Like most of the country, I eagerly awaited the return of Doonebury to my
local paper. Having read it since then, I've found that I'm very
disappointed in the quality of the work. Perhaps I've been spoiled by Bloom
County and friends, but I think that the new Doonesbury simply doesn't have
the spark that made it what it was. I've gone back through my archives, and
I get the feeling that Trudeau is pushing-- his humor is forced and he is
spending too much time on storylines that don't work very well and simply
aren't interesting. There have been some good storylines, but overall its
been quite disappointing. Am I alone in this feeling? Perhaps I'm simply
expecting too much of Doonesbury, but I simply don't think it has survived
the time off very well.

Deadbone erotica is the prickly panic of forgotten milleniums, it is the moldy 
billion year madness that creeps deep along the spinal behind of my mind.
