0053 - Just a Little Comic About a Little Thought
Added 2024-02-26 16:00:05 +0000 UTCThis is just a little comic with a little idea in it. Lyle does not burst through the wall with a buzzsaw, raging about the inadequacy of the present. Maybe this comic is kind of peaceful. It is a snatched glimpse of a small moment.
There will still be the usual new strip Friday. Today's comic is just a little one. I like to think that Sparky Schulz would have read this in silence, noted that it was a smooth experience, and then gone into the other room to see what his wife was up to. (She was reading a different thing, a small article about Johnny Carson's love for memorizing lists, and she finished it right about the time that he came in.)

2024-03-02 02:22:37 +0000 UTCJesus, Onstad — this is a gut punch of lovely wisdom and unvarnished sincerity. Thank you. "Allow that there will be something you love, and let it teach you devotion" is up there with Shandling's admonishment to "Give what you didn't get." Words to love by.

2024-02-26 21:37:24 +0000 UTCIn the day Beef was my favorite character. We had a lot in common. As I've gotten older I've started to enjoy Cornelius more and more. I have young people now who come to me for advice for some reason and I try to keep Mr. Bear in mind when I dispense what little wisdom I have. This strip is very good advice.

2024-02-26 17:23:59 +0000 UTCWould also work as a '15 years in the future' comic with Connie behind the bar at The Dude and Catastrophe tutoring a teenage Philippe.

2024-02-26 16:42:37 +0000 UTCamazing simple thing to start the week. at first i thought this was from the archive, it feels like something from 03
Cy Heffley
2024-02-26 16:18:51 +0000 UTCHe’s lived a lot, Connie has, and though he can occasionally get cranky and cynical, he’s a fundamentally decent and kind fellow, with the compassion that comes from living with the best and the worst of life. Nice way to start a Monday, Onstad- gives me a little hop in my step; good stuff!

2024-02-26 16:09:29 +0000 UTCI can vividly picture Cornelius shaking his head very slightly as he says "No" with an expression that resembles a sort of facial shrug.

2024-02-26 16:05:39 +0000 UTCI like the occasional Achewood that DOESN'T immediately skewer my heart like a lump of kefteh at a kebob joint.
