So why is it okay to terminate unborn children as a choice about one’s own body, but I have to wear a mask and not be near other people? Can’t have both.
I actually doubt there will be a debate. Biden called a lid again today, and yesterday he was wheezing like a rhino when he spoke. I would wager we are going to get an announcement he has covid. I could be wrong, they could be trying to change his peak cognitive hours to the debate time. He might have sundowners. My Opa had that. Horrible thing. Makes you really confused, scared and sometimes mean. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
I was accused of drinking kool aid. How is THAT not insulting? I am a very intelligent person, a university educated teacher, who arrived at my position through research of available facts. I am trained to analyze data. I stated them as such, and was attacked with … feelings and opinions. Again, deflection. Projection. There is a huge difference between fact and opinion. It IS illogical to draw the conclusion that Trump is a nazi sympathizer because he got a peace prize nomination and Hitler did too. You cannot deny that. I didn’t call YOU illogical, but the midevilmommy person doing the arguing.
The strip and it’s characters began in October of 1950. Patty appeared in 1966, putting her birth likely around 1955. It WAS more common then, around 1 in 1000. In 2019 it was around .174 per 1,000. I was exploring the possibilities with everyone else. Sheesh. Never mind.
Never! I am in it to win it! I follow dozens of comics, but this strip is one of my top five favorites of all time! (Sheldon, Calvin and Hobbes, Breaking Cat News, Wallace the Brave and Cul de Sac, in no particular order. PvP and Frazz bringing up the rear.) This strip is a rare gem that captures everything that makes a strip great: universal appeal, both subtle and obvious brilliant humor, wonder, GREAT and distinctive art, introspection, humanity, extraordinary and appealing characters (LOVE the mom) and simply put … joy. This strip has gotten me through lockdown. I buy these books and give them to people at Christmas, and hooked them, too. It makes me laugh OUT LOUD. I liked Ordinary Bill before Wallace (my husband’s name is Bill). I will follow as long as you choose to pursue this. I’ll support anything I can to make this successful for you. Keep it up!
Please, please, please put this strip out as a book. A real, arcane, solid, non-digital book. I would buy it/them. GREAT strip. Perfect snowy Sunday afternoon reading.
Thank you, Jan. This was a very fitting end strip. I have enjoyed Stone Soup for so long. It is going to be so strange to not have new ones. Best wishes in your retirement, and have the same happiness you have brought all of us.
Please tell me that another book is due soon … I have all the others, and I will cheerfully buy every other thing you ever put out.
