WHY ARE THOSE NUDE TODDLERS HAVING INTERCOURSE?

Kim Casali created Love Is… back in the late 1960's when she drew the little pictures as love notes for her husband-to-be, Roberto. Her illustrations were then revealed to the rest of the world when they were first syndicated in 1970.
Since his mother's death in June 1997, Stefano Casali has maintained his mother's legacy of the beloved comic panel.

Born in Wimbledon near London, Casali has spent most of his life in the U.K. After graduation from university, he began a full-time job at Saatchi & Saatchi Advertising in London where he worked on Gillette, Hewlett-Packard and Samsung. Three years later, he went from the sublime at Saatchis to the silly while working on the McDonald's account at Leo Burnett in London.

After the death of his mother, he joined Minikim (named after his mother) and assumed full control of Love Is... whilst maintaining his advertising job in tandem. Since September 1999 he has been dedicated to the feature full-time, working with artist Bill Asprey, who continues to draw the charming little cartoons. Casali said, "It was a great change going from working in big advertising companies to working for myself in a considerably smaller operation, but I would not want to return to the former for all the tea in China."

Today Love Is... is a favorite for millions of loyal readers around the world.

Sear's is selling "Love Is..." panties. I told my wife that they were grounds for divorce.

I had no comment on the pair that made it appear like Snoopy was attempting to jump into someone's vagina.

Weird, I don't remember them being so creepy until her son took over drawing it.

Who was that cranky cartoon lady that used to be on the "funny" Hallmark greeting cards? She wore sunglasses and I think she had a dog?

Thank you! That's who I was thinking of.

Pleasant Plains, that looks more like the Happy Clit Dance that Snoopy's doing.

My mother was wearing a "Love is..." nightie when she gave birth to me.

...a four letter word.

I'd like to thank those depressing office calenders with a quote on them each day.
