Blondie and Dagwood
I’ve always enjoyed reading the comic strip Blondie. There is always a little game I liket to play everytime when reading the strip, finding that little dog. He’s usually doing something cute in the background and makes me smile.
The comic strip is celebrating its 75th anniversary, and a lot of other comic strip creators are paying their respects by drawing their characters into the Bumstead’s anniversary party. For the past month or so, the strip has been centering around Blondie and Dagwood making prepartions for their anniversary party. You can read more about this anniversary and the other comic strips paying their respects here:

The Blondie comic strip isn’t listed on the comics link provided on this blog, so you actually have to go to www.blondie.com to read everyday’s strip. A little inconvienent, but worth is.
Sunday marked the first day of other characters appearing in the comic strip, so here are the two latest strips. I know they are probably too small to read, but if click on the pic a larger version in which you can actually read will appear.
Dorm Life
Yesterday wifeGeeding and I help sisterGeeding move into her dorm. She is a freshman at UNT. As we entered her room I met her two roommates, that’s right, two roommates. One looked just like Jessica Alba and the other looked like Natalie Portman- then I woke up.
But we did move her in her dorm yesterday and she does have two roommates. It’s going to be a very diverse room, one Asian, African Amercian, and one Caucasian. It was kinda neat walking into the dorm and breathing in that old dorm smell which brought back a lot of memories. In her room, each student has a loft bed, desk, chair, bookshelf, and set of drawers or mini-dresser. There is also a three cushion couch in the doom. Here’s hoping sisterGeeding gets use to the community bathroom.
