About Jump Start
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.

We have two relatively new rescue dogs, one of whom is only 5 months old. The older one is about 2 years and is teaching the puppy important things like: Sometimes when you bite something, it bites back.

My last ex-wife had to learn that.

My sister in law, Connie, let her Lhasa Apso, Buttons, stay with her mother, Mamie, a few times.
.
Once, Buttons decided to bite Mamie. She bit him back. He never did that again.
.
He came close with me, but he clomped his mouth closed just before his teeth got to my hand. I didn’t feel the need to “bite him back”, but I didn’t tease him by threatening to take back the pig ear that i’d just given him.
Ever again!!!
