RSS Bot #1 Posted October 24, 2008 Twenty-six years, two months, and five days. That's how long I've been waiting to post this blog entry! Actually, back then, I didn't even know I'd have a blog now. Or what a blog was. Or would be. The point is, I've been waiting for this particular day for that long. "Why," you ask?

It had only been around about a year and-a-half, but one day a strip was published that I had to cut out of the newspaper and stick up on the wall in my room. It remained there for years, and was one of my favorite strips. But like many early Bloom County strips, it was never printed in any collection. I long-ago lost the strip, but never forgot about it, having read it countless times and burned it into my memory. I always wanted to try and get a copy of it again. I'd even considered contacting the newspaper syndicate to see if I could get a photocopy of it somehow. But then last year sometime, Gocomics began running Bloom County from the very beginning. Every strip. I knew all I had to do was wait. Today, after months of reading, after years of waiting... they finally re-ran that strip: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?a...;showentry=5400 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
