Well, the tenth birthday of something familiar[^] is showing in a "window" anyway.
Happy Birthday Randall...

Indeed. Happy Birthday XKCD!
The amazing bit is that he can still come up with 3 good ideas a week after all this time...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

But does he? He averages three good ideas a week, but who's to say it's not an inspiration fest for a few days then dry for the rest of the month? We'll never know until he tells us!

Doesn't matter - to keep up that level of inspiration for ten years is seriously impressive!

Well IMHO not all the strips have the same quality, and I think that on average the quality rose at first and declined.

IMHO the 'H' stands for 'honest'.

It looks like everyone has different views on the letter "H." It looks like the H actually does stand for Humble. Per the Googles. Clickety.[^]

Yup! But we all know what it really stands for is 'haughty' in practice.

He caches ideas as all artists do, in fact when he had dire family problems he had a script that published strips automatically.

It is not that hard.
Most of us do it in our regular job.
Being a cartoonist is not rocket science, it is just a different kind of job.
I'd rather be phishing!

And isn't it good that TV and radio shows can now sing, play and arrange the birthday song as many times as they can possibly find an excuse for without having to consider the cost. It'll be Happy Birthday morning, noon and night from now on. Wall-to-wall ..... hmm, I may not have thought this through as thoroughly as I might have!

Talking of which, I had the misfortune to go to a Chuck E. Cheese once. Just the once - never again. Makes KFC look like fine dining...

American baseball legend Yogi Berra, said to have inspired the cartoon character Yogi Bear, has died at the age of 90.
He was an inspiration, with such wisdom as "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."

Yogi Berra wrote: In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is. One of my favorites. I use it all the time.
RIP

He went to get pizza one day, but wasn't very hungry; so he told the chef, "cut the pizza in four pieces, I'm not hungry enough to eat six."

Yogi Berra said: "No one goes there anymore. It's too crowded."

Another legend has passed.
Not on a par with Will Rogers but a philosopher none the less.

Yogi Berra: Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours. I don't think he has to worry about people not coming to his funeral. He was an all-time great player (and philosopher), and will be greatly missed.
