When I was younger, I always looked forward to reading the newspaper comics, especially the full page, color, Sunday comics. The Far Side was one of my favorites. Check out this particularly relevant, recent comic from the artist Gary Larson. Do you miss newspaper comics? What was your favorite comic?

Encina Grande, Walnut Creek
Look for Starbird Chicken to open at the Encina Grande shopping center in Walnut Creek in January 2021. Check out their menu here.
From their website:

With the presidential election almost two weeks away, millions of votes have already been cast. Last night there were separate presidential candidate town halls and I really can’t imagine the choice being any clearer one way or another. A family member mentioned a friend who was undecided, and when I heard their reasoning, I was frankly shocked. Are you still undecided or know anyone who is undecided? What reasoning do they give?
