| EGS Story for Sunday, January 27, 2002 - Copyright 2002-08 Dan Shive | Sign: Moperville North
/ Elliot: Is it just me, or does the school look like it was made by tracing an image of Dan's old school in order to compensate for his inability to draw perspective well?

| So... the Goo ISN'T Setting Them on Fire??? | Tedd: The Goo is only able to maintain its current form due to a delicate balance of liquids and solids. It is absorbent, so if we drench it with water the balance should be undone and all we'll have to do is clean up a puddle! Of course, not every area of the school has sprinklers so we should wait... http://egscomics.com/d/20020207.html |
| I Wonder how Long Ago that was... | Tedd: Now Elliot, now! Use fire from the lighter to activate the sprinkler system!!! / Elliot: It's not working! Something's wrong with the sprinklers!!!
