Set a timer so you don't forget to take care of daily details while
catching up on an entire new webcomic.......Gah!

Hubby is having health issues again, hopefully to pass in the next
couple days. In the meantime I have to keep a close watch on him, and
since I still hurt from shoveling the other day the most convenient
place to monitor him is from in front of the monitor....

So I've spent the last couple evenings playing catch-up on some old web
comics I used to follow two years ago when I still had a job keeping me
in front of the 'puter all day. Finally got caught up with Wapsi Square,
Girl and her Fed, Girls with Slingshots, Kevin and Kell and The Devil's
Panties.

Having run through the ones I really enjoyed I remembered a recent
thread about other folks favorites which I had saved for later
investigation.....

*&&^%$ you Clothahump! I now have aching ribs on top of all my other
aches, and I'm only half way through the archive for Two Lumps
ROTFLMAO!!!! ;-)

BOYC?? These two remind me of my boyz!

Devils Panties has only a general story line, though I did find it more
fun reading from the beginning it isn't vital. Girls with Slingshots has
a more definite story line, so I recommend also reading from the
beginning. Fun.
Wapsi Square - whoof - gotta do it from the beginning or you'll be
totally lost, but oh boy is it worth it!

I did read Devils Panties from the beginning, and loved the
storyline ... but then it petered out and seemed to lose the story;
something like more than half the time it was "story-less", or was a
custom playing card, or was an announcement of the next convention
Jennie would appear at.

So I stopped about a year ago. I'll take another look, but has it
gotten "story-er"?

It still comes and goes. I find it entertaining enough the lack of
continuity doesn't bother me ;-)
