Since I got the Far Side Computer Calendar, I have seen Far Sides
I've never seen before! My favorite of this set is the Venus Kid Trap
(A palm-tree-like plant festooned with tire swings.)

Okay; in no particular order, my Top 5 Far Sides:
1. "CAT FUD"
2. "C'mon, Fifi!...Faster, Fifi!"
3. The one about the family of howler monkeys moving in next door. It's
from "Unnatural Selections."
4. "Boy, this is the laaaaaaast slice of beef, and I'm soooooooo full...
guess I'll finish it off, though." The dog's expression is
priceless.
5. The one with the dogs trying to use a shotgun to blast a cat. "He's
still there!...Hey! Ow! You idiots!..."

I don't know about favorite, but one that is up there (and *really*
should be turned in to a birthday card -- I haven't seen it *yet*) is
the one where we have a lot of animals around a bear in a state
trooper's hat. The bear's eyes are either covered or closed, and the
animals are covering their mouths, trying very hard to keep from
laughing. In front of the bear is a cake with lit candles which look
like trees. And above it all, in the background, is the sign which
reads...
"Happy Birthday, Smokey"
When I saw this, I lost all composure. And I have never seen it as a
birthday card (though I believe it is in one of the books).

My roommate's fave from last year's day calendar:
Two young deer in the woods, one with a plaque-thing around his neck, sim-
ilar to the ones used to mount deer heads.
The other deer to the one with the plaque:
Alright, now stay still! Here comes Mom!

Lupislipadipaphobia: The fear of being chased by a timber wolf around a kitchen
table, on a newly waxed floor, while wearing sox.
(accompanied by a picture of a young kid going through just this horrible experience)
Another favorite:
Picture: elephant in a trench coat hiding in the shadows under a stairwell and looking
rather menacing. In front of him is a man preparing to enter his apartment.
He has just noticed the elephant and appears startled.
Caption: "Remember me Mr. <name forgotten>? Kenya. 1963. If your going to shoot
at an elephant you better be prepared to finish the job."

And who can forget the one with the two dogs playing that famous
game:
TEATHERCAT!
(Strange thing though, people actually objected to that cartoon ;-)
Anders Lund
My top three are
1. Tarzan was swinging on the vines going through various ways to introduce
himself to Jane, even with the practicing, it came out Me Tarzan, You Jane..
2. As they are carrying away a Medival guard with arrows in his butt, his reply
is 'So I said someone should moon these saxon Dogs'
3. Two spiders, one with a bag on his head... 'Hey Bob did i scare you or what?'
(As Bob's spinnerette has left a pile of webbing behind him.

it's an operating room, with all the surgeons surrouding the patient,

Lots of crudely lettered signs saying "CAT FUD" and pointing into the open
door of a clothes dryer. The cat is looking curiously at the signs, and the
dog is hiding around a corner watching and thinking, "Oh please, oh please."

Midway through the meal, lightning flashes through the kitchen
window. In the shadows, a chicken reveals himself, pulling off
his dog costume, saying to the startled family, "NO, I'm NOT
your little dog Fifi! I'm the chicken you THOUGHT you fixed for
dinner! Would you like to know where you little Fifi is?
Ha ha ha ha ha!..."
caption: *Dinner on Elm Street*
The whole office died laughing. For some reason, we could just
hear the chicken speaking those last words with a sarcastic
french accent.

Shot of a commercial kitchen, floor covered with blood and ground

there with something rather large in its stomach, and right next
to it is Garfield's food dish. The snake has a broad grin on its

Another favorite of mine is the one where the human mother is
walking back to the farmhouse carying a basket of eggs, and the
chicken is walking from the farmhouse back to the barn (or henhouse
or whatever) carying the human baby. Cracks me up every time I

Back before the Far Side, I liked Wilson, and he still has occasional
good cartoons. I like one of his showing two fabulously wealthy men
playing pool, and just as one is about to hit his shot, a hugh meteor
crashes right into the middle of the table. The second man says "Damn bad
luck, Fitzhugh". Many of the Far Side ideas have some sort of progenitor
in Gahan Wilson's works, I believe.
But not all of GW efforts are terrifically funny. Some of them are only
slighly ironic, and many are highly regional (NYC area), so that some
of us can't appreciate some of the humor. When he's good, though, he's
good.
Has he done anything new recently? I've been so hung up on C&H that
I honestly hadn't noticed any new GW books around.

I'll take a stab at it... Larson's reasoning is that the phrase

This one reminds me of my absolute favorite. The box is divided into 4
sections in each section a mother pig is trying to wake up her son for
school. until in the last section she comes to his bed takes off his
covers and sees that he has an apple in his mouth (like he's being
roasted) The mother screams. The caption at the bottom reads piglet

'Unbeknownst to most historians, Einstein started down the road of
professional basketball before and ankle injury diverted him into
science' with this really great cartoon od Einstein in a basketball
match dazzling all and sundry.
Number two is the one where this ( obviously a recent shipwreck victim)
is standing in the sea right in front a one of those desert islands. On
the island is this old castaway and his ventrilloquists dummy. The
speech bubbles from the old castaway and the dummy go:
Castaway: Hey! Hi! I'm Bob and this is my Pal Gus! Say hello Gus!
Gus: Watch out for Bob mister, he'll eat you first chance he
gets!
C: Ha ha, don't mind him, he's just kidding!
G: He ate that German guy last year!
C: SHUT UP GUS! So whats your name friend?

A bunch of bears are attending a funeral, with the open casket on display.

Most recent addition: pictures of different locomotives on the side of

- the female animal in most panels has on the same sort of glasses that
the human females wear in Larson's cartoons

I agree.
As for favorites, one that really cracked me up showed a couple of
large female insects sitting in a living room. One is knitting (baby
clothes, presumably) and saying, "Well, of course Ed wants a male, and
I'd like a little female, but really, as long as it has six legs and
four eyes we'll be happy". That reminds me of another one -- one
female praying mantis confronting another at her door, declaring
indignantly, "No, I haven't seen him, and besides, Marge, surely you
know I would only devour my *own* husband!" (both roughly
paraphrased).
Also, amoebas showing home movies: "Wait a minute, that's not cousin
Bill! Who is that? Criminey, I think it's just an air bubble!"
For some reason I never thought the CAT FUD one was that funny.
Too obvious or something.

I don't think so. One of my favorites is "Carmen Miranda's family reunion,"
and that was just a few days after his vacation.
But as for my FAVORITE panel... Well, Mr. Larson himself apparently thought it
was so tasteless that he never went further than a rough sketch in his sketch
book. However, it does appear on page 106 in _The PreHistory of the Far Side_.
The description has been rot13'd to protect sensitive minds.

That's clear. It was his choice of the objects to portray as
"non-vital organs" that I think really confused us ... a sandwich, a
hat, a trombone, and so on. I, at least, was looking for some pattern
among the objects as the _real_ joke, whereas the concept of the
"non-vital organ" was simply a convenient vehicle. As usual, I'm
thinking straight past the joke ... <grin>

I am at Rugers U. (working that is, not as a student :-) I came

fell on top of her (well, it's a visual thing and you have to be familiar

are grazing. Third frame: cows are standing around chatting again with

Sounds like the "Cow Tools" story. It's in the Pre-History of the Far
Side Book. Kind of long, and I don't remember the details, but it goes
along the same lines....

There's always the possibility that this was a direct rip-off (consciously
or not) from a very similar Kliban cartoon entitled "Some of the lesser-known
organs of the body", which can be found in his collection "A Couple of Guys
Fooling Around with the Moon".
Anyone else familiar with Kliban? "St. Roscoe preaching to the toilets"?
"Sam lived by an ocean, which proved to be inaccessible"? "Itzhak Diddley"?

Speaking of amoebas, how about "Amoeba porn flicks" showing amoebas with
small black rectangles over them.
Other favorites:
A snake is sitting on a chair in its living room and swallowing a very
large pig, and the phone rings, The snake thinks "Damn". Also, the
picture on the wall behind the snake shows a pile of eggs with a baby
snake popping out of one.
Or how about "At The Far Side's spy center" showing 2 humans, a cow and
a duck watching various monitors showing different comic strips. In one
of them, Opus is saying "Is that a camera lens?"
One last strip: "God at his computer" showing God watching on his
monitor a man walking down the street with a piano suspended by a rope
above his head. God is about to press the "Smite" key.
Which reminds me of a child God in a kitchen with smoke and feathers
everywhere. The caption reads "God as a child tries to make a chicken"
I have all of these and more posted above my PC at home.
Thats enough for now.

It's interesting how we perceive these cartoons differently. The things
that make me laugh in CAT FUD are the spelling (or more so, the actual
pronunciation of "FUD"), the anticiplation of the dog, and the cat's
very catlike attitude.
I think CAT FUD is very similar to "Beware of Doug" (thanks for the
reminder Stephanie) - my second fav.
