you, my friend, are getting OLD

I'm watching Jeopardy - I think it must be high school Jeopardy - and the last clue in the category Comics was something like "He's the cat who's friends with Opus." There was a picture and everything. None of the kids even buzzed in. What is the world coming to, when allegedly nerdy teenagers can't identify Bill the Cat?

I wonder how old Alex Trebek feels!

See? See? Even standardized testing isn't the answer to everything. Not knowing who Bill the Cat is, indeed...

We are leaving *millions* of children behind!

You know what's sad? My immediate thought was "Garfield," having confused 'Odie' for 'Opus'. I'm a good-for-nothin 13-year-old.

Garfield! Bwahhahahaha! Incidentally, has anyone else noticed Garfield getting funnier lately, or is that just me?
