Transcript:
Referee: Text messaging plays to teammates, number 61, 47 and 81 on offense. 15-yard penalty, first down! The NFL is forced to add a new penalty to the rule book.
Trying to hold a conversation with a teenager these days is almost impossible,their cellphones are always going off,and of they have to answer the text immediately.
To cure a teens texting habit I have found that snatching the phone from their hand works quite well, and until they can repeat verbatim what I have told them, they will not get the phone back. I speak once in my house and I DO NOT REPEAT MYSELF.
The Bound and Gagged cartoon IS EXACTLY the same cartoon as this one. This is no coincidence. THe cartoon is too precise. I really would like to know what’s behind this. Either they purposely did this to play with people’s heads or both of them uses a writer for their jokes and this writer sold them the same cartoon. Something’s up here!

Coincidentally, my Close to Home and Bound & Gagged are right next to one another on my GoComics page, so I really had to take a double-take!

One of these two cartoonists needs to address this. I doesn’t look good.
