Davis' childhood on a farm parallels the life of his cartoon character Garfield's owner, Jon Arbuckle, who was also raised on a farm with his parents and a brother, Doc Boy. Jon, too, is a cartoonist, and also celebrates his birthday on July Davis attended Ball State University. While attending Ball State, he became a member of the Theta Xi fraternity. He earned the dubious honor of earning one of the lowest cumulative grade point averages in the history of the university, an honor incidentally shared with Late Show host David Letterman. Davis as of resides in Muncie, Indiana, where he and his staff produce Garfield under his company, Paws, Inc. He was married to Carolyn, a singer and elementary teacher whom he met while both were attending college, and has a son named James with her. However, the couple divorced, and Davis since has been married to Jill, Paws' senior vice president of licensing, who has worked there approximately 25 years. Ironically, Davis did not own cats when he started Garfield because of Carolyn's allergies, but they owned a Labrador retriever named Molly. Books by Jim Davis.

  • 86 the Special
    Eighty-Six the Special by ML Kennedy 2018 [email protected] INT. DINER - NIGHT The diner is slightly dirty and mostly empty. A BUSBOY (19) is wiping down booths with a well-worn towel and a WAITRESS (40) is marrying bottles of ketchup. A BEARDED MAN (40) is sitting by himself in a large booth. He is in a back corner of the diner, but still has a good view of the front window. He is wearing a hoodie, dark glasses and a hat, as though he were in a poker tournament or wearing some sort of low-key disguise. The man pushes his cup of coffee to the edge of the table. The waitress looks annoyed. She removes the carafe from the warmer, walks over to the man's table and fills his cup with dark, burnt-looking coffee. She speaks as she pours. WAITRESS The kitchen is closing soon. It's kinda now or never if you want anything. BEARDED MAN You have waffles? WAITRESS Only on Sunday mornings. BEARDED MAN What about a Monte Cristo? WAITRESS I don't know what that is. BEARDED MAN Well, what do you have here? The waitress looks down at the menu resting on the table directly in front of the man, and stifles a sigh as best she can. WAITRESS Burgers, hot dogs, soups, salads, omelettes, pancakes, cottage cheese, toast, fruit cups, pudding, baklava, ice cream and probably something else I'm forgetting. BEARDED MAN Pizza? (CONTINUED) Created using Celtx 2. CONTINUED: (2) WAITRESS Nope. BEARDED MAN Can you come back? WAITRESS I can, but by that point I will not be able to offer you food.

  • The Objects Within: an Applied OOO Literary Criticism
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Matthew J. Dodson for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on May 14, 2014 Title: The Objects Within: An Applied OOO Literary Criticism Abstract approved: _______________________________________________________________________________ Raymond J. Malewitz For centuries, continental philosophy has clung to the belief that the world only meaningfully exists through human perception—that, in other words, when a tree falls in the forest, it does not make a sound. Literary theory, which has strong roots in continental philosophy, followed suit, remaining tied to humanism even as philosophy has begun its “posthuman turn” to admitting nonhuman actants into philosophic consideration. This thesis attempts to reconcile literary criticism with the posthuman turn, considering nonhuman objects at work in literary texts and demonstrating the ways that those objects can reflect back to us the limits of our own subjectivity, and in the process can open up new ways of ethical being-in-the- world. In particular, I take up a variety of posthumanist theories, including speculative realism (Quintin Meillassoux), object-oriented ontology (Graham Harman, Timothy Morton, and Ian Bogost), vibrant materialism (Jane Bennett), and actor-network theory (Bruno Latour), all of which reject the notion that the world only exists as it is perceived by humans, instead insisting that, though we as humans can never objectively know what the world is like outside of our perception, this does not mean that we cannot speculate about this very real world. I apply these theories to a selection of literary texts, each of which demonstrates that, though the field of posthuman philosophy is relatively new, literature has been post-humanist for decades and nonhuman objects have long played important roles in literature.

  • Apropiación, Traslación Y Substitución De Cómicos Y De Personajes Cómicos Y De Cómics
    Quaderns de Filologia. Estudis literaris. Vol. XIII (2008) 223-252 “¡ESTE MONIGOTE ES MÍO!”: APROPIACIÓN, TRASLACIÓN Y SUBSTITUCIÓN DE CÓMICOS Y DE PERSONAJES CÓMICOS Y DE CÓMICS Juan José Calvo García de Leonardo Universitat de València 0. IN T RODUCCIÓN Peter Newmark –que no creía en la ciencia traductológica, en la Übersetzungswissenschaft1– llegó a decir, hace años, que, si en algún caso era evidente la acientificidad de la traducción, ese era en el de la versión de los nombres propios. Si por “científico” hemos de entender –como es error común– “matemáticamente enunciable y demostrable”, entonces el británico tenía toda la razón. Y, en tanto, los nombres propios deberían ser los translemas más sencillos de trasponer, puesto que, “opacos”, no nos permitirían ambicionar un mas-allá de lo que nos muestran; pero objetivamente –y muchas veces por su propia falta de referente extralingüístico– son de los mas difíciles de verter a la L2, la lengua meta. Y si ello es así con lo nombres propios en general, el problema se agudiza cuando nos adentramos en el campo cinematográfico y, en especial, en el de los tebeos y los dibujos animados, indistintamente de su carácter: infantil, juvenil o adulto. Como cualquiera puede deducir de un vistazo somero a los títulos y los a.k.a cinematográficos en las diferentes lenguas y tuvimos ocasión de observar de pasada (Calvo, 2000), la versión de los títulos cinematográficos se desempeña en la más absoluta anomia2. Y no solamente en castellano, por supuesto. La apropiación, la traslación y la substitución, las tres opciones que veremos más adelante, se suceden o alternan de manera absolutamente 1 “In spite of the claims of Nida and the Leipzig translation school (...) there is no such thing as a science of translation and never will be” (1973: 9).

  • Garfield Demo Url
    Garfield demo url http://content.uclick.com/content/ga.html He’s a wisecracking, nap-taking, coffee-guzzling, lasagna-loving, Monday- hating, dog-punting, spider-whacking, mailman-mauling fat cat. He’s Garfield, the world’s most hilarious feline! Born in the kitchen of Mamma Leone’s Italian restaurant in 1978, Garfield has grown into a worldwide (and we do mean wide) celebrity. His antics with his feckless owner, Jon Arbuckle, his drooling doggy pal, Odie, and his beloved teddy bear, Pooky, bring daily laughs to millions of newspaper readers worldwide. But what’s so appealing about a tubby tabby with a rude attitude? What makes GARFIELD so lovable? Creator Jim Davis explains GARFIELD’s over- whelming popularity: "We’re made to feel guilty about being overweight, oversleeping and not exercising," says Davis. "Garfield’s out there as our champion, saying, ‘Go ahead! Have dessert, sleep in, who needs sweat?’" People also identify with, and revel in, Garfield’s sassy brand of humor. This cat is quick-witted – and the first to admit it. He never hesitates to say the things that people – young or old – would love to say. But Garfield is not feature type all sass and sarcasm; he also has a soft side. He really loves his teddy bear, comic strip Pooky, and deep down, he loves Jon and Odie, too (just not as much as he loves himself, of course). Whether he’s feeding his face, snatching a snooze frequency or just spouting a one-liner, Garfield is always a classic – and classics are 7x / week always in style.
