I really, really hope so! have been busy some months now on my least favorite activity, looking for work. it's kept me from reading the blog, much less posting here. now that I'm more fully employed I can get the EDTWOF and enjoy the strips in a whole new way -- maybe after the first of the year. don't have a large pool of people buying gifts for me, so my hopes of getting it for Christmas are pretty dim. I didn't recognize the strip (in the Time's review) where Toni and Clarice are having planned sex, though I remember the first part where Raffi's leaving for the soccer game. it'll be fun to see what else is fresh on another read. congrats on the review, Alison! maybe this public, mainstream recognition will assure continuation of the strip?

I got all teary at the end, too. Congrats, Alison! DeLandDeLakes--ah, yes, Lavender. Sigh. That was where I discovered DTWOF, too. Now I don't even pick it up any more, since every time I do it just makes me angry and embarrassed. I really don't need to look at naked dudes or ugly condo ads or creepy fashion spreads (or naked dude fashion spread set in ugly condos, which I'm pretty sure they've done a couple "articles" on).

I was reading William Arrowsmith's introduction to his translation of "The Satyricon", which was published in 1959, and he uses the word "gay" in a context which could mean "lighthearted" or which might mean "gay". Was that usage of the word in play that early on? Funny thing.
