Sunday Funnies

This week's look back at highlights from editorial cartoonists focuses on sports. Last weekend, the unexpected happened in the world of golf. Meanwhile in the world of football two quarterbacks made anticipated comebacks. It remains to be seen if their resurrections will be viewed as the second-coming... or, I guess in one instance the third...

The cartoonists always have SOMETHING. I shook my head in seeing Favre in a walker though.
He's such a great guy, but I don't think he should be allowed to go in and out of a contract by retiring and then coming back.

I am very upset with football right now. Favre is an egomaniac, but I'm more upset about Vick being allowed back into the NFL and even more upset that the Eagles signed him.

I am now a FORMER Eagles fan.

subtorp77: I know. Is this pro football or a soap opera?

dizzblnd: I think the cartoons are spot on the money, especially the ones with the walker. Funny stuff.

John: It sure sets a precedent, the Vick case. Who you pulling for now?

Favre, needs to stay in the nursing home. Of course if teams are willing to pay him, who can blame him. I think every time Vick shows his face a tape should play next to him showing dogs fighting for their life. Just as a reminder of who he is.

I feel sorry for Favre. Football is all he knows, but cha know it's gotta be killin' him to be out there. The older we are, the more it hurts when we fall...

I remember when he tried sports announcing. He told them right then and there that he hated it and that he wouldn't be back.

At least most of us have more than one thing we're good at.

Hey, come on, Favre did really well in his debut as a Viking. He completed one pass out of four for four yards. I don't think many senior citizens can do that?
Unless they swam in that swimming pool from the movie Cocoon.

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav...
