There are many comic strips it's hard to believe exist for reasons
other than to be ridiculed.
The Family Circus did have a stretch where it was really funny, and by
every account Bil Keane was a great guy. I'm sorry that he's gone, but he did
do iconic work, and left a lot of people happier, or at least feeling better,
than they otherwise were, and that's not such a bad record, is it?
