Zippy

I have been reading Bill Griffith’s “Zippy” cartoon forever. In fact, when the Washington Post dropped the strip in 1988, I cancelled my subscription in protest (so I didn’t need to do it again after Bezos took over). I am amazed and grateful that Bill Griffith puts out a new and wonderful strip EVERY DAY!

Bored and impatient when I couldn’t practise this morning because Mar was still asleep, I finally took the plunge and said, wow (zow!) I could own one of these, so I ordered a print.

Here is the strip I ordered:

I think Griffith is about my age, and recently lost his wife, so mortality is up with us.
