Yep, that is “Hug Line”, not “Hot Line”! When it comes to embraces, the word “hug” is more G-rated. If you go around saying “hot” on Valentine’s Day, people’s minds might race. Some will run into an R-rated gutter (or worse)! That’s right everyone, today is Valentine’s Day! It is the most well known of the “Hallmark Holidays”, beating out Grandparents Day, Secretaries Administrative Professionals Day and Boss Day by a landslide. I am not a romantic and neither are those loved ones in my life (thank goodness). This holiday was great back in grade school when everyone got or made cards for everyone and you got a box of those chalky hearts. Unfortunately, the expected price tag gets bigger and bigger as you get older. Let’s talk about the image instead of listening to me rain on Valentine’s Day.
So I almost had the webcomic timed so that the Hob-Pat Hug would be released today. Don’t know what I am talking about? Check out the comic! Since I couldn’t justify making that arrangement, I present to you instead… the hug line! Nob is not one for public displays of affection. That goes double when the PDA is directed at the little gobo leader. Not me! If Valentine’s Day was the day hugs were given, every day would be Valentine’s Day for me. And remember, if you are all alone on this special day, you can always give yourself a hug!
Happy second anniversary to you, Gobo Gazette! Time sure flies when you’re putting out a comic each week for two years (minus one day a year for the holidays). It might not be a three-strip a week comic, but the story has developed quite a bit since the gobos had left their cave behind and entered the larger world. And explored it en masse or in groups of four. No idea what I am talking about? Well then, you need to catch up 
Why yes, it is Christmas time! Time to wake up and open up all those presents! Do you watch 
That’s right! It’s that special November Thursday where everyone fills up on fine food and finer company! It is Thanksgiving time! And, as it says in its name, it is a time to look back at what we have and give thanks for it. Seems easy enough, right? Just go to your big chain grocery store, load up on all the goods, and then cook it up. Sure it may take some time to prep and get everything ready, but you’ll have help. And there will be plenty of socializing as things warm up, both in the kitchen and on the television as the big game kicks off.
Inktober 2019 will be the second Inktober for Gobo Gazette. It will be the third Inktober I participated in overall. Some of you might be asking, what is Inktober? Well, you can go right to
