Gary Larson's <i>The Far Side</i>

An SI Board Since August 2004

Introduction Compact

For many years I started my day with a laugh by reading my "Far Side" daily calendar. Sometimes the daily panel illustrated a work situation so well I felt compelled to post it outside my cubicle. In fact, I found that NO situation in my place of employment was left unscathed by a Far Side cartoon.

This site is for people who lament the passing into history of this unbeatable cartoon series and want to share our experiences with it.

No potty mouth. No politics. No mean talk. Just the "Far Side."

We may not post anything that violates copyright laws.

Fortunately, Gary Larson just published his complete works. It's the heaviest and most expensive book I have, but if you run down to Costco SOON, you may find some still left for less than $100. Amazon.com and Borders probably has it too.

My personal favorite: "The Bozone Layer, protecting the rest of the universe from the harmful effects of earth." Let me tell you, many are the times when the Bozone Layer was visible from where I sat.
