Thought I'd revive an oldie since I was walking around in a book store one day.
I still like "Edgar finds his purpose" one. :laugh:

I love this one: Two fisherman are out on a lake. Nuclear blast takes place. One fisherman says to the other, "I’ll tell you what this means, Norm — no size restrictions and screw the limit."

My favorite shows a view from inside of a cockpit looking out. The captain saying to the FO "what's a mountain goat doing way up hear". Picture shows a goat in the middle of clouds. Cracks me up everytime.

The rooster stared back at me, his power and confidence almost overwhelming. Down below, a female paused warily at the coop's entrance. I kept the camera running. They were beautiful, these "Chickens in the Mist."

I too miss the Far Side and especially the "Boneless Chicken Farm". When I first saw it I remember I laughed so hard - I will only eat boneless chickens!! *lol* :cool:

This is probably my favorite one of all. A guy I worked with had it pinned to the outside of his cubicle and to this day I still laugh when I think about it.
It shows how timeless some of his comics can be, don't know when the comic first appeared, but the post I'm quoting is 11 years old.

Leona Helmsley meets The Three Stooges - showing Moe Larry and Curly shown doing some work in her house and making a complete mess of things. I had that cut out and hanging on my refrigerator for years.

It's a shame these guys get tired of doing these strips. I also miss Calvin and Hobbes.
I think we all miss those strips, but I commend Larson and Watterson for knowing when to quit. Charles Schulz kept churning out Peanuts long after it had sunk into vapidity.

Excellent comment Robert. Certain things just need to come to an end, rather than getting worse and fading away slowly as the fans lose interest and the authors put out lower quality material.
