Paulette (currently our favorite listener) sent in this story,
At one time I was an avid collector of comics. I even clipped my favourites from the newspaper, scotch taped them on to construction paper and stored them in binders (which I still have). At some point I stopped reading the comics page. I think Dilbert “jumped the shark” when Scott Adams quit his day job, although every once in a while one of his strips still makes me chuckle.
I have a small collection of more obscure stuff. A crowd favourite is a little book of one panel cartoons called “Unpleasant Ways to Die” that might amuse you. Sadly, most of my books are packed away in boxes while I wait for the contractor to finish the built-ins in my apartment. It’s been a fourteen month project so far. I’ve grown accustomed to being perpetually annoyed.
And she sent these pictures,
