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.

Two jokes from the old Soviet Union=
Khruschev disguises himself and goes to a movie theatre. Before the movie begins, a newsreel featuring him appears. All except stand up and start singing the Internationale. Khruschev is stunned by the love, and starts crying tears of joy. Then the people next to him elbow him= “We feel the same way, but stand up and sing you idiot, or we’re all in trouble!”
Variation= Krhushchev goes to a collective farm in disguise. He walks up to a farmer, starts talking, casually asks what the farmer thinks of Khruschev. The farmer turns white, grabs Khruschev by an arm, frog-marches him to a house. Inside the farmer checks to be sure they’re alone, he closes all the doors, shuts all the windows, pulls the curtains across, turns off the light, and then whispers to Khruschev= “Personally, I like him!”

My husband’s Shih Tzu reacted the same way every time I came back from the beauty parlor. He always thought I was somebody he didn’t know and greeted me more enthusiastically than usual.

My husband once shaved off his moustache and goatee just for a change. I had never seen him without them before. He looked soooo different that I had a really hard time getting used to him being around. I complained all the time until he grew them back.

My cat, Sassy, didn’t like it when I came home after dyeing my hair.
I don’t know if it was from the smell or the change in the color of my hair!

Benny is one to talk! He used to be blond but here has brown hair!
(With his blond mop and stocky frame, I always thought he was modeled on Boris Johnson, the mayor of London.)
