I read old Calvin and Hobbes and Bloom County strips on the Web, and I still read Dilbert, Pearls Before Swine, and Monty. It is rare that I actually laugh, but every once in a while, there is a good one.

Honestly, I find more humor from random stuff on the 'net than comics.

Dave and Buster's restaurant chain advertises that "Everyone has a Fun." A "Fun" being something like an inner self that doesn't take life so serious.

I don't get to go to Dave and Buster's.

My Fun was tied up, shot twice in the back of the head, and dumped in a swamp somewhere in New Jersey around 9 years ago.



In case you don't have a D&B in your area, this is what I am referring to:

Beetle Bailey has been about af un-funny as Peanuts. Both are total waste of space. Dilbert is the only one that ever has anything funny anymore.

Far Side and Calvin & Hobbs, pretty much the pinnacle of comics. Except for Dilbert, the rest are total crap.

Died with C&H and the Far Side.

On the last day of Calvin and Hobbes, I was driving Seattle to southern Oregon and dictated a poem into a tape recorder I had to carry everywhere..
I don't remember most of it, but here's how it started.


Today we lose a boy and beast
Who, upon our laughter, did feast
More important than Emperor Nero,
No ordinary newspaper Comic Strip hero...

I don't remember the rest of it though. Sure wish I could.
