Marm Drove Home

So this is how the next coupla weeks are going to go down:
July 30 - August 5: Bill will be in charge of the site. You may remember him from, well, the last time he guested here.
August 6 - August 12: Pete will be updating. As I've explained already, Pete and I used to blog together back in the days when we all thought Bush might be a one-term president.
I will return on
August 14, posting live from Los Angeles and, for the first time in MCV history, from a Macintosh computer. Who knows, maybe I'll start using that obnoxious "Chicago" font they used on the old school iPods.
Marmaduke Is Not Green
Full Color Feature!

Ladies and gentlemen,
Thank you once again for coming back to the site. Specifically thank you to those of you who read the site who are not merely friends of mine clicking on my profile link. I thank you for reading the site not out of obligation.
On Sunday morning, I will be leaving town to travel across the country from beautiful Richboro, Pennsylvania, to Los Angeles. Upon my arrival in LA, I will continue updating this blog. In the meantime, I have asked two friends to fill in for me. You may remember Bill, who took the reins last time I was away in May. He will be returning for one week.
Joining Bill on this guest strip period will be Peter Shadzik. Peter was responsible for my big start in the blogosphere when he recruited me to write for his site,
Kick The Leftist. Now that it's been a while since KtL gracefully bowed out, I thought it would be interesting to reverse the situation and have him write for my own blog.
I am looking forward to seeing what both Bill and Peter come up with. More details (including the specific schedule) and more posts to come this week...

Stolen Punchline
Isn't
today's Marmaduke stolen right out of that one "midday during peak hours" cell phone commercial?
Note
I don't think I can turn today's Marmaduke into a political strip. How can you really link yoga to the present Israel-Lebanon conflict? But I'd really like to ask Brad Anderson what's going on with
today's strip. Is Marmaduke supposed to be laughing at Mrs. Winslow's vagina??

Internet browsings have led me to a fellow Marmaduke blogger,
Joe Mathlete. Another great take on that beloved Great Dane in which he explains in perfect deadpan exactly what is happening in every day's strip. If you dig my blog, please check out his.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while but I've had somewhat of a writer's block lately. The pictures Anderson gave me this week were pretty specific and therefore hard to repurpose. I'll try to make a more concerted effort this week.
Happy 230th, America!
The Sunday Special
Because I was away all weekend, you get a full color MCV which reveals a shocking truth about the Winslow family. Click this small pic to read it:

And I can't believe that
on Saturday, Marmaduke went really-seriously-along-the-lines-of-this-site political. Nice work, Anderson. I will take this strip as a tip of the hat to my blog.
