You should check out the Comics Curmudgeon (http://joshreads.com/) to keep up on the various truths behind the comics (the dark, bitter truths!), incl. Family Circus.
@grapfhics, I think Camping may have forgotten to turn his calculator off octal or hexadecimal. This is what happens all too often when an engineer retires: he can’t put his fondness for numbers to constructive use, so he takes up some kind of numerology.
Camping said something about Saturday’s Rapture having been a spiritual event. I guess that means the souls of the faithful went to heaven, leaving behind two hundred million zombies. I don’t know how you could detect that change in his believers.
If Camping is right and it comes on Oct 21, what rule will apply at Fenway if the Cubs has the Series tied 3-3? World Champion forever and ever. Sox or Cubs in Eternal Glory?
My husband had to show me “Family Circus” in tonight’s paper for me to get the joke. I may be slow today, but I’m still laughing 15 minutes later. Brilliant, Pab!

It’s OK. The spaceship carrying the telephone sanitisers, hairdressers and interior decorators will be here on Friday

Rapture II Don’t miss the sequel, October 21st! Or whenever HC gets his astrocalculator working properly.

I didn’t know the Family Circus were evangelicals.

Be sure to pick up Camping’s newest book, Okay, Okay, I’m an Idiot.

“None shall know.” Anyone who sets a date is automatically a false prophet, & must be stoned.

I checked our paper (online) from 21st thru today and see no connection- today asked grandma if she’s an antique.
