    From Mark Jackson@21:1/5 to All on Sun Feb 4 10:56:37 2024
    The Rochester NY /Democrat and Chronicle/ has been a Gannett paper since
    1928, when local boy Frank Gannett added it to the company he had
    founded here in 1923. Today they changed their Sunday comics lineup.

    New (7):
    Baby Blues
    Beetle Bailey
    Family Circus
    Foxtrot
    Marmaduke
    Non Sequitur
    Zits

    Continuing (11):
    Blondie
    Crabgrass
    Dennis the Menace
    For Better or For Worse
    Garfield
    Hagar
    Jump Start
    Peanuts
    Pearls Before Swine
    Pickles
    Ziggy

    Out (9):
    B.C.
    Broomhilda
    Doonesbury
    Hi and Lois
    Prince Valiant
    Rex Morgan

    Net loss of two. The previous lineup filled all four pages of the
    section; now we have three comics pages and a full-page ad.

    Dress for the job you want, not the job you have,
    assuming that the job you want is not one in which you
    get to lounge around your apartment naked. - Colin Stokes

    I have tried to bring scientific thinking to literary
    criticism, and there's been very little gratitude for this.
