John Hambrock is a fellow cartoonist who creates The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee. I checked in on John’s site this morning, and he was doing some bragging in his blog. His fine comic strip launched in November of 2006, which led John to calculate that he has drawn over 3,000 daily and Sunday strips that, if laid end to end, would equal the height of three Sears Towers stacked on top of one another (about 4,500 ft.). Well, John’s calculations led me to some of my own. I have drawn over 10,700 A&J strips since 1985, not accounting for leap years, which if laid end to end would extend for 2.5 miles and closely resemble my office floor. Hey, Junior! Come back in a few years, and we’ll talk some more! I must say, I do admire the way he has copies of all his strips arranged in ring binders. And if you read John’s bio, you’ll learn he spent years developing his characters before Brilliant Mind was launched by King Features Syndicate. As evidenced by the above cartoon from the first month of A&J, it wouldn’t have hurt if I’d done a little of that.

I’m not sure exactly why but this web site is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.
Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
Thank you so much for the great article, it was fluent and to the point. Cheers.

I have read so many posts on the topic of the blogger lovers however this post is really a pleasant piece of writing, keep it up.
I manage a vape store directory site and we have had a listing from a vape store in the United States that additionally sells CBD items. A Month afterwards, PayPal has contacted use to say that our account has been restricted and have asked us to take away PayPal as a payment method from our vape store directory. We do not offer CBD products like CBD oil. We solely offer advertising and marketing solutions to CBD companies. I have taken a look at Holland & Barrett– the UK’s Reputable Health Retail store and if you take a close look, you will witness that they promote a fairly extensive range of CBD products, particularly CBD oil and they also happen to take PayPal as a payment method. It emerges that PayPal is administering double standards to many different companies. Because of this restriction, I can no longer accept PayPal on my CBD-related website. This has limited my payment options and currently, I am greatly reliant on Cryptocurrency payments and straightforward bank transfers. I have talked with a solicitor from a Magic Circle law firm in The city of london and they stated that what PayPal is undertaking is totally against the law and inequitable as it should be applying a consistent benchmark to all companies. I am still to consult a different legal representative from a US law office in London to see what PayPal’s legal position is in the USA. In the meantime, I would be highly appreciative if anyone here at targetdomain could offer me with alternative payment processors/merchants that deal with CBD firms.
