    Yes!  I hate it too!  God, I've been wanting to say that for years!  The
comic strip I hate the most is "The Adventures of Ensign Crusher".  That drives

Yeah.  Of course, I'm a little biased, since her pregnancy coincided exactly
with that of my first neice.  I got the call to come to the hospital on
Easter last year, and grabbed the sunday paper on the way out -- and their
girl was born on the same day.

Also, I don't think there is anything intrinsically wrong with being a

This one reminds me of my absolute favorite.  The box is divided into 4
sections in each section a mother pig is trying to wake up her son for
school.  until in the last section she comes to his bed takes off his

Geech is always stupid.  Once in a while, though, it's funny.

The two women (waitresses?) are in the gym.  
Big one, taking off shoes, says, "Boy, my feet are killing me."
The smaller one, wrinkling nose, "Me too."

The waitress jokes are generally the same as the ones in Shoe, though.

Or the one on Professor Manuel Blum's door at UC Berkeley, where Geech
is playing Poker over the phone.  That one was probably only funny to
people studying Crytography, though...

OK, let's get some discussion here:  in an all-out exchange, who would
come out ahead, Calvin or Jason (of Foxtrot, of course; what were you
thinking?!).  Jason has an age advantage, that is true.  Maybe he
should be handicapped some way.  Calvin can enlist the aid of Hobbes,
and Jason can use Quincy.

So, who wins?  Or do they team up?  Or maybe swap places, and Calvin
can go after Paige, and Jason can have a go at Susie.

Wouldn't this be great to watch?

Anybody remember a strip called "Miles to Go" from the early 80's?
Miles was a dog with a black circle around one eye, and he could
switch which eye it was around.  It was a continuing strip, and a
lot of it was Miles trying to evade a persistent dog catcher named
Norbert Nimrod.  In the end, when the writer stopped the strip, all
of the regular characters flew off together in a hot air balloon.

I remember getting a few chuckles out of it.  The chances of finding
it collected somewhere are probably about nil.

Remember the really old days of Funky Winkerbean?  I used to get a
big kick out of it when I was a kid.

Some of the more memorable elements:

The school computer that liked to play Star Trek
------------------------------------------------
	This was from the time before personal computers, and
	the school computer liked to play Star Trek (when it
	wasn't supposed to).  The staff found out what it was
	doing when they discovered klingons signed up for
	various classes.  It learned how to beam people
	around the school when they tried to confront it.
	They eventually gave up trying to stop it from playing
	when it took over the coffee machine.  Ultimately, it
	was replaced by another computer; this one with a god
	complex.

The "extra-dimensional" lockers
-------------------------------
	The lockers weren't referred to that way, but there
	used to be strips that took place entirely within
	people's lockers (outside view), with conversations
	going on inside about how they were furnished (wall
	to wall carpeting, etc.).

There were a lot of other running gags, like the character
(Funky?) who played frozen pizzas on his turntable, Les as
the hall-monitor with the machine gun mounted on his desk,
the band camp with the exterior shot that looked like a POW
camp, and Funky's air-guitar competitions (with weird stuff
like "I would have won if it hadn't been for that guy doing
a solo standing on his air-amp.").  The characters also used
to spend a lot of time at McArnold's, and Burger Barn.

Aside from the Crankshaft spin-off, wasn't there one in the
late 70's about a television news reporter named John Darling?
I seem to remember it being called "Darling," but I'm not sure.
Anybody remember?

   Well, he did - but only from May 1991 to February 1992. The current stuff is
   obviously very new - just look at the artwork in the Sunday strips! Incredible!

   I remember there was an interview with Watterson in the "Comics Journal" some

Had anyone noticed that in the early C&H, alot of ideas were taken directly
from old "Peanuts" cartoons?  Some are uncannily similar. This isn't taking
away from Bill Waterson - it's only natural that "Peanuts" be such a huge
influence, and he was often able to come up with a new retelling of the
idea that made it seem fresh.

I just thought of this becuse I just bought a copy of an old (1952 or so)
collection at a used bookstore. In one cartoon, Charlie Brown was walking
down the street looking at all the other banal, normal snowmen with much
voiced contempt. He then proceeds to build an abstract snowman (a la Picasso)
in the last frame....

Don't blame Doyle and Sternecky for the thin gruel that's being produced
now by Walt's kids.  They each left the strip, Doyle last summer, and
Sternecky in February (or was it the other way around?)

The main problem with resuscitating a strip like Pogo is that the new
writers are constrained in a way that the original writer isn't -- if
the characters evolve, it's no longer "what it used to be,"
but if they don't, then the strip is doomed to stagnate.
