I know that several of you are big comic strip fans and read your favorites every day. If you're more like me, you don't keep up because you find so many of the published strips tedious and unfunny. Thankfully, Josh reads the comics so you don't have to. Josh helpfully reminded me why I don't read Family Circus, B.C., Lockhorns, Ziggy, or Spider-Man.
Oh man, make sure you read the Family Circus reviews on Amazon.com
A pretty straight forward tome from Keane. It's so easy to see why he was a favorite of Stalin.
I presume that many of you internerds heard long ago about the Dysfunctional Family Circus. This was a website where people submitted much less...uh...family-oriented captions to FC cartoons. The lawyers got to it in 1999 but if the internets are anything they are certainly self healing.
