A 3 Ring Nursing Home! How many ✨’s?

Actually a good take on the costs and condition of Medical care of the elderly in America. Not to mention the rest of us.

I used to do contract work in Nursing Homes. Some of the places I was sent were true snake pits. It is very sad.

Sounds like we are getting a political cartoon.

Those are good brakes! She must have worked on them herself.

The bright side of climate change.

Someone once said that we may judge a society by the way it treat its most vulnerable members. If there is indeed a just god, we are in deep doo-doo.

Good thing too, because Fall around here feels like winter.

The upside of global warming…

Bring in the clowns. Laughter is the best medicine, right??

Who says climate change doesn’t have advantages ?!!! In summertime the temperature will be a nice and toasty 136 degrees !!!! lol

I’ve had personal email replys from 3 cartoonists: Stephen Pastis, Darby Conley [right before ‘Get Fuzzy’ got super popular – I printed his reply and have it in one of my GF books] and Mr. Cochran. There are only 2 ‘Agnes’ books in print and early on they were very expensive on the second hand market. I’ve since been able to find them in great condition at a reasonable price. Quirky doesn’t begin to describe this strip but, for some reason, I like it.
