Usually, Theo is part of delivering these rotten jokes, so it seemed to me that he could be the not-so-innocent bystander for this one. I’m glad to say that the strip has not attracted any creepy stalkers, nor even not-creepy[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
For once, I’m not responsible for this happy outrage of a pun. It was foisted upon… er, given to me, most graciously, by (not the Supreme Court Chief Justice) John Roberts, who’s been waiting a good number of years to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As I post this, I’ve just returned from a side-quest to Wegmans Grocery (they da best!), and the shuffle-play of my MP3 popped out Foreigner’s “Cold as Ice” (1977). On my movie-viewing list is Michael Caine in Blue Ice (1992),[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The film Soylent Green has it’s 50th anniversary this year (although the film is set in 2022, so it’s right about on schedule), so Caedmon’s retort seemed reasonably timely. I confess to being envious of Theo for being able to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Collecting Cockney rhyming slang and British colloquialisms — especially from the Dickensian era — is a favorite pastime of mine. This observation came to me during the earliest days of the strip’s development, around 2008, and the new year seemed[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The best way to end this epic story arc is to make a callback to Strip #127, where Theo gets to explain why Cora’s first meeting with him was so warm. With this cuddly scene, the introduction of Cora to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Looks like Theo isn’t the only one who can’t get to sleep tonight. Speaking for myself, those restless nights of non-stop brain-racing thoughts are best soothed by having a loved one to hold on to, talk with, calm down with.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
