Packed with humor and heart, JumpStart is a modern comic strip with a classic feel. At the core of the JumpStart family is Joe Cobb, a big-city cop, and his wife, Marcy, a nurse in a bustling Philadelphia hospital. Their jobs are easy compared to the challenge of raising four kids. At the end of the day, Joe and Marcy want what we all want: a good night's sleep. Their oldest, Sunny, is an avid reader who can answer your questions before you have time to do a Google search. Her brother, Jojo (aka Joseph Cobb, Jr.), has aspirations of being president. In fact, he already is president — of his second-grade class. Joe and Marcy's newest surprise additions are the twins, Tommi and Teddy. This talkative pair began conversing in the womb and are still going strong. Imagine what they'll say when they actually learn to speak! Rounding out the cast is Crunchy, a grouchy but warm-hearted police officer who is Joe's partner, and a host of extended family members and friends. You'll enjoy the wit and wisdom of this colorful, unpredictable cast, which includes the antics of in-laws, co-workers, a 6-year-old doctor, and a texting dog named Snoog-A-Boo.

Sushi?It’s my favourite food! (I can never have too much wasabi.)
Stupid nuts like that don’t know how to eat wasabi. Imagine mistaking it for guacamole! It’s far too solid and grainy.
(Oh, for the smell of a fresh green wasabi root…)

It makes very much sense.

If I was going to be executed, I would order fugu for a last meal. The dish where the chefs have to be licensed, etc, done wrong it could kill.
WHich in my case, I’d get a fatal meal, and then the pardon from the Governor would arrive.

Sushi = bait.

When my youngest granddaughter, A., was five, her mom had her in a sushi bar. She thought her mom’s wasabi was green-tea ice cream and stole a big mouthful.

My husband mistook Chinese mustard for plain old French’s, and spread an egg roll top to bottom with the stuff. It was like one of those cartoon charactors where the eyes pop in and out. Poor soul! We all felt sorry for him but couldn’t stop laughing long enough to help.

Ever since man discovered fire, there has been no good reason to eat raw fish.

Actually, sushi doesn’t necessarily have to have fish in it, raw or otherwise, any more than a burrito needs meat.

Except that it is delicious. Have never developed a taste for wasabi, but grated ginger serves well.

I had a good friend do the same thing…laughed until I hurt…and all the water she drank made it worse.

Anyone who dines in a sushi restaurant (Japanese), and thinks they would serve guacamole (a mexican sauce) as a side, deserves to have his stupid mouth torched.
