"Family Circus" upset me! Wah!
Sean Smith
hunger, illustrated with a picture of "Family Circus"'s own Dolly and Billy
stomping their feet on the ground, where written in big letters (sorry, Kibo,
can't ID the font off-hand) is the word "H U N G E R." Billy looks out in the
direction of the reader and says "Help us stamp out hunger!"
I certainly support the cause, and understand the appeal of using famous Kute
Kids to promote this event. But Dolly and Billy's aggressive posture and
behavior troubles me, especially Dolly, who doesn't even acknowledge our (the
readers') presence, and with her eyebrows slanting intently, seems ready to land
her size 5s directly on the Giant "H"!
Do you think Bil Keane maybe has a lot of bad feelings inside he's not sharing
except through his art?

The "H" isn't all that big. What worries me more is how the artiste
managed to make the Family Circus kids look both fierce and joyful at the
same time. It's a technique I'm not at all comfortable with.

We here at what is affectionately called Casa Del Avocado con Guacamole
got two (2) of these in the mail today. Again, I would like to point out
that the "H" is not that big, but what Dolly is doing to it is simply
shameful. And illegal in most parts of Tennessee.

Hey, a postcard of that arrived here today, too. I noticed that one of
the small, imperceptible objects at the bottom of the picture -- possibly
a can of expired yams -- said "WITH LOVE" in tiny Bil Keane letters.
This immediately led me to yell, "I'M NOT STAMPING ON HIM, I'M LOVING HIM
WITH MY FOOD! DO I HAVETA HAVE ANOTHER M&M? CAN I HAVE MOUNDS?"
but it turned out not to be embarrassing because I was at home and
nobody heard me, I am so glad nobody found out.

I would put a scan of this picture in the Best Of A.R.K 1999 Phase II book
(to be published in January 2004) except I think the postcard already got
thrown out because I assumed that the picture was too stupid to make fun
of on alt.religion.kibology. BOY, DO I FEEL LIKE A SCHMO. I HAVE LEARNED
MY LESSON, I WILL NEVER THINK ABOUT DONATING FOOD AGAIN.

That's Gary Larson. Also I'm sure the person who draws "Sally Forth"
would do the same if they could draw. Have you heard they're trying to
make a "Sally Forth" prime-time cartoon series? TV would be less stupid
if they'd just let Little Billy program the network for a week.

She's called Dolly because she's going to grow up to get implants and
because THE NEXT ITEM IN THE STACK OF MAIL WAS A CATALOG OF DOLLY PARTON WIGS!

Actually, I believe this event is being organized through the Letter Carriers of
America Association or something similar, hence the mail promotion angle. I
guess they didn't want have it run by postal workers because it would either
turn into a bloody tableau of death and destruction or run a day later than
usual.

Really? Will the animated characters' heads be even smaller proportionately to
the rest of their bodies than in the newspaper version? "Sally Forth" --
shoulders that can span the Mystic River, a head the size of a "Pals" vitamin.

I ordered Samantha a birthday present from a girly clothes catalog and
then the company started sending me all these catalogs addressed to "Ms.
Matthew McIrvin" (their direct mail operation is staggering; they honestly
seem to mail out about two brand-new catalogs a week). Then they put me on
the Grand Universal Girly Clothes Mailing List and now every company that
makes girl type clothes sends me catalogs. And THEY DON'T EVEN CARRY MY
SIZE!!!!
Anyway if anyone is really turned on by pictures of extremely willowy
models wearing baggy cardigans, I know where your reading material went.
I liked it better years ago when I got on the Grand Universal Crackpot
Self-Improvement Mailing List and started getting scads of brochures
promoting things like "SECRET WORDS THAT BRING SEXUAL IMMORTALITY."

Yes, in one of my 3 posts in the last 4,000 years to alt.angst, I
managed to work in an ad for ark, which would have been so very effective
considering all of 8 people post to alt.angst, more if you count multiple

Besides, if Kibo were feeling any of those things, I'd personally cheer
him up, IYKWIM, AITYD. Even if he does have a haircut that makes him look

SSC: I have about 80 episodes of "WKRP" on tape. My life is incomplete
until I get a copy of the `pink frog' episode. But, for many years, what
you just said was one of my favorite WKRP quotes ever. Others include:
"Thanks for listening, I'm... Heavy Early. And it is."
"I've always thought of myself as a fairly macho kind of guy."
"It's Venus, in his `Root Soot' by Mansanto!"
I think I just realized how not funny WKRP is.
