Let me be the first to go on record saying it: the A&J cartoons running in newspapers and on GoComics this week are repeats. I was under the weather recently and took some extra time to recuperate. However, I did arise from my germ-besotted recliner to choose a week of my favorites from the winter of 2010 and remaster them. And, yes, I am feeling much better now. Thank you for asking.

Today’s “e-e-e-e-ew” comic: We had no cats for years, but Elaine got over this sort of response early on, or maybe had lost it in HS, when she had a cat. In fact, she prepared some of BSCVC’s better specimens. BSU has named its Vert. Mus. after me, not for free.

Wonder if common response may have been “Oh, haystack!” though.
“Oh, haystack!” I shall have to remember that!
Hey Jimmy – my network is saying your security certificate expired yesterday so this is an unsafe site. I’m risking it anyway! 🙂
my internet connection says that too…. cannot get on with Firefox but Opera did
Similar here. Chrome let me in yesterday but not today. Firefox let me in today after I pleaded, begged and threatened. Microsoft probably doesn’t care but my work IT folks have Explorer/Edge blocked at our firewall so it can’t see out at all.
It’s a two-fold problem. The site is set to require HTTPS, but the certificate error prevents valid HTTPS sessions.
For anyone having one of those electronic devices which take orders to do something or give information: Ask a question of the type “Where am I not?” or “Where am I not located now?” . Clearly, there an infinity of possible answers. Will the device choose one or beg off?

The response: “I’m not going there”
Jimmy, Could you address this problem….nobody can get onto the website

This is with I get (with the latest edition of Firefox) also. Chrome lets me in but flags the site as “not secure.”
And now FF is also happy.
Finally my workplace’s firewall is happy with all the certificates and protocols!
