- As expected, the judges of
the Daily Grind contest have ruled that I'm out on grounds of violation of
the single-panel rule.
- Today's is the 1500th daily AKOTAS since it began. It almost
wasn't. At 16:55 CDT yesterday I sat down to create this cartoon, and a storm
came through my town and knocked power out in scattered areas all over the
city, including our townhouse complex. My wife and I fell back on the ancient
and honored method for passing time of reading a book, for about an hour and
a half. Then we decided that going to see whether there was still power at
the restaurant hosting my 30th high school reunion get-together was better
than sitting at home waiting to see when the power would come back on. The
restaurant did have power. We enjoyed ourselves, but we heard while we were
there that there's at least one section of the city that may be without power
for four or five days, and on the way back from the restaurant all the
traffic lights that had been dead on our way out were still dead. We got home
about 22:30. If we hadn't had any power, this cartoon would have to have
waited to be completed and uploaded as much as fourteen to sixteen hours
later than usual, till I'd got to a public library. But we did discover that
power was back on - since, according to the lapsed time on the stove clock,
about forty-five minutes before we got home. So here we are.
