This one was sent to me by so many people, I’m not sure there’s anybody left to read it now.

And speaking of behinds… A lot of you have sent me comics over the past couple of weeks, but I’ve fallen ridiculously behind in dealing with it all. My apologies. Eventually I’ll find myself along, unbroken chunk of time, and that day you’ll probably se site updates several times an hour.

S.P. Charles: “As of November 10, it appears as if Tom Batiuk plans to ignore the fact that Westview’s highest-profile veteran is home for his very first Veteran’s Day.”

Something to do with the fact that it’s almost Veteran’s Day??

Personally, I’m rather impressed by the parallel parking job.

But it’s gay rape humor, so it’s okay because that’s funny.

Quite a few people wrote to say they were unsettled by this one.

Timothy Carignan: Sure, they’re trying to copy the innocent “Love Is” comic. However, Jeremy and his girlfriend are horny teenagers, and now they’re in the comics naked?

Stupidest Hit-and-Run Driver EVER

Cidu Bill on Nov 5th 2009

I can make light of this because my son came away with only a few bruises, but…

Riding his bike through Boston this morning and a delivery driver from a local bakery, his view of the road partially obscured by a bus, apparently figures Hey, it’s Boston, the middle of the day, nobody’s going to be on the road, so he just shoots out semi-blindly and, well, you know what happens next.

After totaling my son’s bike, he doesn’t bother to stop and see whether he’s totaled my son, and he keeps driving. Because who’s going to know it was him, right? In a van with the bakery’s name all over it, leaving the bakery’s parking lot, with a million witnesses around. Way to make a clean getaway, dude…

Police expect to nail his ass any time now.

Campaigning Question

Cidu Bill on Nov 5th 2009

I’m wondering whether anybody knows… When the President travels to campaign for, say, a gubernatorial candidate, who pays for the Air Force 1 expenses, security for the President, police overtime onsite, etc?

And just for the record, I can’t speak for Virginia, but no matter what you might hear, the New Jersey election was not a referendum on either Obama or the Democratic Party: it was a referendum on Jon Corzine. When New Jerseyans went into the voting booth yesterday, Barack Obama was the last thing on our minds: We were too busy holding our noses as we decided whether the thought of reelecting Jon Corzine was distasteful for us to vote for Chris Christie.

Personally, I voted for Chris Daggett, since in this case voting for the third party candidate wasn’t taking a vote away from any decent candidate. He had me at “I’m not Corzine or Christie.”

As it happens, despite recent polls predicting up to 20% of the vote for Daggett, he ended up with about 5%. Which means, God help us, New Jerseyans got the governor we deserve.

Nicole nominated this one for a double Geezer award: “Gomer Pyle was canceled (cough cough) forty years ago in 1969, and the Longest Day was a movie that came out in 1962. Was the plan to make sure half of the population did not get the comic?”

Is Curtis being sarcastic — or ironic, if you will — and his father responding in kind? Otherwise, I’m not sure what’s the point of this other than Ray Billingsley telling us he’s pissed off at his credit card company.
