Real bloggers......
....blog every day, but my schedule says "hah!" to that.
"For Better Or For Worse" is just precious, isn't it? That's all I gotta say.
Maybe I wasn't looking very hard, but today, I swear it, is the first time that I ever saw Huey from "The Boondocks" look concerned. Usually, he's got that perma-frown working. Granted it was only for two panels, but still, shocking. Anyway, what I really want to know is what's granddaddy's deal and why is he hollerin' for help? (The suspense, is this gonna wrap up tomorrow or something? Don't leave me hangin'!)
Seriously, if "Pearls Before Swine" keeps up that anti-gator slant, there will be a gator-revolt and lots of painful political advertising, besides, gators are found mostly in Florida, and I live in Florida, so don't piss off the gators, Mr. Pastis!
And you know, "Non-Sequitur" is really quite intriguing in its unfolding storyline and today seems to be taking on a hint of social commentary. But I'm not the demographic that most papers cater to, so how's this story going down with the papers? In the economics-driven arena of mass media, who's got time for story development. The editors are probably hoping Wiley throws in some jokes and sight gags, and soon!

Call me a...whatever would be appropriate here, but I was a little sad about The Boondocks on Sunday. I thought those boys were being lazy not helping out their granddad.
Did we ever find out what happened to Granddad? I'm with ya - or was this strip just a really sharp commentary on youth apathy in the 21st century?
i think i just have a soft spot for old people.
but, yes, i think you are probably on the mark there. kids today seem to lack the same sort of reverence for their elders. we were certainly accused of being apathetic.
Considering the amount of backhanded smackdown that Granddad has laid on the young-un's, perhaps they're not responding more out of fear than apathy!
