What Kind of World Is It Without Farside With Your Coffee?

How long has it been since Gary Larson stopped the daily cartoon?
I remember sitting in Rick's Cafe (This breakfast-lunch dive has been transformed several times since Eddie Burns ran it. Most recently into the De Fuinak Hotel an upscale Bed and Breakfast. This seems a little ironic to those of us who ate breakfast & lunch at Rick's.) Sitting in Rick's in De Funiak Springs every weekday morning before sales calls thumbing through the day's copy of the Playground Daily News (Now The Northwest Florida Daily News) and finding that special, if not twisted, take on the world I inhabited. Larson's "take" was always on the mark in a world that too often seemed to take everything a wee bit "too" seriously.

But there is hope for those who can't get through without an occasional dose of Farside The medicine is a two volume 1,272-page "Complete Farside" recently published. With over 4,300 single-panel comics Its hefty $125.00 (Only $91.00 at Amazon) price tag is really cheap for those who just can't get enough. Larson refers to the books as "an eighteen pound hernia giver." When your mother asks you what you want for your birthday chant 0740721135 the tome's ISBN number - the mark of the beast, momma?
