Metapost: So long, farewell [for a week] [plus COTW]

Hello, friends! Your COTW in a moment, but just a note that it'll be your last COTW for a little bit because I'm heading out on a li'l vacation tomorrow and your favorite Uncle Lumpy will be here filling in for me until 8/14! He loves you all too much to choose from amongst you, so there's no point in kissing up, but be nice to him anyway and I'll see you soon!

Meanwhile, here's this week's top comment:

"Why would Dagwood and his fellow carpoolers need to talk about either politics or their bosses when they could be talking about his bizarre compact station wagon that appears to be molded from a single piece of plastic? Where'd he get that thing and how fuel efficient is it? That's just the start of questions I'd like answered." --Spunky The Wonder Squid

And your very funny runners up!
