Dave Ostow comes up with the most frightening first-person game ever. As I’ve said before, I reached a level of enlightenment when I realized that, as middle management, I could adopt the practice of other bosses: Show up, have a drink, greet the people in my department and get the hell out before anybody starts […]
Scott Hilburn wins the Fortuitous Timing Award, though if he’d run today’s Argyle Sweater (AMS) 24 hours earlier, he might be up for a Pulitzer. Yes, it’s a different form of airline chaos, but given his lead time, I think he did pretty well. Besides, the types of chaos that ensued appear to have been […]
Sunday’s Bizarro (KFS) provoked both a laugh and a sigh. My dad, who died 30 years ago last week, did indeed get a label maker at one point — the old school plastic-strip type — which became a brief but intense obsession. The “brief” part is likely what kept our mother from clonking him in […]
Joel Pett wraps up both the message and the problem of World Press Freedom Day in a single cartoon: We all want truth. We just can’t agree on what it is. We should expect spin, the presentation of facts from a partisan viewpoint. John Cole offers a chuckle about the FBI search of Rudy […]

I have some sympathy for Toobin, because I often just restart my phone to get some persistent app […]
I will confess to feeling much like the fellow in Brewster Rockit, and I say “confess” because I feel kind of guilty over being in a state that ranks 42nd in per capita Covid cases, with most of those seeming to be in the southeast corner, or, as one might call it, “suburban Boston.” And, […]
The Lockhorns sounds a predictable note this morning, but I chuckled. The strip has been quite hip in recent months about technology and similar things, which I wouldn’t have expected from an old-school Bickersons sort of strip, but that makes me surprised Loretta doesn’t realize Leroy can click-click-click until he gets to the NFL Network […]
