When to Say Goodbye

As a youth, I was completely crushed when Gary Larson stopped making Far Side cartoons. The world as I knew it came to an end and I quit consistently reading the comics. Why was he depriving the world of his wit, charm and humor? I never understood why the King of Comics would gracefully bow out.

Now I do.

New episodes of the Simpsons started last weekend and I have been dually unimpressed. Last night I found myself getting up during the show to make Tacos (a chore I had planned to do after the show ended). American humor has progressed.... Family Guy is the future of animated comedy and it's time for the Simpsons to bow out gracefully.... or be remembered like Gasoline Alley, Circus Peanuts and Tom Arnold.
