Annie by Jay Maeder and Alan Kupperberg for June 04, 2010

Bonsoir à vous tous de bonnes personnes

Bonsoir, mon ami!

I’ll miss Agent Shuter….

I’m gonna miss the whole dang thing.

We’ll need English subtiltles for the comments if this keeps up!

Good morning everyone.

And how are all my friends(?) doing this morning?

LS. I don’t speak French, or Creole, but I think I get it…more or less. Good morning to you, too, sir.

Today’s avatar is mis-named. It’s actually Cisco Grove, along I-80 in the Sierra Nevada Mtns. in CA. Pleasant to look at in this weather out here. Taken Feb. 1964

Wish your avatrs could be bigger, Slim. They certainly look interesting.

Hello………………………, my fellow sock puppets……………….

I’m back home……!!!!!

I’ve miss y’all, and Annie of course. Daddy Warbucks and Sandy, too!

Jet lag is setting in……don’t know how long I’ll last tonight.

GM, Leaky, Marg, MLady, VBill, LordD, WW, S Slim, Davidf42 and everyone.

Welcome back, MLady!

Neither do I Slim…….I had to google it. ;-)

Welcome Back MontanaLady

It sure is nice to have you back……….Hope you had an excellent trip!!! :-))

Thanks, Lonewolf…….I would get caught up with the comments sometime in the a.m., but it’s not the same as being up with the Night Owls.

Thanks for remembering me!!!

Thanks, Leaky and Marg………………

I’m turning into a Pumpkin……….We landed around 11 last night ) 1:00 eastern) , and got about 4 hours of sleep…………….so……………… it’s time to catch up on the zzzzz’s……………..

Um Leaky you are going to clean those two bones up off that person aren’t you?

Welcome back indeed, MontanaLady. How’s the weather up thjere? Less humidity, I’m sure?

LeakySqueaky, you disappointed me, mon ami. Iwas picturing you along a bayou somewhere boilin’ up some crawdads and….. Oh, heck.

lmao@rac0308

Slim……….I would totally be lost in that part of the country.

I is strikly a city boy.

Bon nuit, mes amis!

Have a good one Marg.

Whats up with VistaBill……..he’s a hit and run commenter. Guess we’ll have to reduce his big fat paycheck again. :-((

I plan to put up a new one every morning if possible. If I am not in the picture, then I shot it. Got hundreds of them and a few that I think aren’t too bad. All will have information of some kind in their name.

I got to talking about pictures and almost forgot. This morning I post the fourth and last verse of…… Hey, you’re not supposed to clap and cheer until AFTER I post it!

NOMAD verse 4

From Frisco to Denver, Fort Worth to Portland. From the edge of the sea to prairie heartland. From north to south and east to west. From city streets to high mountain crest. Home’s always been where I spent the night, Before moving on to a new and wonderous sight. I’ve been eye-witness to many a change, and….. I’ve seen so many faces ain’t a one looks strange.

Well I’ve been here and I’ve been there, But I’m still a long way from everywhere. I’ve lived in the city and ou\t on the range, And I’ve seen so many faces ain’t a one looks strange

good stuff Slim

I can not believe that I just went to Dick Tracy’s defense? He was called a quisling in the first comment..

I told the commenter to look quisling up in a thesaurus, under “traitor”.

I guess I’ve done my deed for the day, be it good or bad. I’m gonna make my tea and go to bed.

No! Not that, leaky! I promise I’ll try harder!

Good morning y’all.

Concerning the comments to MLaday and VBill -

You know, I was gone 3 days and nobody even missed me. I am really really jealous.

Bonjour, mes amis!!

Nine more days. (Sob!)

davidf42…………You only THINK you were not missed.

Wait till you get your paycheck with 3 days taken out. :-)))

Hope you were ok.

Oh, no! I forgot that you would dock my pay!

Yes, I’m fine. Had to attend the boring annual conference. Some day I’ll retire and won’t have to go to those things.

LittleRedDress - You indicated yesterday that you have a collection of Leonard Starr’s Annie. Is there a way we can hook up on line so that maybe you can share those?

Welcome back ML and davidf42!

Thank you VistaBill!

I’m glad to be back, VB and Lonewolf, and LS, and Slim, Marg, and Davidf. Sorry, Davidf, I didn’t check the strips each day, so I hope you had a good time.

I’m not used to all that humidity………I LOVE my NorthWest!!!!

Oh, Leaky…….I never did get a paycheck. Is it ‘cause I’m a country gal???

David, be glad to share what I have with you. It’s really some great stuff, but with a lot of gaps in it. I was just going through 1986 last night and was disappointed to find so much missing. You can contact me at tracyman58@yahoo.com if you’d like.

MontanaLady, actually I had a horrible time. I hate these conferences. Just a silly waste of time and money. And to add insult to injury, the Marriott didn’t even have wi-fi in the room. But I am glad to be back just the same.

i had great fun playing FDR in a community theatre production of Annie. Now I’d be asked to play Daddy. Buy and read the reprint books. She may be back with new and hopefully better artist/writer.

MontanaLady………..Have you forgotten?

You signed up as a volunteer because you said you were independently wealthy.

@davidf42…….On a serious note……..Most conferences are a waste of time and money!! Mucho experience on that front. :-))

Great. let’s end the series just as it’s getting interesting. So, no more on the Blue Circle.

We probably won’t even know if Annie’s shoes got wet?

Checked here, took a look in at Srenda Starr, there are moments when her inirtials wouls make a good name for the strip? Also checked Dick Tracy, don’t know ewhy, and noticed his initials kind of fit his strip?

Have decided to watch a bad movie, “The Blob”.

See ya all at the flip-flop with a new avatar,

Morning, Anniephans!

Only 9 days left for this fine comic strip.

I’ve been wondering where to go after we reach the end. Would ya’ll like to continue on with the Dick Tracy crossover story from 2014?
