So Drew Litton has a new sports cartoon in the Chicago Tribune.
http://www.drewlitton.com/football/2009/11/04/flu-aint-the-only-thing-going-around/
The reports weren't clear if the new feature was titled
"The Main Event" or had no title at all.
When I saw the above at Drew's website I thought
"Yeah, it's titled 'The Main Event'."
But everytime I go to the ChiTrib site it has something different
as The Main Event: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/smack/
So can any Chicago area racsters tell me if the new
Drew Litton feature has a regular title?
I feel I can add it to my list of newspaper comics if it has
a real title (like his "Win Lose or Drew"), but not if it is
just part of a rotating feature with no singular name.

For the Washington DC guys -
Was October 24, 2009 the last appearance (for the time being)
of Richard Thompson's "Richard's Poor Almanack"?
August 22 seems to the last update to the WashPost page:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/artsandliving/comics/almanack/082209.html

Richard Thompson (or someone impersonating him) made an appearance in
the "Comics Curmudgeon" forums to explain the absence of Richard'
Poor:

I think that may be where I first heard of the
comic going on hiatus. I'd just like to get some
confirmation about that and the last date it appeared.
