That picture of the Far Side characters is funny.
For that alone, Thanks to Steve for sprinkling Gary’s humor here lately. Love it.
That one above would make a good greeting card.
A few TBP big dogs are represented there.
Ya got your Caveman EC, Big Bear Llpoh, Professor Stucky, Maggie, and Hardscrabble’s Cow.
The only one I’m stumped by, is the little shit four eyes standing on the stool, front and center.
Now, who the hell on the platform does that represent? Hmmmmm….
Any suggestions?
I’ll check back in, to see what the peanut gallery thinks.
Meantime, HNY, and all the best in 2020 and beyond to the regyoolahs,
in particular to A & A (Admin and Avalon), and the rare few I’m in private email contact with.
Ye know who ye are. I consider you good buds, and I wish thee well.
~Cheers!
If this double-posts, mea culpa.
I think my PC over-indulged last night and is hung over.
Thanks Suds.
Gary is working again.
New one’s are coming. YAY!!!!!
Steve, Austrian Pete mentioned some challenges w/ peepers.
Here’s hoping all is well, and those are now working right, too, if I have the story right?
I am feeling much better thanks. The double vision is almost under control.
It’s kind of one or two steps forward and one step back, but I’ve been through it before and I know the drill.
Thanks for the kind words and my thanks to Austrian Peter for posting a notice about it on his Jigsaw Puzzle 84 article. He is a good friend.
Jigsaw Puzzle 84!
You are a just in time commenter, there, suds bucket!
I was looking for a “bear” related comment to drop this New Year’s Day nugget I stumbled upon while peering at the Mandela Effect regarding Dinky Co’s and Plato and Marty and a couple others discussion on quantum theory. I thought of Timothy Treadwell’s revision of his life and death…
There are no Horny Blondes or Dirty Monkeys in it, but after watching it now, ten years later, I’m charmed by the successful revision of his strange life.
Thanks for the hilarious renaming of the far siders… I think the short dude is BB or Yo. And, like Adam before you, you missed the serpent down under.
Thx, fren. Say Hi to yer hub 4 me.
Edit / Add: Holy smokes. On a 2nd view, I found the snake at the bottom.
Another platform critter comparison? Oh, the possibilities for suggestions.
You gotta see what I’m hoping another will post…
Reverse Engineer
Is that what your house looks like this morning?
EC probably did beat me to bed. We watched a couple programs and then went to bed about 11. The switch to the Zpack helped, I think. I’m going to try to keep the plans I have to get together with some friends later today.
Happy New Year to everyone! Enjoy each peaceful day. You never know how much longer it will last.
I woke up and it was 2020. I went outside and the sun was shining down like water upon a brand new world, I could feel the love of California residents washed clean of all political sins as it flowed, wafted softly in the wind. 2020 is the last year of the decade but who cares, to the world it is a new decade already and people are on the move.
If your going to 2020
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair.
I can clearly remember parties like that in my youth…….not much else though……
If you can remember the 60’s you didn’t live them.
I can quite clearly recall almost a full day back in 1969, and at least part of a a couple of days in 1968.
At least I think I can…
Steve
The one thing that I do remember and very clearly is getting my draft number……it was 18 (1969). So I decided to earn an Army Scholarship and hope that by the time I graduated it would all over. It was and they paid for most of the college costs. As they did with my master’s with the GI Bill.
How old were you- 3?
18
Holy Shit Batman!We all mad it another year!
I know in many ways things look grim but there are a lot of good things to look forward to,time with friends/family/concerts/fishing/working on 4×4’s/new Far Side /the scintillating views of folks here at this screwed Algonquin Round Table/and many more.
So plan for the worst while hoping/working for the best,may the new decade treat us well.
I wonder what new and exciting entries that lovable pair o pervs, nkit and Bob P (Stretch and Lech) have in store for Friday Fail. What say we include some women with curves, ya skeleton chasers, Halloween’s over. To be fair to the skinnies, though, they sure sport some nice camel toe.
Well, you know what day it is, don’t you?
I only had half a beer officer, but the dog had alot.
