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

Extra, Extra!

Brawn Over Brains

By Jimmy Johnson


Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox and to all my friends in New England! After having gone a gazillion years without a World Series championship, having a lot of fun along the way with that “Curse of the Bambino” stuff, the BoSox have won four since 2004. By the way, it has been a hundred years this year since the above-mentioned drought began. Before 2004, Boston last won the World Series in 1918. OK, I rounded it up to a gazillion. And your Pats eked out a win on Monday Night Football last night. And they almost scored the first one-point safety in NFL history. No, I didn’t know there was such a thing, either.

    Actually, I got the best of both worlds, and held my tongue appropriately. Scrumptious chili supper at friends’ home, while friends tended to the t-o-trs. Four were BSU frosh girl biology majors [1 local, from their neighborhood], so they got to meet an old prof who retired before they were born. Good fun.

    Peace,
