When comic strip artists take a break, they generally post “classic” strips. I’m going to be gone for a week, so I decided to go the same route and run comics that appeared on CIDU back in 2005. Along with your original responses. But feel free to add your own 2011 comments if you think additional comments are necessary.
Since the graphic files include the original comments, and the graphic won’t fit in the amount of space the WordPress template allows me, they’ll be posted in thumbnail form. Just click, and the comic and comments will magically appear in their full-sized glory.
CIDU Classic will appear for seven consecutive days, including Saturday and Sunday.

“Ringman” I could understand, but why would Quasimodo be a good wingman?
And
Sal Biondo sent in the above comic along with the one below for our Synchronicity Collection:

I think most countries would be pretty damn happy with a one-cent annual surplus.

Pinny: What exactly did he do at the zoo to get himself banned? If it involved his wife, then this should probably get an Arlo Award. If it did not, then this should probably be a EWWW contender.
The first time I heard this joke, the punchline was “Unfortunately, they’ll never let us in Schrafft’s again” -Bill

Um… Shouldn’t the joke have been Rodney asking for his nose to be more in proportion to his body? As it’s written, Wiz did precisely as he was asked and there’s no actual joke here.

Because sinners don’t donate? Because sinners steal other people’s donations? Isn’t “sinners welcome” a tenet of the church? What would Johnny Hart say about this?

Of course I understand what professional courtesy is, and why it might apply in this case. What I don’t understand is, what’s the joke here?

Rodney is supposed to be good-looking by comic-strip standards?? This was certainly never hinted at previously, and far from apparent in today’s strip.But if not, I don’t see the joke here.

Then again a cartoonist’s reach should exceed his grasp, or what’s a metaphor?
