Just because something is an easy target doesn't mean the attack can't be well done.

I wonder if Onstad has been listening to Wilco (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puSQjcAxbR0)

I like Beef's confident pose and the mock-excitement he shows at the prospect of the family winning the Camaro.

Seeing Ray frown from behind is interesting too.

I know the Boss Man is working on anothe book, so I'm going to let one-offs like this slide.  The peculiarities of vocabulary and attention to detail in the art are still there, it's just not a home run.  The fact that they don't all have to be is something I'm reluctantly okay with.

So long as we don't have to look at this one for a month like last year's Christmas strip, I'm happy.

it took me a while to figure out what Beef was talking about in his quatrain, because I don't watch that show. I got it eventually, because of Cultural Osmosis.

Yes, I just logged on to say that I just now understood who the Flavorous Jester was. I am not too bright.
