This strip goes out to my friend Monica, a fencing goddess who can and does beat the boys. The Aikido idea comes from my friend Mark, also a fencer and all around cool guy.

Barry said, “The Goodman’s Aikido is a tip of the hat to my good, old friend David (Schlomo)Goodman, a black belt in Aikido, and all around great guy, reading us from Israel.”

If you’re looking for a good book to read this summer, try Geek Mafia, I just started reading it, but it’s a blast.
