The best man for the job is a woman…that line outlived its interest decades ago, and I cringe when I hear/see it on a certain TV show’s promo. Don’t get me wrong—I lived it in the ’70’s and 80’s, but I think we are well past that stage.Really, now for the technology issues, you need to find a child to figure out how to work things.
Once again, today’s headlines include the sad news that the oldest man in America has died.I believe “Uncle Walt” is older than this gentleman was.It’s time to “freeze” this strip, and no longer let the characters age in real time …. if not, then Uncle Walt either becomes a 125-year-old, or he moves on to the Old Caroonists Home.
Not all of them even have words. My new printer came with illustrations only, and my new computer was just as bad – illustrations only for unpacking and installing the battery and “here’s the power button”. Everything else was left to your own ingenuity.

If Boog shows up, you better have a bunch of cartoon DVDs.

She found the Engish part of the directions — and understood the quasi-English?

Does this mean that he messed up on the first one he brought home? He must be my age.

Thank you Nina! My husband does the same thing with the PC too.

Nina read what my grandson used to call, the "constructions’.He was too young to read the words, but put things together by looking at the drawings.
