Re: RIP Bill Keane (creator of Family Circus comic strip)

RIP Bil Keane. One of the only comics I'd still look at.

RIP.

You're forking crazy. Garfield retired that trophy long, long ago.

I don't know if you can post from The Other Family. I've tried in the past, but that was years ago. The last time I went to that site I fell over from laughing so hard.

Someone posted a link once before and it pissed me off. That shirt is borderline kiddie porn and, no, that's not an overreaction. It depicts young children in sexual situations.

You don't want that showing up on your computer, especially if you're using the company's computer.

Word to the wise: Avoid. It's not that funny anyway.

Not much, as I prove all too often around here, offends me...but I just checked out the Other Family and made it through exactly 3 one-panel comics. All of which were kiddie pornish.

It's hilarious.

Garfield is funnier than Family Circus and Cathy combined, which means not at all...

Zero times zero is still zero. Unless Chuck Norris is 'rithmeticing.
 
I appreciate what Bil did moreso than the Cathys and Garfields of the world.

He didn't pimp the fork out of it, ala Garfield (except when the Family Circus were the official mascots of KOA Kampgrounds), and, it's much harder, IMO to do one single panel and make it tight, vs doing a three or four panel strip that continues for a bit, giving you a chance to have part of it slip in quality.

You need to Google "Flintstones fork" on Google images. You'll pish yourself.

Prickly City. The guy tries to be slick, and he's got nothing.
 
I enjoyed Family Circus and wish him RIP.

Went to the Charles Schultz Museum this weekend and forgot all the warm joy that Charlie Brown and the gang brought to me when I was younger.

Cartoons are wonderful. Too bad they're lost somewhat in today's Internet age.
