#770 – Adrift
Back in the days before cell phones were common my car broke down on a lonely stretch of highway in Michigan. It was very late at night. I sat there for 20 minutes and no other cars passed me. I decided to write a note as to the direction I was walking so that the search parties would have a good chance of finding my unconscious body. Just as I finished writing the note a tow truck stopped to help me. I always felt lucky that the first person to stop was someone that could genuinely help.

Is everyone sleeping in on the holiday??
Looks like Biff needs a Hitchhickers guide to the galaxy

xD
Hopefully, Biff will have the same luck as you.
Then again, Hes always survived strange things, Why not no air? I’m sure the man could handle it .-.

Wow, only two replies…
Return of the Rocket! Again! It’s trademark!

Great update to celebrate Towel Day!

I’m going to preemptively guess ‘book references’
May 25th, 2009 at 11:46 am
Biffs rocket is back in action!

I’m going to go ahead and assume jenny is right with “book references week”, but I would dearly love an entire Hitchhiker’s Guide week. Towels, restaurants, time travel, impossible odds, and overall just a generally good romp.

If I were to make an emergency distress signal, it would be a giant neon sign. Or, if it had to be a hand, a pink one. A gray hand doesn’t scream “EMERGENCY” to me.

much less one that appears to be giving the thumbs up all ok hand sign thing.
May 25th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Don’t panic.
May 25th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
Just don’t get picked up by Vogons.

Lawl, Hitchhiker`s Guide to the Galaxy week!
And today is Towel Day!

book-titles-made-literal Week
May 25th, 2009 at 2:04 pm
Happy Towel Day

I can’t be certain what week it is just by one comic, but book titles week would be awesome.
May 25th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I’m gonna guess Biff comics without Biff actuallly appearing.
May 25th, 2009 at 5:34 pm
Since everyone seams to be guessing themes and I do that every monday anyways:
- Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy week
- Hitchhiking week
- Space Week
- Book week
- Book titles week
- Biff off panel week
- Lost week
- Powerless week (how does he inflate the thumb without power)
- Inflatable week
- Hand gestures week
- Biff’s rocket week
- Movies week
- Movie tittles week (hitchhikers guide to the galaxy was made into a movie)
That I believe is enough guesses!

Getting lost is not that hard for me…I have trouble finding people in my own house!
May 25th, 2009 at 6:05 pm
I have two more guesses that I can’t believed i missed!
- Distress week
- Emergency week

The funny thing is that in outer space, with no orientation that could very well be a thumbs down lol….
May 25th, 2009 at 9:00 pm
Needs a more pronounced curve to be a true Hitchhiker’s Thumb (mine curves at 90 degrees…it’s almost freakish)
HitchHiker’s Guide to the Galaxy FTW!
May 25th, 2009 at 10:06 pm
Never buy a rocket with an inflatable distress call
May 26th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
Why not? My rocket has a distress call just like that. Wait that is my distress call! Biff stole my rocket!!!
May 29th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
On Friday, I realized I had lost a day somewhere.
…Found it.
October 25th, 2009 at 10:02 pm
First thing I thought?
THUMB!
That is all.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who saw hitchhikers in this picture.
