Don't know if you comic & curmudgeon fans saw this, but I was always a fan:
"The lead character in Jim Unger's offbeat cartoon panel "Herman" is a rumpled, middle-aged everyman, with a bulging belly and a potato-sized nose, dealing with the frustrations and absurdities of everyday life.
In one panel, Unger's lumpy hero wears an apron and washes the dishes as his wife glowers over his shoulder. The caption says, "It's one small step for a man, one giant leap toward a divorce."
The award-winning British-born cartoonist had a good idea why his widely syndicated cartoon was so popular. "Everybody knows themselves when they see Herman," he once said. "We all think we're so different and we're not."
Unger, 75, died May 29 at his home in Saanich, British Columbia, Canada, said a spokesman for Universal Uclick, the features syndicate that distributes the "Herman" cartoons. The cause of death was not disclosed."

Thought somebody might appreciate this...
My son (age 8) frequently doodles on his math homework, and the other day he had this on it:
1) Top of page 1 - crazy looking face (kind of a Darth Maul thing with less tattoos and more hair)
2) Bottom of page 1 - same face
3) Top of page 2 - same face, in fact the three pictures are unusually similar for his doodles
4) Bottom of page 2 - same face, with this note and an arrow pointing to the face: "Does not evolve"Last edited by Controller Jacobs; 03-25-2013, 03:44 PM.people called me an idiot for burning popcorn in the microwave, but i know the real truth. - nullnor
