Funday Sunnies

by Hal Bent

First off, happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there--as a fellow Dad you have my sympathies admiration for all the hard work we do.  It's not an easy job, but we do it and we do it well (I hope!). My Dad is not one to sit around and read the comics and engage in frivolity, but he did grow up in the post-Depression/pre-World War II era where the main entertainment venues were radio, newspaper comics, and sneaking into the movies.  Terry and the Pirates, Lil Orphan Annie, Gasoline Alley, and Smokey Stover were present in my house in collected classic volumes for me to read and re-read as a child.  My Dad is not going to read this (doesn't own or want to own a computer) but he was a huge influence in my life, is a wonderful persona and friend to this day, and has made me the person I am now.  Happy Father's Day.


Adam@Home by Brian Basset:

Ugh. Again we are subjected to Adam's bare stomach and his swim trunks pulled up to his belly button and over his huge gut. He celebrates Fathers Day by putting his ignorance on display and alienating his young daughter, who will forever be scarred by this incident and it will negatively affect her relationships with all her future boyfriends.  Way to go, Adam. 


The Knight Life by Keith Knight:

Hello, Mr. Knight. I see you watched game one of the NHL Stanley Cup Finals and suffered through the Boston Bruins' horrific triple-overtime loss. At least our local boys representing Boston bounced back from those two fluke goals and won in (thank God only one) overtime in game two.  


Brevity by Dan Thompson:

Holy crap. This comic strip is actually...funny!

Don't worry, Ludwig. My cats imagine the same thing.
