The Coffee Cup Lids Contest

Friday, April 06, 2007 - 09:29 PM

When two comic strips compete to see who can get the most humor out of coffee cup lids, doesn't everyone win?

A hearty handshake to the lads at Unshelved for the week of silly revelry. It was good fun. I honestly don't think I ever would have ventured into 1950's propaganda films without the desperate need to find something funny about lids.

If you haven't done so already, bookmark Unshelved, or sign up for their free, daily, ad-free e-mail deliveryof the strip. I highly recommend it.
