I believe that Bill Griffith's Zippy The Pinhead has been at the top of its run thes past 4 years as well.

Can you, or someone else, please explain that strip to me? It is the weirdest thing in the newspaper, bar none . . .

You don't get Zippy the Pinhead?... You must be light on your meds. Double up immediately. Then it'll all be clear.

Like "Boondocks," it takes the occasional swipe at conservative ideologies and most certainly the Bush administration, but it does so in an "artsy" way. Most of us Freepers wouldn't understand.

You too, can become "critically acclaimed," you just have to produce some kind of artwork that rejects George W. Bush, or promotes the gay agenda...take your pick.

It may read better in the annual compendium where strips are gathered together (either by linear continuity or by subject/theme/technique). There is also an appendix of where the different monuments referenced in the strip are located and I think there may be some other references in the back as well.
