Happy Mole Day! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_Day You'd figure a bunch of chemists could find a better website designer than that.

Re: Hey, Old Mole!

Is today also a day for volunteering? Four comic strips in the Daily News this morning mentioned "volunteering." (Hägar, Marmaduke, Blondie, and Dilbert.)

Also Mutts, Dennis the Menace, Family Circus, Speed Bump, Garfield, Baby Blues - and probably some others I don't read.

Dennis the Menace was my favorite as a kid , was that a popular title over here?

It used to be very popular. In fact, it was even a network TV series about 50 years ago. The strip is well past its prime, though. Dennis looked a lot less menacing once we met Calvin.

I still care deeply for Alice Mitchell. The volunteering theme has been going on all week, but today may have been its peak. Could you imagine the Lockhorns coming to plant your community garden?

I guess I can cross reading to children at the toon library off my list of potential good deeds. Have a great day anyway mole.
