From the mouths of babes

You may know how I love the comics. Is it “truth in humor” or “innocence”? Today’s Family Circus (thank you, Bil and Jeff Keane) had the kids playing a board game. Dolly pipes up, “This game isn’t as much fun when we hafta follow all the rules.”

Right on, sweetheart. You’re learning early. Another anarchist is… growing up (altho the poor child hasn’t aged ins 50 years). When/if she does grow up, she can qualify for a copy of my very helpful book for writers: The Anarchist’s Guide to Grammar. Then she can write her own cartoons — her way!
