back-cornered

back-rhymes

I don’t think two “excited to be going back to work” comics really qualifies as synchronicity, but it was interesting that Mr. Baldwin and Ms. Piccolo both decided that this was the day.

Both in my inbox last night: more coincidence than synchronicity, I guess, but still borders on the absurd.

This article is a year old, but it showed up an hour after I responded to somebody who sent me the McGarry cartoon as a CIDU.

Not the world’s best article, by the way, but that’s not really the point.
