If you go directly to the site www.gocomics.com everything is there.

Everything thatglitters is not gold..Nothing that glitters iis gold, supposedly Mark Twain

All that glisters is not gold;Often have you heard that told:Many a man his life hath soldBut my outside to behold:Gilded tombs do worms enfold.Had you been as wise as bold,Young in limbs, in judgement oldYour answer had not been inscroll’dFare you well, your suit is cold.

Shakespeare. The Merchant Of Venice

The saying may date back much further.

Don’t you just love the internet and it’s information?

“All that is gold does not glitterNot all those who wander are lost…”J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings (Vol. 1, The Fellowship of the Ring)

And gold, being dull, does not glitter

Dani…. only now that the site is working!

That’s where we all go…. GoComics.com….but as of 2am PDT, or 5am EDT, there were no strip images on the site.

Probably a server glitch, cos not even old ones appeared.

I logged on, got a message that the site was down for maintenance, plus a comic of “Savage Chicken.”

If one can be a singer of songs, then why not a sayer of sayings?

…. or a teller of tales both tame & short and long & wild.

When dit it start?It does not glow.
