A Bite of the Apple

Theo: “I hear Apple is going to expand its empire even further.” Sheila: “No surprise there.”
Theo: “Maybe there is. I hear it’s in the medical field.” Sheila: “Okay, I’ll go with the rum and Coke; what’re they up to?”
Theo: “It’s going to get the PC people really upset. They’re buying up a bedpan manufacturer, and they’re calling the product the iBM.” Sheila: “ That’ll be tough for Apple fans to warm up to.”
Theo: “Especially since those things are cold anyway. More like an iCBM.” Sheila: “Enough to make me go ballistic.”

As I post this, I’ve just returned from a side-quest to Wegmans Grocery (they da best!), and the shuffle-play of my MP3 popped out Foreigner’s “Cold as Ice” (1977). On my movie-viewing list is Michael Caine in Blue Ice (1992), which borrows its name from an aviation definition, meaning “frozen sewage material that has leaked mid-flight from commercial aircraft lavatory waste systems.” I love it when synchronicity happens, because I wrote this strip over a decade ago, and it’s just now come up in the cycle.
