Get Fuzzy

My favorite thing each day to bring a smile to my brain is to read "Get Fuzzy". Well, whenever Darby Conley, the cartoonist, isn't being politcal. The last place I want to think about political issues is the Funny Pages. What's fun about that? For instance the guy wears a Green Peace T-shirt just a few weeks back. Dude, give me a break!

Anyway, if you haven't read "Get Fuzzy" it's about a one-fanged Siamese cat(Bucky Katt) who things he rules the earth, and I suppose he does in his cartoon world, and a dog (Satchel) who doesn't quite understand what's going on around him but is very lovable and tries with all his naive doggie might to be helpful and to mediate between Rob and Bucky.

Their "owner" (Rob Wilco)is able to converse with them through verbal discourse. The cat, Bucky, insults the owner and treats him with distain. Satchel, on the other hand, is a goofy guy who just wants to eat and be happy. Satchel and Bucky can also both read and write. There is an aray of other charaters although those three are the main ones.

Rob is supposed to be an executive but I think he is more like a manager level. He just doesn't seem like executive material to me. I mean he talks to animals after all!

Moving on.

I can't help but compare the cat to myself. A little bit angry and feeling like he isn't getting a fair shake and somehow always in trouble. Ok, it's true sometimes I feel a little like that myself but it is usually in certain situations when someone won't *LISTEN* to me.
