Charles Aznavour as the tailor and Michel Serrault as the "hatmaker"), if I may ask? ...

I'm not particularly into lists, but this evening, I feel like giving it a try. So, for what it's worth, here's what I've got next to my desk right now: - Jiang' ai (Wang Fei / Faye Wong's latest double album: despite her giving up to overformatted electro-pop, I still have a particular weakness for...

Were Scott an European artist, I would have safely assumed a Hugo Pratt influence for the drawing style and the colors, but I'm really not sure if Corto Maltese ever had any success in the US. That said because it always amuses me to find out the style(s) every new Improv is pastiching (when this is...

The Missing Glass
Back to the strip: is it just me, or did Pete's glass disappear in the last panel?
Also, did you reduce the size of the panels? It looks better to me, but I was wondering if it depended on my browser.
(Those are meaningless details: I wish everything gets back to harmony as soon as possible.)

LeeshaJoy, I hadn't noticed your comment before posting mine, but you are not first to point this out. For what it's worth, here is the alternative (allegedly better) survey. I didn't try it myself, but you may want to compare the results obtained with both methods.

When I took the test last month , my score was {-8.62, -8.21}, wich puts me in the "Left Libertarian" corner. However, the method used in the Political Compass has been found questionable, and an alternative test has been proposed, as you can see on this page at Deltoid (Tim Lambert maintains a char...

If I may add something, I basically agree with your latest entry (except that I can't be "happy" to see the Convention of Geneva being violated so deliberately nor to hear people taking a death sentence for granted before the modalities of the trial have even been determined), but I'd like to mentio...

It's back up. Must have just been a tempoary glitch at Boiling Point. Jonah's pretty good about getting such things fixed quickly when they happen (which is rarely). Indeed. I just checked in, and everything is alright now. Thank you. By the way, hi, Scott! We had a brief email exchange (about the ...

Heads and Memory
Regarding the (precolombian?) "head things" and for what it's worth: at first sight, they reminded me of the huge stone heads at the end of Vol 714 pour Sidney ( Flight 714 to Sidney ), one of Herg?'s Tintin adventures. Then again, I grew up in France some decades ago, and Tintin had naturally a lar...
