The Slug illustration for this weeks column doesn’t come up on my screen. Is it just me? Just wondered, especially in light of the column’s subject.

I can’t see it either. I get this message…

Doesn’t work for me either. This morning there’s just an “image deactivated” red X box, you right-click, the menu comes up, but “show picture” and nothing comes up. Properties works, though–it’ll tell you what kind of picture is supposed be there, and what its last known address was. Doesn’t list “known aliases”, though.
**Tuba,** I think your front page picture’s done playin’ hooky. Send somebody down to the fishin’ hole and fetch it back, we can’t have this sort of thing…
Unless it’s Jimmy Hoffa, all over again…?

I haven’t been able to see it either, and considering that the pics always reflect the weekly column, I’m dying to get a look at it _this_ week.
