Drew: Everything's different now, isn't it? Alex: Sure is. Drew: For me, too, actually. Alex: How so? Drew: Well, I also have some big news... Zipper: You sure we want to be interrupting this? Jeff: No worries-- people love mailbag week! Zipper: Oh. I'd not herd that.

They don’t need a mail bag when they’ve only got to read the comments here. Besides, who spends 48 cents for snail mail letters anymore ?

Drew’s “big news” — she’s lez?

Looks like “the kids” are taking over.
keenanthelibrarian over 11 years ago
I want to hear the mail …
vwdualnomand over 11 years ago
it’s like the local news interrupting a season finale, because there is a thunderstorm in the middle of nowhere.
mcmc over 11 years ago
She’s selling ova…

Until tomorrow— same bat channel, same bat time…
Tigrita over 11 years ago
She’s gay, and this is an absolutely spectacular callback to when Mark came out on radio and Zonker interrupted the broadcast from the mail silo. And she’s gonna marry Roz and live happily ever after. Oh, and Zip and Jeff took over because Alex is the official main character now.I could not be more excited about this storyline right now.

Maybe Drew is “coming out of the closet”?
summerdog86 over 11 years ago
I am also thinking along the same lines as Dylan Thomas is.

Still, too damned expensive ! It will probably be 47 cents by July !
Patrick Hunt Premium Member over 11 years ago
Agh! Damn you, Trudeau!

probably the one of the worst, is the time brett favre flew to nyc to become a jet.

OK, first, Jeff, even if people love it, it’s not polite to interrupt. Second, e-mail is mail, too, so it doesn’t have to be snail mail. And last, I just love Zipper’s formal response: “Oh, I had not heard that.”

“Still waiting for some honesty from the Obama administration regarding BENGHAZI and the COVER-UP.”
And how do YOU, pal Cal, distinguish honesty from dishonesty? Are you going to wait till the Lord comes?
rvonluchen over 11 years ago
Mail bag week. I deeply love mail bag week.
pawpawbear over 11 years ago
Still waiting for you to uninsert your head… how do you breathe in there?>>Forget about it. Cal has a chronic case of rectalcranial inversion. Which results in occular fecalitis. I think he uses a breathing tube.
lindz.coop Premium Member over 11 years ago
I think it’s more like the Trudeau pay-back for some of the snarky comments he has to endure. At least he hasn’t thrown in the towel yet like some of the other artists.
Just wondering what Benghazi and whatever cover-up has to do with this comic strip.

I think that Drew’s picked her specialty, and it’s pediatrics!
