Back to B.C. by Johnny Hart for January 25, 2016

Saw a quarter inch off of Wiley’s peg leg every day while he’s sleeping. He’ll think he’s getting shorter.

Wiley is not very nice. What a terrible thing to say/

Coin, what’s a coin? I thought they used clams for currency.

Wiley should go hunt Road Runners…

Is that why my wallet feels empty???

Interesting. In this strip Hart recycles a gag from 4/1/58 where Wiley invents the word “nothing” as “a 3 inch circle with a 2 inch hole in it”. Even the artwork in every panel is similar.http://www.gocomics.com/back-to-bc/2015/10/28

Wouldn’t he actually think he was getting taller?

A 2 inch coin with a 3 inch hole in it possible. Depends on if one measurement is the radius and the other measures the circumference.
