Whatever you do, don't look directly at the acrobats. It will only encourage them.

Compelled by the knowledge that their working life is growing shorter every minute, the acrobats REFUSE to leave the stage, even during INTERMISSION!

Mary Worth 2236
When you re-encounter an old crush, one of two things will happen. You'll either start singing Garth Brooks' "Unanswered Prayers," or your heart will get stomped on all over again. Mary has completely used John Dill to entertain little Olive and now all that remains are a few parting gifts and his tears. Inside each muffin, John has carefully baked a note hand-scribed with this message, "I will love you forever. Please call me. 202-555-CAKE."
Unfortunately, Mary and Olive are about to donate the muffins to the faithful hobo. Ultimately, the hobo will get a job at the bakery, thus fulfilling Olive's food service vision. Funny how things seem to work out.

It's nice to see some things never change... Even though he's trained under Chef Pierre for three years, John Dill's cake vision remains largely unaltered.

Oh, yes. John Dill has become a master of restraint. If he was more impulsive, he'd have to deal with mother nature!

A white puzzle to commemorate Martin Luther King Jr Day. Challenging, but insulting.

Won't your friends be impressed with your new timepiece, Olive? Oh, wait. Sorry. You're too special for friends.

I like to practice gratitude by asking other people to give me money for the homeless when I'm already carrying a five dollar bill in my pocket.

The Eighth Annual Worthy Awards
Welcome to the eighth annual Worthy Awards, celebrating outstanding achievement in the Mary Worth comic strip during 2015, brought to you by Splak - the breakfast cereal with as much fiber as a mighty oak.
It's the event of the year! And you've played a very important part. Thousands of votes were cast, but two categories came within two votes to determine the winner. Yes, every vote counts.
But first, to get things started, here's Dionne Warwick and the Green Jacket Dancers!
Thank you awkward Asian woman for turning off the video playing machine!
And now, on to our first category.

I Guess I Love you After All
... Wait a minute... Okay, folks. I have to apologize. Let me just take control of this. This is exactly what's on the card. I will take responsibility for this. It was my mistake. It was on the card. I don't know how I got so confused. The real winner of the Story of the Year Worthy is...
Breaking Up is Hard to Read About
Could someone please take the Worthy Award out of Terry Bryson's ice cold hands and give it to Toby Cameron? I'm serious, "Breaking Up" beat "I Guess I Love You" by one vote. Just one vote. No, get that trophy away from her before she flings open every door and escapes. And get Adam Miller's trophy and give it to Ian Cameron. No, he's easy to catch. Just take the trophy away. There you go. Okay, that's all worked out. Everyone happy except Terry and Adam? Okay, good.
Thanks to our sponsor Splak, Dionne Warwick, and especially you! On behalf of the entire Condo Board, we'll see you next year!
