Adam@Home by Rob Harrell for August 01, 2009
Transcript:
Clayton; Well, dad. We have to hand it to you. Katy; Yep! We made $40 selling cold drinks. Adam; Whoa! That's $20 each. But you need to repay me $10 for all the drink mix and cups. Clayton; Shucks. That leaves us only $15 each. Adam; And don't forget $10 in sales and income tax. Katy; $10 in tax?? That's an outrage! Let's go dump tea in the city hall fountain in protest! Clayton; We can't! We sold it all! Adam; Another revolution doomed by success.

Well you might as well get used to it now. Taxes eat up a large portion of everyone’s income.

While I was working for a time the company offered a bonus pay option of $10 per hour as opposed to the normal $6 I was earning at the time it sounded good but in the end the Government took home more than I did

So DOES Adam work anymore? Or does he just take money from his kids?
And what happened to his computer?

Bassett stopped working on this strip months ago, unfortunately. He now works exclusively on Red and Rover. I think the new toonist threw Adam’s computer out the window while I wasn’t looking, but I haven’t seen Adam working or talking of work since this change. I think he’s on a permanent vacation. Pity.

Ah, Yes!
That moment of epiphany when Liberal democrats become Conservative republicans!

DeeBerg - The Democrats are going to take my money and give it to the poor. The Republicans are going to take my money and give it to the rich. Whichever party is in power is going to take my money, so I’ve decided I would rather it went to the poor than the rich. So, I will STAY a Democrat - I’ve HAD my epiphany.

I like Adam since Harrell has taken over. In my opinion it has put new life into the cartoon. And, on a similar note, I like Red and Rover.
