    I welcomed you back earlier at another post, but here I can be more expansive marg. I was thinking that you might be gone through your birthday. What happened? Did you go broke at the blackjack tables?

  8. johnnydoc5

    johnnydoc5 said, 6 months ago

    Why hello Marg!
    Glad to have you back.
    Would love to stay and chat, but I am exhausted, and must be off to bed. Good night all.

    marg you’re baaaack!! Did you win lots of money? What do you think of the changes? French toast & cranberry juice comin’ right up! CLEO, here’s your omelet & coffee!

  11. cleokaya

    cleokayaGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Are you still here JFri? I still am working my way through my list of toons and visit this site after every 10. Have you gone to bed or are you still on the prowl?

  12. Margueritem

    MargueritemGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Hate the changes.
    We only went for two days. Truthfully, we’re not big gamblers, but enjoy eating good food, so we went to the buffet at Wynn the first night, and the buffet at Belagio last night. The buffet at Wynn wins hands down, wonderful food.
    We also window shopped at at all the Forum Shops, and have our Rolexes, and my diamond earrings, all picked out.

    The new bridge that they’re building at Hoover dam is amazing.

    Thanks JFri, Cleo, and JohnnyDoc for the nice welcome back. :-) I did go to bed much earlier without a computer around. ;-)

  17. cleokaya

    cleokayaGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Well JFri, what do you say, shall we head out and seek some knockers, or sit at my place, in front of the fire, with no prospects and no risks.

  18. JFri

    JFri said, 6 months ago

    No thanks, commic, I’ll stay on dry land! Hi everyone! Went to bed at 10:08 p.m. (Eastern) after watching the season 8 finale of “American Idol” last night. After just five hours of sleep, I’m back up again. How’s everybody? Cleo, Doc, Marg, Commic?

  23. Akenta

    Akenta said, 6 months ago

    Good morning and Happy Thursday!! It’s almost time for the long weekend, I’ve been waiting for.

    It seems like they got bold and italics working again (let’s see if this works - it didn’t, but I’ll go back and read the instructions this evening)

    cleo looking at today’s strip, I think we solved the problem of whose underwear you found the other day.

    Akenta said, 6 months ago

    Welcome back marg!!

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Morning Tribe!
    Short shift so I’m home early.
    Good thing, I’m going over to help my sweety clean her garage when she wakes up.
    Now when she’s going to wake up is a good question.

    Welcome back marg!
    I have three ex’s.
    For purposes of general comments I simply say ex as a singular, but there have been three former Mrs. me’s.

    Still hate this new site.
    Guess I’ll go try to run a lap around and see how bad (or good) it is.

  26. Akenta

    Akenta said, 6 months ago

    Morning Doc.

    I’m ok with the new site. I do miss the last comment preview at the top. Now I have to scroll down to see if there is something new.

    Guess I have to get ready for work. We’ll see what things look like later.

  27. Doctor Toon

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Akenta - The recent comment box was helpful.
    Hopefully the powers that be will find a way to return it.
    Non-linear site navigation is less efficient.
    Something needs to be done about the eyestraining background.
    The followers/following is gone.
    Otherwise it’s workable.

    ARE YOU LISTENING, ‘powers that be?’ - LOL

    KingRat said, 6 months ago

    @DrToon the powers that be goes by the name of Kenny Saunders http://www.gocomics.com/people/index/43508 and was making quite a few comments about the new look yesterday (5/20/2009) both here http://www.gocomics.com/bigtop/2009/05/20 (page 6) and over at Pibgorn http://www.gocomics.com/pibgorn/2009/05/20 (page 3).

    also look at the whats new page. http://www.gocomics.com/help/tour

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    LOL! Dusty looks so silly in the last panel! Poor little guy!

    How do you favorite?

    Mornin’ all! What do you think marg? How was Vegas?

  30. Dry

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    JFri and Cleo Just what do you mean by KNOCKERS?

    Not what I think, I hope!

  31. Dry

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    King Rat, Yes I saw Kenny at both places and Eric here as well. Our two strips must keep them hopping! LOL

  32. Doctor Toon

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    KingRat - I was just venting. I did read Kennys’ comments on yesterdays’ Big Top. The new site is growing on me aside from my above stated complaints.

  33. Doctor Toon

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    I should known better. I fed a Troll on Boiling Point and now I have a stalker. I should feel honored. This loon has obviously spent a bit of time researching me. Thought I would give him a face to go with his fascination.
    Hey! Does that make me an A-Lister like Dusty?

  34. Carmy

    CarmyGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Morning Tribe! Please stop the rain! Joy, I’m going nutty over here.
    Dusty looks so cute dancing in the first panel!
    Marg, Welcome Back!

    Morning TRIBE!
    I thought I’d pop in for just a bit to see how our late shift reacted to the changes, and if there were any new improvements.
    Gotta run to the store (20 miles away!) to get some milk, so my kids can have some for breakfast. I could get it closer, but my dear hubby insists we get a certain brand because it is better quality (Braums - a regional restaurant/grocery store). And the closest Braums is about 20 miles away. Another day of school, so I’ll be around to check in every so often.
    Anyone want some breakfast from Braums? They have very good biscuits & gravy, cinnamon rolls, etc.

    JOY & CARMY - whereabouts in FL are you? My in-laws live near Orlando, and I’ve got friends near Miami.

  37. Josh 1360

    Josh 1360 said, 6 months ago

    Good morning again tribe. It’s a gray day here in Georgia’s state capital. While joy get the canoe off the roof, let me explain exactly about where I am: Technically, I not in Metero Atlanta, I’m on the outskirts, just south of it. I live between two of the townships in Clayton County: Jonesboro and the peaceful little haven of Lovejoy, GA. As for someone mentioning I took a trip to Fayettville, N.C., WRONG! I went over to
    Fayettville, GA. just west of Jonesboro over in (where else?) Fayette County. I’ve never been to Fayettville , N.C. That’s too long a ride. Besides, with the economy like it is, I’m glad I don’t have spend all that money and gas traveling,
    despite the holiday weekend that’s coming up.

    Good morning everyone.
    .
    Got down below freezing last night, but today looks much better.
    .
    I’ve been plagued by earworm songs lately, I walk up to find the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s Messiah running through my head, then it switched to the old kid’s song of “Down by the station, early in the morning, see the little pufabillies all in a row…” Now, after reading Joy and Carmy’s posts, I have “Oh no, don’t let the rain come in…”

  39. Doctor Toon

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Thanks to everyone who has been sending me their cool weather.
    Today the high is only supposed to be 56.
    Might rain.
    Great weather for day sleeping. :)

    DigitalFrogGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    I’m disappointed, nobody appears to have caught on to my pun in yesterday’s Eek. Was I reaching too far?

  41. Dry

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Josh, I was questioning if you had gone to Fayetteville, NC because I lived there for 5 years.

  42. cleokaya

    cleokayaGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Morning everyone and I am in a great mood because I have woken up to sunshine. Yee Haw!!! Dry, both JFri and I are collectors of antique door knockers. I thought that we could make a late night visit to various stores in the old town section. I, myself, found a lovely glass knocker that reminded me of my childhood. JFri himself, he found an absolutely stellar pair of knockers that he just couldn’t keep his hands off, so he brought them home. Why?!? What did you think that we were talking about?

  43. Dry

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    ANOTHER GORGEOUS DAY IN PA. Supposed to go up to 86, no clouds just a beautiful blue sky! Eat your hearts out people!!!

    DryGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Whose that handsome man in the avatar? ;-)

  45. cleokaya

    cleokayaGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    I was looking at your handsome mug in your avatar doctortoon and I thought that I might be seeing an orange tabby cat sitting on your shoulder, but upon closer inspection I discovered it is just the background between you and the plant.

  46. Doctor Toon

    Doctor ToonGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    Dry - Do you mean Bucky or Satchel?

  47. serenasakitty

    serenasakitty said, 6 months ago

    Hi everyone. Doct, you’re welcome. It looks like a fair exchange. For the first time in days it is sunny and much warmer here, although I noticed there was still frost on the car. Not the pumpkins yet, though. As for the new site, I guess I’m getting used to it even if I don’t like change. I wish there was a way to just jump ahead to the new posts after I leave for a bit. I spend too much time rereading some just to find where I left off. Well I guess I’ll get off my soapbox for now.

  48. Josh 1360

    Josh 1360 said, 6 months ago

    No hard feelings, Dry. I’ve been in Altanta for 5 years myself. I’m originally from Georgia’s first city, Savannah.

  49. cleokaya

    cleokayaGenius_badge said, 6 months ago

    One change that I like is being able to jump to the next toon with just one click after making a post.
