Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for February 15, 2013

Just make sure it’s dark chocolate! You can also read about the health benefits of wine and beer too. :-)Good morning, Cathy clan!! I will most likely not post until Monday. Lil has a 2-day competition this weekend and we’re staying in a hotel to make the commute easier. Have a wonderful weekend!(p.s. I can’t wait until these competitions are over! Just one more in April after this one…)

Well, they are used as pain killers Susan. lol But again I’m with Cathy. Chocolate is way better than spinach. Happy Day.

They rarely come out with studies about the ill effects of alcohol because studies like that don’t sell. But the fact is that alcohol is more damaging than you might think.

A belated Happy Valentine’s Day to the Clan — sorry I missed y’all yesterday. Friends here always warm the heart.

I remind myself of the benefits of chocolate every time I pop some into my mouth (even when it’s not dark chocolate!).

lightenup — I have a friend with MS who lives in Stone Mountain. I’ll see if she loves her doctor or if he/she is just OK.

Who doesn’t like/love chocolate more than spinach?!? If given the choice between the two, I’d take the chocolate every single time of course!!!!! ;-)

Hi, rgcviper!

lightenup: Good luck to lil lightenup on her competition this weekend. We’ll be rooting for her! Don’t forget to let us know on Monday how it went. :-)

hendelca: So sorry about your friend and I’m very glad to hear you’re finally starting to feel a little better. It’s so difficult when you lose people you care so much about, isn’t it? My dad has been gone 10 years now and not a day goes by that I don’t think of him. So many times I’ve seen something online or on t.v. that I think he’d really appreciate knowing about and I’d be just about ready to pick up the phone and give him a call when I remember I can’t do that anymore. While I may not be able to talk to him physically, I can still do it in my heart and mind and I always hope that, if it’s at all possible, he can still see, hear and feel me talking to him anyhow — and that he knows I’m doing okay.

Hello and Happy Friday everyone! I tried to come here yesterday but for some reason, Go Comics wouldn’t let me sign in. Anyone else have that problem? Whatever was going on, I’m just glad that it’s fixed today so that I could be back here again with all my nutty “Cathy” friends! Hope everyone had a really nice day today and that you have an even better weekend!!!!! :-)

Mmm—chocolate …

HI, MOM. Happy Friday, nutty and wonderful Clan.

Hi Cathyites!! I like both — chocolate is great if it is really really dark chocolate. I also love spinach — but not with my chocolate.
