Aack! Finally!

I'm currently hanging around the Portland airport, so I thought I might as well post a quick update.

The comic strip Cathy, considered by many (myself included) to be the worst widely-circulated comic in the history of the world, finally ended when its writer and creater Cathy Guisewite called it quits last month.

I think this is great news. I used to read the comics every day when I was younger. I read all of them, even Cathy. It was the only strip that I never, ever, laughed at. It's like the comic strip equilvilent of the TV Show Frasier.

I'm not the only one with this opinion. Check out these anti-Cathy links.

The Huffington Post's Bill Mann reports that Cathy is battling Family Circus in a online poll for worst comic ever.

The website Guyism reveals its hilarious picks for worst Cathy strips of all time.

A Facebook group which needs more members shares its feelings about Cathy leaving the newspapers. See it here.

Care2's Robin Marty writes about Cathy in her piece entitled, "Cathy Comic Strip Ends, Readers Reminded It Still Existed".

Okay, gotta catch a plane. I'll post the Music-Found-Poem soon.
