What one product should you not be without while taking a toon-tour?
SPAM-BE-GONE
Yes, Spam-Be-Gone, the radically new product in an aerosol can which can be sprayed upon the offending Spam. One spritz and you can see it turn red in its death throes.
And for the amazing price of only *VBT3000.00 it can be shipped direct to your computer.
Remember. SPAM-BE-GONE. The latest product of the renown Fly by Night Industries, so you know it works!!
*VBT - this is the currency unit, much like USD or EUR. Wander over to the Big Top to experience virtual cuisine to rival Hell’s Kitchen at nearly any hour.
I have been reading some old CATHY books I dug out.
I have calculated a “real life” age for Irving based on when he said he was born in one strip (late 50’s) and his HS reunion (1977). This info is in THE WEDDING OF CATHY AND IRVING book.
Makes him about 51, so Cathy is a few years younger, possibly the same age…..
Electra (C’s dog) would be 22, and Vivian (I’s adopted “older” dog) would be more.

Then why are you here … not only reading it and our comments but also making one of your own? There’s tons of comics online that you could be reading right now that you’ve never seen before if only you weren’t hanging out here with us in a place called “Cathy Classics”!
There’s a new, creative form of spam here: it tells you about using a new product to get rid of spam. Well, I use the old, tried-and-true method: flagging it. One moment please…

I like it better when Cathy’s mom isn’t so syrupy sweet about Cathy. LOL
I think others figured out that these are from 1999, and I would think the date on the comic is correct (Oct 9).

Chat room? Well that narrows it to anytime after 1985… :)

Seems it is the same stuff except in black and white.

The strip the other day had FALL ‘99 in it. So, I would guess it’s still the fall of ‘99 if they are going in order.
