About Tauy Creek
Tauy Creek (pronounced /toy/) is a tributary of Ottawa Creek in Franklin County, Kansas. It was named for John Tecumseh "Tauy" Jones, who lived along the creek and helped found Ottawa University. The online version of Tauy Creek was founded in 2008 and features commentary on the comic strip The Born Loser, originally called "Losers Are Made, Not Born", and other features, like Story Series, until 2019. The Born Loser returned in late 2020, and classic strips starting in 1965 would begin in 2022.
