No less believable than the story of a Confederate ironclad ship loaded with gold winding up in western Africa in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Hollywood actually made a movie about that.

I love how the cat stays on his shoulder.
Having gone through the archives of “Lost Side of Suburbia” I cannot see Captain Eddie now without remembering his cameo in the stories of Derringdo Dan. Those two have much in common.

“(The Denver Post) threw both ‘Non Sequitur’ and ‘Doonesbury’ out, because of their ‘political’ position(s). . .”As I mentioned elsewhere, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel threw out “Non Sequitur” and “Doonesbury” because they lost in a reader popularity poll. At about that time, the Milwaukee NPR jettisoned classical music, and the MKE full-time jazz station changed to rock or some such. . . .

Not for the first time, I wish I knew where Offshore Flo’s diner is. If the food is half as good as the conversation, it’d be worth the trip!

Sorry, my friend, but I have to take issue with you. Chiropractic isn’t a sbstitute for anything; it should be part of sound, sensible medical care. Chiropractic isn’t a cure-all, but it can help with musculo-skeletal injuries (such as whiplash and pinched nerves) better than regular physicians can. I can walk better because of the heel lift my chiropractor recommended; the physicians never noticed that my right leg is longer than the left. One the other hand, thanks for the heads-up. Now I’ll know what paper to avoid if I ever visit Denver!

Love the Congo Rivah panel, and…call me dense, but never realized the cat was named Paulie.

Oh, my… Okay, that’s not the sort of chiropractic care I’d be looking for either. :) REAL chiropractors are great; and honest ones will refer their patients to general practitioners or orthopedic surgeons as needed. My chiropractore also has massage therapists in the same offices; I’ve had a half-hour therapeutic massage, then a chiropractic treatment, and felt SO much better afterwards. As for the Post, it’s easy to avoid; just like I can avoid the only local paper here. I just don’t read ’em.
