For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for August 28, 2017

yeah, someday (Lawrence in a different way though)

I guess it’s time for that father/son talk when Mike gets home.

Here we say our final farewells to two different characters:

1. First is the unnamed big blond kid with glasses that was Mike’s bunk mate. I had wondered if Lynn Johnston would drop a note about him, explaining how she was trying him out as a new character for the strip, or anything at all about him. Goodbye!

2. Michael as the poor man’s Dennis the Menace. Mike the prankster is gone forever. Goodbye!

Great comeback, one they don’t expect. :D

Immaturity is doing something stupid to entertain your friends.. Maturity is doing something stupid because SHE wants you to do it!

Great line, Mike. You’ve grown in my eyes ! ! !

Mike’s mom needs to hire Jed Clampett to “have a looong talk with that boy!”

Michael has just matured from a tweenager to a teenager !

Brilliant. I love watching him grow up (slowly).

We saw Martha came in on the same bus with these guys at the beginning of this camp story, so I am not sure why Mike wouldn’t just sit with her on the bus ride back.

When I was in college, one of my roommates had a very strong opinion of what made a person smart, and what made a person dumb. Anyone who shared his opinions or interests was smart, everyone who disagreed with him was stupid. At the beginning of the year it was his opinion that anyone who would throw away good money to keep a girlfriend was stupid, then he got a girlfriend and decided that anyone who didn’t spend money to keep his girlfriend happy was stupid.

Good one Mike
