Life's Like That

Life's Like That was a gag panel by Fred Neher which found humor in life's foibles. Spanning five decades -- from October 1, 1934 to August 20, 1977 — the panel was initially distributed by Consolidated News Features, and later by the Bell-McClure Syndicate and the United Feature Syndicate.

Publication history
Neher had drawn a comic strip, Goofey Movies, for five years (1925-1930), running until 1977, when Neher retired. He stopped doing the Sunday half-page in October 1972. Doug Sweet, of The Montreal Gazette, recalled that his newspaper ran ''Life's Like That'' when it carried no other syndicated gag panels or comic strips: ==Archives==
Archives
During the 1950s and 1960s, Neher taught cartooning at the University of Colorado for 12 years, and he donated his ''Life's Like That'' cartoons to the University of Colorado Library Archives (where they fill 36 linear feet). As he described it, "Univ. of Colo. ask to have all my original drawings for safe keeping ... came in a truck and left me only my shorts." ==References==
