Saddened by the death of the great Yogi Berra, I fell into a listless sleep.
I dreamed I spoke with Yogi, and asked about the future.
"Things will stay pretty much the same unless they change," he told me.
When I woke up, I remembered one of Yogi's most famous quotes: "it's deja vu all over again."
R.I.P. Yogi
«I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center» Kurt Vonnegut.

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

That's probably because we have no idea what 'this' is! Is there supposed to be a link there?

Indeed. Happy Birthday XKCD!
The amazing bit is that he can still come up with 3 good ideas a week after all this time...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

But does he? He averages three good ideas a week, but who's to say it's not an inspiration fest for a few days then dry for the rest of the month? We'll never know until he tells us!

Doesn't matter - to keep up that level of inspiration for ten years is seriously impressive!

Well IMHO not all the strips have the same quality, and I think that on average the quality rose at first and declined.

IMHO the 'H' stands for 'honest'. 
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde
Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

It looks like everyone has different views on the letter "H." It looks like the H actually does stand for Humble. Per the Googles. Clickety.[^]

Yup! But we all know what it really stands for is 'haughty' in practice.

He caches ideas as all artists do, in fact when he had dire family problems he had a script that published strips automatically.

It is not that hard.
Most of us do it in our regular job.
Being a cartoonist is not rocket science, it is just a different kind of job.
I'd rather be phishing!

And isn't it good that TV and radio shows can now sing, play and arrange the birthday song as many times as they can possibly find an excuse for without having to consider the cost. It'll be Happy Birthday morning, noon and night from now on. Wall-to-wall ..... hmm, I may not have thought this through as thoroughly as I might have!

Talking of which, I had the misfortune to go to a Chuck E. Cheese once. Just the once - never again. Makes KFC look like fine dining...

American baseball legend Yogi Berra, said to have inspired the cartoon character Yogi Bear, has died at the age of 90.
He was an inspiration, with such wisdom as "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
