Five or six years ago on a last second mission to get gift wrap from the local Wal Mart I grabbed a couple rolls of paper from the only bin that had anything left in it. It wasn’t until after I’d wrapped a couple packages that I noticed the discrete black script wishing me a “Happy Kwanzaa”. Oh well, paper is paper and no one really looks, right?
I used it for a couple years before somebody finally asked what Kwanzaa was. I tried to explain it to them without too much success. What do you expect from a bunch of rural Scandinavians?
Farewell Kwanzaa, you will not be missed.
I’m more of a Festivus kinda guy anyway.

Not completely gone, alas.
But certainly circling the drain.

Oddly enough, the same strip exhibits a split personality.

Curtis was always a lame comic.

I used to read it while I lived in Chicago, largely because it was in every newspaper there, and nearly unavoidable. Probably still is. But I confess that I had a certain fascination for it, largely because of its lameness, and attempts at “sending a message”, some good, some bad, but messed because of the lameness.
When I left Chicago, I never even thought of that strip until I read this post. And now, I will endeavor to bury the memory again.
