Beautiful. Candorville is always brightest when the real world needs the light.

Shouldn't she be telling her single son about every "nice" single woman she has met in the last 60-90 days--especially those related to her friends?

His grandson is a world-class cartoonist because he is able to convey great universal truths in small moments.

My theory of this is that the in-person Darrin Bell experience is so much more fun and enriching than what can be fully conveyed in a strip that the people who know Darrin don't buy the book because they know it pale in comparison to talking with him. It's kind of like how the people who read the book usually don't like the movie because so much is lost when the intricate character development and careful plot development is compressed into a movie.

I got my copy yesterday. The book looks great and I'm looking forward to revisiting those strips.

A great strip. This works as so many levels.

I feel pretty safe guessing that when Bell decides to give parenting tips through Candorville he will not be using C-Dog as the vehicle.

I don't know about "unrelated" degrees (everything is related). However, students should always be ready for "Plan B." Many of my most successful students are doing something they never thought of.

The dollar amount is irrelevant if the dollar amount is essentially zero. Maybe the whole argument is irrelevant, but you brought it up.

Obama did not create a strategy to hold back and the birthers didn't need to be "baited." Personally, I think he made a political mistake by releasing the long form. The longer the birthers continued to embarrass the Republicans the better for the Democrats.

There are several reasons why people might cling to irrational beliefs about Obama. Maybe some of them are not racial. Some are hyper-partisans. Some have head injuries. However, none of these explanations reflect well on the radical birthers.
At the same time, you can not dismiss the fact that the attempt to cast the President as "the other" (as Darrin puts it) is usually strongest in the areas that resisted desegregation and other parts of the civil rights movement.
