comiCSS #45: Nightmare comicss.art/comics/45/ni... July 18, 2022.– Unfortunately, this comic was based on a true story (partially). IE had reach its end of life date, but we still got requests to support that browser in certain projects. Microsoft didn't support it anymore. We did. #css #cartoon

35 years ago, we saw dolphins in a certain area. We were on a boat and so close we could almost touch them. A year later, we saw dolphins jumping again. This time from the shore. It was amazing. For the past 34 years, every time I walk around that area, I look at the sea hoping to see dolphins.

De la Fuente learned the hard way tonight what most Spaniards (or at least most Atleti supporters) already knew: Morata may be a nice guy, a good player, a great team mate, an amazing businessman... but he is not a soccer star.
