For a complete story, read Aaron and Anj 's auditions.

I am a Southern belle at heart.

This conversation happened almost verbatim IRL while planning these comics. We were in *Aaron-Smiley 's car and everything.

I want to make a joke out of the fact that we don't know anything about Iowa. I appreciate the fun facts though

I wouldn't be able to get you anywhere in that city, but at least I'd know the climate well. XD;

I'm not sure why, but I really like Aaron's expression in the second panel.

And I've heard Iowa called the "American Heartland" before, but if that's the heart of America, than I'm afraid. Also, a very nice simile you used there.

Res-Gestae In reply to Synchros [2011-04-27 20:05:44 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah?

I googled Iowa and I believe you're right about the Heartland thing. It's really more of the Spleenland though.

Between all the jokes and fun that we've been poking at Iowa, I bet someone who is actually from there will come and give us all the what-for. It's gotta come full cycle somehow.

People are only normal until you get to know them.

ToaNovu In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-05 02:39:59 +0000 UTC]

That's true for the most part. There also people that seem pretty weird at first that turn out to be pretty normal after all.

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-04-27 20:17:00 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha, that's kinda sad. Poor Iowa! One of the less...popular states, I suppose.

I'm trying to figure out how I would get there. Most likely train or car, but I'm not sure which would be easier/cheaper. Or if there even is a train nearby that I could take to Iowa...should be...but...Ah dunno.

Res-Gestae In reply to Crosse-Tales [2011-05-12 02:04:22 +0000 UTC]

No one else has mentioned a train before. That could be fun!

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-12 02:27:45 +0000 UTC]

I may or may not be able. I'm not good with maps or anything, I have no clue where a train station in Iowa is, near where I need to be, or where I would have to go to take that particular train.

This is why I don't travel, I would get hopelessly lost.

Res-Gestae In reply to Crosse-Tales [2011-05-12 03:21:29 +0000 UTC]

I used Mapquest to see what route it suggested from LA to Cedar Rapids. It got me a rough idea, which was nice.

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-12 03:35:10 +0000 UTC]

I can't use Mapquest. Computer's too slow.

I'm trying just...searching google. Maybe I can find a site that shows the routes.

Really? Huh. Well, I originally found my location through google searches. I bet you can find something too.

I may just go with the idea my Uncle gave me. I'd probably prefer riding in the back of a pick-up truck anyhow. >>

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-12 04:25:23 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, he was talking about going to Canada around of the end of this year, or early next year. He told me to put in the comic that I was going with him since he mentioned having to apparently go through Iowa.

"Don't know if we'll go through that particular part though." Oh well, details, who needs 'em?

That sounds fun! Are you close to your Uncle?

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-12 04:33:39 +0000 UTC]

Yup. Most of my family that lives near is close. Ish. If they go on a trip they tend to drag one of us, or all of us, along. If my cousin went, she would probably drag me along.

By force.

Even if I wasn't willing. 'Cause she's stronger than me.

Most everyone is.

My family is like that, actually. It's fun, lol.

Crosse-Tales In reply to Res-Gestae [2011-05-12 05:05:28 +0000 UTC]

If I refused to go she would drag me out by my ankles.

It would be funny, after a while it usually is, but I get car sick. Motion sick, really...but since it only ever happens in vehicles I'll stick to calling it car sickness. Small spaces don't help anyway...

I already know the dialog for it. We would spend the entire time arguing. xD
