A friend in the UK told me his country never got Bloom County. I said I couldn't think of a reason why they wouldn't have gotten it, other than the endless jabs at the Royal Family, which were dang funny.

"I've got an idea! Why don't we invite all of me old friends over for a cocktail party?"
"Nooow, Diana deeear, you know we 'ave to associate with those of our OWN."
"Like who?"
"Well, there's King 'Big Papa' Ooman of Eastern Ugundia."
"King Ooman?"
"Yeah."
"Doesn't he eat people?"
"WELL NOT AT A BLEEDIN' COCKTAIL PARTY!!"

I'm sure Berke could get a lot of gags out of this Camilla thing now, but he doesn't do these anymore. Bloody pity.
