I'm saving the paper for my mom while she's on vacation and mainly what she cares about is the comic Funky Winkerbean. Things HAPPEN in this strip. It's not as soap-opera-esque as some, but serious issues are addressed.
For instance, Lisa Moore is dying of cancer. Any day now, she will say her good-byes and we will mourn. She's found the son she put up for adoption. She's gone to Congress to plead for more funding to fight cancer. She's had closure.
Sadly, I feel like there are Congress members who actually connect more to a fictional cartoon character than to real, live victims of this terrible disease.
Movie of the Day: My Life. So sad.
