Get a Life!
We postpone our promissed tie-in from yesterday(only until Monday, honest!) to discuss the huge going ons with the comic strip Garfield. After 28 years of utter loserdom not seen since the likes of Mr. Bill (which to this day causes the EIC great mental anguish and nightmares), Garfield's owner, Jon Arbuckle, finally achieves happiness (check the archives for this date if you are looking at it post 7/28). Speculation in the net is rampant: is creator Jim Davis retconning? Putting the storyline in line with the movies? Retiring? Setting up a Dallas-like "It was all a dream" route?
We report this confident that Monz likes Garfield and would approve of us writing about the strip on his blog, just as we are confident that Monz enjoyed his yummy lunch. Wait, the phone's ringing! "Why do I do this to myself?" Oh-oh. "Music at the library -- Obie's stand -- I have now tried everything the stand offers by today having the sausage with mustard and onions. It is easily the greasiest thing ever...it was really hot, burned my lip, got slimy mustard on everything and now I feel like I am going to have a heart attack." Um...dude, do you like Garfield? "Intellectually no, but I have a sentimental attachment to the old boy."
And how do you spell relief?
