Happy Birthday Lynda!

As an apology for thinking she was turning 21 instead of 22 today I offer her this video of a small kid leading a large crowd in rousing cheers as my mea culpa and birthday gift. Lets all pretend they are cheering for Lynda's birthday! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7lJpFwAcCs]

Funny: Al Jaffee's Tall Tales

Hahaha!

This is an example of the sort of hilarious "sight-gags" that Al Jaffee drew for the Herald Tribune from 1957 to 1963.

Jaffee conceived of Tall Tales while in desperate economic straits, and hit upon a winning formula for breaking into the lucrative comics syndicate game: rather than drawing a traditional horizontal strip that would compete with the existing material, he opted for a seven-inch-tall vertical strip, which gave editors a lot more flexibility as to where in the paper the strip would run.

Jaffee's comics have now been collected into a book. I want.
