A pithy comic strip about life, love, lust and puthy cats.

And we’re back

By Jimmy Johnson

How does that song go, “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.” Well, it’s back! It’s not exactly paradise, but it’s no longer a digital parking lot, either. I’m not sure exactly what happened, but a very nice young man named Frank, with EarthLink, fixed everything for me. I couldn’t quite place his accent though: perhaps South Carolina tidewater. It seems I’ve been gone forever, first with a lot of non-cartooning stuff that required my attention and then the big technical blow-out, but it’s good to be back. Frank did tell me I need to update my version of WordPress. Can’t wait for that.

    Did I hear, or read, of heavy snow today in Wisconsin, and Minnesota? Any stories from the Villagers?

    To Trucker Ron, I loved your story of getting the telescope and the other great stuff. So you have a blog about all that? I have been missing the boat! I hope you get it back so I can follow it.
