In my last discussion I asked if you prefered paper newspapers, or to read the newspapers and other kinds of news publications on line. I prefer to read everything on line. My three favourite comics are Pickles, Family Circus, and Garfield. I have subscriptions to all of them, so I get new ones in my in-box every day. I don't just have to wait for the ones to come out on weekends.

I don't read the comics on the funny page. I only get Saturday and Sunday paper and I'm thinking about quitting my home delivery altogether. The only reason I get a paper is for the coupons in Sunday's paper. I'm going to start getting the paper at the somer on Sunday and save money.

As I mentioned in a previous discussion, I don't read newspapers much anymore so I don't see a comics page. Actually most of the newspapers I did read did not have much in the way of comics, anyway.
The comic strip I like most is Get Fuzzy. In the past when I read comics I would read Peanuts, Beetle Bailey, Nancy, Family Circus, Garfield, and a number of others that I can't remember right now because I haven't read them in so long!

There used to be quite a few I'd read in my parents' papers, but since I moved out, I couldn't read the comics anymore. I've only really had one favorite, though, and that would be Garfield. Garfield's my all-time favorite! Luckily, I found a way to get Garfield e-mailed to me everyday, so I still read it. :) I used to get Family Circus, too, but I found out I'm not much of a fan of it anymore, so I canceled that subscription.

I tried, but never really got into the comics. Family Circle (those little kids are probably the "oldest" little kids in history!!) They were funny all the time. Peanuts.. sometimes but really other than that.. I didn't really bother with them.
But I do remember years ago, when I was trying to teach myself to like the comics.. Apartment 3-G was a strip about a girl reporter/investigator and I wanted to be like her... my own apartment, cool job and all... I tried to follow that comic strip but just couldn't make it happen.

I haven't read the newspaper since I quit throwing it back in my early 20's, I made a lot of money back then. I used to read Family Circus cause it was short and sweet. I do like The Wizard of Id and every now and then I'll read Beatle Bailey. I guess I could get them sent to my inbox too.
