I can't tell you how much I am enjoying these "flashback" strips. It's like reliving my youth (ha!) and my boys' growing up years. Watching Michael grow up again is like watching my Michael grow up again! I didn't have a daughter, but Michael's relationship with his baby sister mirrors the one between my two boys. I am very happy that these strips are being run - I can hardly wait to see how it all turns out! :-)

I noticed that a couple of people have been repeating "medical" advice that has been circulating as an e-mail forward--the practice of spread Vick's VapoRub on children's feet to alleviate a cough. Please take a moment to read the www.snopes.com/medical/homecure/vaporub.asp write-up about this at the Snopes urban-legend page.

Lynn, Your art has brought me immeasurable joy over the years. In a world upsidedown with pain and suffering, your little window-in on the Patterson family always makes me feel better. Thank you. Respectfully Yours

Put me down as a fan that also does not like those boring Patterson "letters". Reminds me of annual christmas brag letters that come with the christmas card.

Finding the website where I can see all the currently running as well as all the great old columns ABSOLUTELY MADE MY DAY! I missed them when our fav. daily paper which carried fborfw stopped its circulation in our town. Thanks Lynn!

I have loved For Better or Worse since its inception. Even though I miss the "old strip," I'm really getting into the new one.

This website is wonderful. Keep up the good work!
