“Geek’s Neck” was a Hawaiian territory?—If so, it’s original name was more like “Ano Kama Waha” (Odd Person Neck).

that shirt doesn’t work on dad, according to my son, you have to be Sumo size and wear long shorts with black knee socks to pull off that look

Petey is such an interesting collection of contradictions. Won’t let his food touch. Thinks sneezing is “demonstrative and germy,” yet revels in ghost stories. That’s it. Petey is the first comic character to go sentient.
