Yes, We're Back - STILL

This strip is to honor (more or less) Shabbat Shirah:

From Judaism 101:

Shabbat Shirah
Unlike the other special Shabbatot, Shabbat Shirah does not have an additional reading, but rather is dictated by the presence of a standard reading. Shabbat Shirah is the Shabbat when we read Parshat Beshalach (Exodus 13:17-17:16), which is the Torah portion that includes the Song at the Sea.

Tradition teaches that there are only ten true Songs (Shirot, the plural of Shirah) in the history of the world. These true Songs are not mere melodies; they are expressions of the harmony of creation and mark monumental transitions in history. Another of these Songs appears on the haftarah portion for the week (Judges 4:4-5:31): the Song of Deborah. The Song of Songs is, of course, one of the Ten Songs. Interestingly, the Tenth Song has not yet been sung: it is the Song of the coming of the Mashiach, which will be sung at the End of Days (see Isaiah 26:1).

Daddies Aren't Supposed To Die - Update

For those who are wondering what happened to the Daddies Aren't Supposed To Die series; there was some additional research that we had to do to make sure that the strip was accurate. It took a little more time to get the information than we though . We now have the facts and are ready to get back to the drawing board.
