Maxine on Saturday

Hi my friends! I just bought myself a MAXINE calendar for 2010! And it ocurred to me that there are an awful LOT of MAXINE cartoons. They are on the Internet, on cards and in books.

She's a fiesty old girl and I think she'd LOVE having this (and your) special place on Saturdays. What do you think?


So would you like to post a MAXINE cartoon on Saturday with me each week? The only thing I ask is that you link back to me in your post.


**Don't forget to give credit to both the cartoonist, John Wagner, and Hallmark, Inc.

See how I did it above.


If you do want to join me, great! Just grab a cartoon from the web or scan it in and post it on your blog on Saturday.

I'll put up a Mr. Linky and you can sign in and leave a comment as is the custom with all blog memes...


Keep in mind you can use the Mr. Linky widget. Just go to Mr. Linky, click on widget, click Blogger (if you are a Blogger user), click on the original Auto-linkies, select a meme by clicking on "Maxine on Saturday", then generate the code. If you have trouble let me know and I'll see if I can step you through it in an e-mail.

OR just click on the "Get code" below and see if that works...

Before I leave you I have a question to ask you about Maxine:
She's always got a pooch with her, what's his name?

That is one wonderful cartoon! I love it. I know a Maxine or two, but then don't we all :-).

Missing it for this week as I wanted my "Take This Tune" to run all weekend so people have time to enjoy all the links. Maxine is great and I'll jump in next week.

That's a great idea, that's one of the best cartoons I know ! I will try to participate but I am not sure if I find enough cartoons, not that we all have the same.
