"Good King Winceslas" and "Yankee Doodle" don't have the same tune. If you write them out as poems, without a melody, they have the same meter and structure, but the tunes are not very similar. |

Although, I do think the songs are closer than he gives credit for. Blue man Group does a take on this using the Bumblebee tuna song and "Another Saturday Night."
I have only recently found Wondermark, and I think it is quite brilliant. I will be buying the books. |

When I was in sixth grade, my school choir did a medley of the two and now they are forever entwined in my head. I maintain that they are more similar than they are different. |

malki the clearly victorian-era characters in your comic generally speak in a pretty modern fashion.
FIX IT. |

All the characters are like that. They are quite modern. They talk about iPhones. |

Where are you getting the error? The site works okay for me. Is it on a feed? |

I got an error about five minutes ago on #470. Then about thirty seconds ago it worked fine. It was on the site because I don't know about the rest of whatever you are talking about. |
