Garfield by Jim Davis for October 19, 2024

It has Garfield, Odie and Liz in the story. That’s a start.

This comic strip

It’s boring Jon, boring. That’s the history of your life.

drawing a blank?

instead of an 8½ x 11 piece of paper

maybe try a 3 × 5 index card

It has something to do with a cat.

“It was the worst of times and I do mean the worst of times…..”

Inhale. Exhale. Repeat.

A blank stare and a blank piece of paper.

If Jon manages to pull it off he’ll make a bundle as a cure for insomnia.

Chronicles of Wasted Time

Poor Jon. At least Garfield, Odie, and Liz are with him.

I wonder whether Jim Davis even draws this strip anymore.

if u think abt it, all the embarassing and painful things that happened in Jons life would be quite interesting

Jon’s life is basically feeding Garfield and Garfield pranking Jon.

Remember One Direction’s big hit? The story of my life, I take her homeI drive all night to keep her warm and timeIs frozen (the story of, the story of)The story of my life.

Close your eyes and then it’s pastStory of my life~

The story is already abridged.

Opening line: “I started out as a child….”

Try looking at old photos and old home movies, Jon, and maybe that would give you a clue on what the story of your life is.

Think long and hard, Jon

I guess I should have taken notes.

Nothing. The story of his life is nothing.

Going to be a short story.

You can write a chapter at least Jon, right? Right?

Here’s an open John. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…”

Jon’s life is an empty book.

The Story Of My Life is the title of three different songs, done by Marty Robbins, the Unrelated Segments and One Direction. Take your pick, Jon!

We’re just bubbles in the stream of life – here only briefly before we pop

Obviously Jon wasn’t either.

I guess he was making other plans.

Originally published from 1883 to 1936 as a general-interest and humour publication, it featured contributions from many important writers, illustrators and cartoonists of its time including Charles Dana Gibson1 and Norman Rockwell. Henry Luce purchased the magazine in 1936 and with this the publication was relaunched, becoming the first all-photographic American news magazine. Its role in the history of photojournalism is considered[by whom?] one of its most important contributions to the world of publishing.

Jon,Garfield, Odie, and Liz. The End.

it started on a dark and stormy night, or was that another comic strip

Well, you came into existence on paper circa 1978, before then you only existed one dimensionally in Mister Davis’s head.

It’s NOT what you remember that counts…

It’s what others remember…

In Jon’s case The Less…The Better….

We know Jon grew up on a farm.

Good title, Garf.

Bad when the story of your life leaves the paper still unmarked.

Wake up, injure yourself, work on your comic, feed Garfield, eat, sleep, repeat.
