Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for August 12, 2014

Now don’t be stompin’ on your girl’s plans, Ginny.

really great stuff

“You mean you’re SERIOUS?”

Actually more like limping along. Have you seen all the great material that’s in the news that he’s totally bypassing.

I think his Sunday stuff is really good, but the reason he is not doing the daily strip is Alpha House. He is working on the second season. I saw the first season and it is without a doubt some of the best TV ever. It is worth it to me to give up his daiy strip in order to have more Alpha House. Trudeau is one of the best social commentators ever.

Alpha house is not on cable, it is online. Just go to amazon.com and see alpha house there.

What have you done for the last 38 years that is as creative and influential as this comic strip. I’m getting sick of the whiners who complain about this. If Trudeau were to quite altogether and go into a well-earned retirement you would have no right to bitch about it. He doesn’t owe you anything.

Plopsie doesn’t stick around for responses. If you want to say something to her, you have to catch her before her morning plopsie. Even then, I doubt she reads the comments before dumping on them.

Another great from the entertainment world was lost yesterday. RIP Robin Williams. Something many are unaware of in regard to Robin Williams is that he narrated a documentary about the great Father Damien, the Flemish priest who tended to the sick who had Hansen’s Disease, aka leprosy, on the island of Molokai. There is a video available on Amazon, I believe it is called Uncommon Kindness.

Interesting take by Trudeau on female stalking.

This theme comes up years later [post hiatus] when Kim puts the moves on a clueless Mike. “Beam me up Scotty” were her thoughts as I recall.

Female stalking? It looks like she was invited to dinner and was happy about it. She is female, but doesn’t meet description of a stalker in any sense of the word.

Expectation of sarcasm, most likely.

@DHGI think, Rp GG confused Redkaycei Repoc for rpmurray or accidentally clicked reply to Redkaycei Repoc when Rp GG’s reply was meant for rpmurray.
