Born two years after Charlie Brown's debut; mainframe geek for three decades for a great metropolitan bank, now mostly retired but doing a few gigs as a spelling and grammar geek. I've identified with Charlie Brown as a kid, Mike Doonesbury in college, Dilbert at work, and Opus in my free time.

    One of the later books in the series came back to the character who had been reincarnated as a bowl of petunias. It turned out that the character had been reincarnated several times, always as someone or something that was about to die as a result of something done by Arthur Dent.

    The politician jokes are nothing new. Some of them have been around for decades, maybe centuries. (I find some of them tiresome, but they don’t utterly dominate this strip, so I continue reading.)

    But if a bunch of bad jokes are all it takes to bring down an entire democratic/republican system of government, what does that say about the electorate? Do we get the government we deserve?
