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

Est. 1985

Extra, Extra!

High and Inside

By Jimmy Johnson

This old A&J Sunday is from 1992, when Gene was short and the hair was long. OK, so it’s not baseball season, but speaking of sports: I know there was a lot of groaning and eye-rolling Sunday afternoon when the New England Patriots executed one of their patented fourth-quarter comebacks to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars. Really, you could not call it a “comeback.” When the AFC divisional playoff game entered the final 15 minutes with the Patriots trailing “only” by 10 points, everyone—and I mean everyone—knew what was coming. And sure enough, it came. The groaning and eye-rolling, of course, come from outside New England and from the fact the Patriots have been in, like, every Super Bowl there ever was. I believe that’s a record. However, now that they’re there again, I must say I’m rooting for them. Boston and New England have been very, very good to this ol’ southern-born cartoonist over the years, and I can’t help but be happy for them. Now, the University of Alabama is a different matter.

    As a lifelong Patriots Fan I remember the days when the Patriots weren’t any good… so I’m definitely enjoying this run of success….

    My Patriots memory goes back to Jim Plunkett, so I know it was not always this good. But to have an entire generation of Tom Brady and winning is pretty sweet. I will enjoy it while it lasts!

    I still do a fair amount of printing, and like Morphy, I have found the HP products (at least the Laser Jets) long lasting and reliable, although more expensive at the time of purchase. I’ve had 2 HP printers over the last 25 years. The most recent one is a color printer. The toner replacements are expensive, but last a long time. I like the crisp output of the LaserJet and the fact that unlike Ink Jet output, it does not run when it gets wet.

    The problem is that the printer is so long lasting (I’ve had my current printer for over 10 years model 2605dn). It has now got to the point that every Windows upgrade means my printer will no longer interface with the computer. So far I’ve been able to find drivers to “fix” the problem, but the last upgrade left me with using only a generic HP driver which I then have to modify with settings to get it to do what I want (such as print in color, duplex, print on cardstock or other materials). I used to be able to get drivers specific to my model which did not require modification to work. Even with the settings, I sometimes get an error message on my screen saying that it “can’t communicate with the printer” even when it is merrily in the process of printing my project. I can see that at some time I’ll have a nice printer that won’t work with my system.

    For that reason, I think I will be looking for a different brand of printer when I have to get a new one. Thank you Windows10.
