6. right before the pandemic started my local newspaper cut the paper from 5 days a week to 4..

...so I supplemented it with a second newspaper and I committed to reading them all the way thru..including the comix. I wasnt much of a reader of the daily comics until then but now i look forward to them and Pearls before swine is one i really enjoy! And since i no longer read Scott Adams' rag, I have more time
