All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Calvin and Hobbes, right?

Where do people find comics anymore? Nobody reads newspapers.

The snowflakes don't like to be called snowflakes, so I just call them reality impaired. :lol:

Until they disappear entirely, I buy the Sunday edition of the two papers that are still regularly printed here, I read them all the way through and save the comics sections for last.

Yes. Calvin & Hobbes was as if Peanuts and Doonesbury had a love child.

Oh, neat site!

My husband used to buy an annual book series of the best political cartoons. I don't know if those books are still made, but they were quite interesting, too.
