2007-08-27: Actuary (inside)

This comic is in the following storylines:

• Variations
  A long-running series, maybe the crux of the site. Reader submits a suggestion, and I draw three comics based on that suggestion. Originally all three had to start the same, but it evolved.
• Summer of Keith
  Good old Keith! I used his suggestions, and only his suggestions, for comics all summer long. It was a pretty nice summer.

This comic includes the contribution:

• Keith Prestwich suggested: Rabid becomes an actuary via correspondence

ViewHide the text transcript of this comic.

Rabid: Excellent! My correspondence course is complete, and now I'm a certified actuary!!

[[Snakes and spiders come out of the envelope.]]
Rabid: What?! No!! Where's my certification?! The envelope--it even contains snakes? What are the odds?!

[[Slugs and centipedes come out of the envelope.]]

[[Rats and vultures come out of the envelope.]]

[[Scorpions and sea cucumbers come out of the envelope.]]

Rabish: Sea cucumbers too? No... no, that doesn't usually happen.
