I didn't mind Anthony much when they were younger, but really, my entire reaction to the current setup is, bleah, why on earth would Liz want anything to do with a man with such demonstrably excrable judgement?
And, y'know, being an at-home mother who's married to a man I've known since I was 17, that part doesn't inherently bug me, but...it's got to be the *right man you've known since you were 17.... Say, someone who'd support you in your career goals, for instance.
Posted by: simbo on March PM Lulu, that sounds right, but since it's been a few years for me too, I'll wait for someone who actually understands it to explain why.
But as much as I have come to loathe her, I really don't think she will carry on beyond June 3rd, by which point of supers will hahve come Barack's way and a bunch of Hillary's remaining supers will have switched to Obama.
Oh my goodness--HEAR HEAR, SHAENON. Nobody has put it as succinctly as you just have. Thanks for taking the time to sit down and put it all into words

I will also note that, being a newspaper strip that's been around for 30 years, the comic's most crucial audience are those who sympathize with John and Elly, being baby boomers themselves. Many of them are probably suffering from empty-nest syndrome themselves, and so the happy ending that Lynn is shooting for is one from John and Elly's point of view, namely one in which their children don't ever permanently leave the nest.
It's perhaps understandable that male cartoonists might be inclined to have Hat Babe go for Geek as probably a number of male cartoonists see themselves in the Geek Camp. And that is appealing to us who are, uhh, kinda geeky ourselves (although many of us would rather be with a girl geek, but oh well...).
Is it possible, really, that ultimately Liz will decide to go where she really was the most needed and the most fulfilled and where she had chance at an exciting relationship? Or is that as likely as the strip ending with a massive murder-sucide?
The cuts reduce the number of male athletes by the number of female athletes by seven. If the cuts hold up, the school should have male athletes and female athletes, meaning that 51.

I think they are Canadians, and they don't seem underprivileged to me.
