This comic is quite funny, especially where it sneakily infers that SP Harrison is related to Bishop Stephan by photoshopping Harrison's mug onto Stephan's torso.
Of course to read it, one must click on the comic to get the larger image, and maybe click on the resulting image again to enlarge it once more if one still can't read it. Then repeat for the second half of the comic.
The reason for these steps is Blogger shrinks large graphics (with "large" not being very large at all). Then the browser thinks it's being helpful by shrinking the graphic again to fit in the viewer, but that makes graphics with text unreadable, so clicking on it again "magnifies" it to 100% size.
A lot of people don't know it, but they can enlarge (or shrink) any page or graphic they are viewing in most browsers by pressing the Control and Plus (or Minus) buttons together at the same time. So a person shrink a graphic to, say, 25% its original size, or enlarge it to, say, 300% its original size, all depending on the capabilities of the browser a person is using.

"Found this in the video files... A new zip line was set up last summer, south of St. Louis. What a hoot! Reminded me that it's time for vacation again. M.H."
