How to Have a Frank Discussion About a Recurring Issue

First new comic of the new year. The optimistic beginning of our fresh new lap of the drain, as it were. I hope you and everyone you care about have had good holidays and will have a good year. As for me, I can’t really complain.

Well, as I’ve said many times, I can complain, but no one will want to hear it because I am, in fact, the luckiest person any of you know. You’re all a big part of that, and I appreciate it.

Yes, I said I was taking two weeks off, and I did, but I realized I could post my newest comic a week early so you wouldn't have to endure two solid weeks without my nonsense. Truly, my benevolence knows no bounds. There'll be no comic next week, then we'll be back to normal.

NOTE: So, a little bad news, I will need to take the next two weeks off. By the time you read this, I will be back, but Missy and I have to go back to Eastern Washington for a funeral. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Scott suspects that in the first draft of the Billy Joel song "Always a Woman," anywhere the word "woman" appears, it was originally "A-hole." Whoever she is who can kill with a smile, wound with her eyes, and ruin your faith with her casual lies, Billy Joel doesn't seem to like her. Wikipedia says he wrote it about his first wife. Rick's reaction is that it's a love song, not a like song. Love and like are very different things. Just ask his ex-wives.
