You can get these online guys. You don't need no stinking paper. Let me find the link...

Oh come on now, "Close to Home" looks like it was drawn by someone with Parkinson’s and is just a "Far Side" rip off. I know "Brevity" is just as close a rip off, but at least the artwork doesn't look like a third grader drew it. Give "Pearls Before Swine" a chance, I used to read it in the Frederick paper. It may take a bit to get used to, but it's hilarious. I do have to admit, I did enjoy The Lockhorns (but only when Leroy makes fun of Loretta, the other way ain't funny 'cause it's true), but Shoe? It hasn't been the same since the original guy drawing it died.

btw, here are the links to the other strips online:

laugh.gif You have to admit that that sounds about right.

Thanks for the links, Magoo. I forgot all about trying to find some.
