Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2003 | Series: Far Side 2004 Calendars

Remember the good old days of the 1990s? The go-go economy was unstoppable. Unemployment hit historic lows. And hotshot dot.commers hopped jobs like those "Sex and the City women hop beds. "Old Economy" bosses courted tech-savvy employees with stock options, casual dress codes, and free office soda. "Nothing was gonna burst this bubble...Oh, how times have changed. Forget about cashing in those stock options--in these days of bankruptcies and bail-outs, rampant right-sizing, and corporate scandals, the average worker is likely to toil all day with crossed legs rather than run the risk of being reprimanded for taking an occasional bathroom break. What's a put-upon post-boom desk jockey to do? We have the answer. "The Far Side Out to Lunch 2004 Mini Wall Calendar (please resist the urge to call it down-sized) offers a dozen of Gary Larson's funniest work-related cartoons all in a package that fits neatly on a cubicle wall. Each glance in its direction will send your mind on a mini-vacation, or--at the very least--remind you that there is something funnier than the guys in accounting trying to dress casual on Fridays.

Is it just me or is the May cartoon supposed to be a parody of Sept. 11? It shows a giant fly crashing into a windshield company skyscraper, with people dangling out the windows and falling to the street. I doubt even Larson would want to make a joke of this, but somehow it's a little to creepily close for me. Besides this the calender is great as always.
