Annie by Jay Maeder and Alan Kupperberg for May 26, 2010

Hello Good People :-))

Wonder what happened to the dead body??

I’m sure gonna miss this comic. :-((

Good morning everyone!

G’Morning, LS, Marg, MLady, VBill, LordD, WW, S Slim and everyone.

Where is Junior. I knew what Sandy was goin to do but…..Now what????

The Body!!!! Hello both good, bad, and indifferent people!

lol@Marg.

I hope I’m one of the good ones, margueritem!

Enough for today. I’ll recharge and be back revitalized tomorrow, guys! Good night all!

Good Morning to one and all. And yes I have to agree with Leakysqueaky, I will miss this comic when it is gone.

Of course you’re one of the good ones, Bill!

LoneWolf said, last night:

Some nights I can’t keep up with y’all, and some of you gots 25-30 years on me.

LW, I have two suggestions First, keep a bit of child in your heart. Don’t lose the wonder and curiosity about the world around you. Be aware of it.

Second, and I speak from my own experience, spend time with younger people. From ‘98 til ‘06 most of the people I hung out with were in their 20s and 30s. They accepted me, and I thrived on their energy.

I will be back among them this September, and I am so looking forward tp it!!!

Thank you, Shirttail Slim. Funny you should mention those two suggestions. I practice both of those almost to the letter! And I agree with you wholeheartedly, sir.

Marg: I hope I am close to one of the good ones. :^) And I never stop trying to get better. Just a little duct tape on the ol’ pie hole helps!

GN, VBill!

Remember, Friday is payday.

Turn in your hours to me ASAP so I can get your checks to you!!

Here’s another one for you outdoor lovers. “A Place I Go”.

There’s a place I go when I feel that need to be off somewhere alome. A place where though I hold no title, in my heart is my very own. There’s a spot off the road and over a ridge, a secret hidden dell Where the good clean air and nature’s aromas cast a quiet peaceful spell. There a trickle of water that whispers and gurgles it’s way down a gravely bed, With trees all about and a grand old oak with massive arms outspred There’s a carpet of moss that’s green and soft along that little stream Where one might lie and rest, maybe conjure up a pleasant dream. Yes there’s a place I go when I fwwl that need to be somewhere alone,And I’m not showing it to anyone ‘cause I need it for my very own.

Very introspective Slim.

I do like the sound of the place you go to, SS.

Margueritem. I don’t know for sure if I’m one of the good ones, or one of the bad ones. But I most certainly not am one of the indifferent ones.

I don’t care, I still won’t tell you where it is!

I don’t expect very many, if any, affirmatives on this but, are there any MySpace people out there. I don’t know if you have to be signed in to check a profile, so my url is:

http://www.myspace.com/shirttailslim

I agree with your concept of staying young.

That’s why I read comics, watch cartoons, and spend time with my great nephews and great nice.

They are a ways off so its not as often as I like.

love ‘em all.

Oh yes, GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!

Go get ‘em Sandy.

One more thing, Jr may not be dead, thick skull remember.

\\//_

Good morning everybody!

Leaky - Thanks for the affirmation - Sock Puppets Rule!!

Now, concerning the discussion about rerunning the Harold Gray strips. I don’t think that’s going to happen because of copyright infringement. But maybe GoComics can rerun the Leonard Starr strips. Heck, that’s almost 20 years of Annie right there.

I had the same thought as dkram, that Junior was just stunned and he’ll be able to tell them where his dad is going. However, I’m sure the camera has to figure into this somehow, unlike DT where red herrings flop all over the place.” If you show a gun in Act 1, you had better use it in Act 2,” or however that saying goes. “Always leave them begging for more..” that seems to be the writers’ motto here. A good one, but sad for us.

Hope that camera Annie left behind is digital.

Will you need my social security and bank account numbers, leaky?

That sounds like my kind of place, Shirttail Slim.

I’m going to greatly miss this strip, too.

Instead of dropping it at some arbitrary date, I wish they’d hold off until this storyline plays out to the end. It’s very interesting as they all are, and I’d sure like to see it finish before the strip is gone for good.

Morning all. I am addicted to this page/site/?

Got a quickie before I go, and no, not that kind of quickie!

When in doubt, I often shout, my frustrations with a curse, Only to find out, if I’d just looked about, thing really could have been worse.

Have a great day and, see everyone this afternoon.

LOL :-)

SS, thanks for sharing your My Space page. I enjoyed reading it. I love horror, too, and don’t go for sappy love stories very much. I’m gald that you found us, you’re fun to know. :-)

Leaky, I’ve accumulated 50 hours this past week, and I expect my paycheck to reflect the same…

As was nentioned, Jr. just might not be dead. But with his “cards missing brain”, what could he do. And if he’s alive and taken,would he tell them where Papa went? Could he even lead them there and most importantly of all, how long will it take the boat to get a mile out???

I’m back to my apartment hale and hearty and am my normal feisty self. I’m doing to go get my daily conics fix and come back. Sure hope someine’s around to talk with. Or does everybody take afternoon maps in preparation for the ?:15 time?

I

Wow!! Margueritem, you’ve earned a whole five dollars this week!! That should just about pay for your Genius status.

Well I feel the same way about the folks I’ve met here.

I enjoy making people smile and laugh. A day without doing it to at least one or two is a wasted day for me! :-)))))

Are you on My Space? Let me be a friend. Faster and lengthier cpmmunication! Ask me and I will accept. Been there for a few years.

Margueritem, on the subject of horror movues. Have you seen “Hostel”, and/or “Hostel 2”? Very gory. And for a new take on the zombie thing, check out “Dead Girl”.

Uh oh, Sandy’s gonna loose the trail at the dock!

You’re sure a tough boss, leaky!

Is this a union job? And don’t all of the paychecks go to the “head” pop sucket anyhow?! LOL

LS, I don’t have to keep a time card, I’m a volunteer! :-)

Lonewolf

There is NO union involved here.

These are free lance, well paid commenters!!

Hi everyone,

Not sure I like the east coast time change!!! I have to wait until 1:15 a.m. for the go comics to change!!

I really miss hearing from all of you!

Raleigh is nice, family is fantastic, and we’ll be flying home on the night of the 2nd, and life should be back to normal on the 3rd!

I’ve gone over the last few day’s comments, and miss being able to cabitz…………marge for your logic, leaky for your sillyness, VistaBill for your compassion, Lonewolf for your caring, WW for your poetry, and SS for your life history!!!!

Cheers………….and good night, all….

Great to hear from you, MLady! Good Night!

That’s what I go through every night, ML!

MontanaLady said, “…VistaBill for your compassion,…”

Gee, thanks, ML. You sure do know how to make an old man feel good!

Speakong of WW, where is he? Haven’t seen him or BassMan the last few nights??

*WW* is in a hermetically sealed chamber composing 38 poems for everyones enjoyment.

BassmanBob6 is currently on sabbatical.

OMG! WW is in a hermetically sealed chamber? Jeez, I sure hope it’s a big one. what with the hyper-ventilating that composing causes, air can be used up fairly fast.

Sabbatical? Where did he go?

Don’t volunteers get a gift of some sort? Doesn’t have to be much, you know, maybe a small Mercedes or something?

SS, I’m not on My Space or Facebook, and really don’t have any desire to join. If I were on either site, however, I would be your friend. Yes, I saw both ‘Hostels’. Haven’t seen ‘Dead Girl’ You can watch Japanese horror movies as well as older American ones on YouTube. They show them in 10 minute segments.

Leaky, that check tallies with my figures. Whoo-hoo!!! Mad money!!!!!!

There is no conclusicve evidence of life after death. But there is no evidence of any sort against it. Soon enough you will know. So why fret about it? (Lazarus Long)

Margueritem, I can’t watch videos on my computer. It’s a dial-up and far too slow for video, or music that isn’t on a CD. I am not on facebook either, heard too many things about it I didn’t like. Can’t do YouTube because of the above. I’m planning on speeding up after I move back downtown,

Morning, Anniephans!

Still hard to believe they canceled such a great strip!
