Fifth Anniversary!

I almost forgot to commemorate the date, but May 10th marked five years of Johnny Optimism cartoons (and that's thirty-five years to Lance)!

Thank you to all who visit this site and share the cartoons. I'd say more, but I want to get a slice of that cake before Johnny's helper monkey gets any romantic notions about it.    -Stilton Jarlsberg

Readers-  It now dawns on me that no one under the age of 60 is likely to get this joke. Here's a commercial from about a half century ago (sigh...) that not only explains the gag, but also explains why I should have my name and address stitched into my clothing in case I wander off.
