texodore, this one’s for you… With the strangely coincidental storylines in this week’s doonesbury and comic_getfuzzy, there’s been a lot of speculation that Trudeau and Conley might be setting up a crossover. Though Doonesbury’s B.D. is most probably named for Brian Dowling, a Yale quarterback from Trudeau’s college days, it is intriguing to consider the possibility that the B is for Bill, and short for… William.

Just a coincidence I’m sure. But you forgot the most amazing thing - to the best of my knowledge, this is the first time in the long history of Doonesbury that we’ve seen B.D. without his helmet on. Compared to that losing his leg is almost trivial.
No, I didn’t forget it; I thought by now (given the huge amount of discussion that has been taking place) that it went without saying.
