Transcript:
Alice: If I get something big for Christmas, you can have the box it comes in to make a life-size diorama, or whatever. Petey: Gee, you're awfully thoughtful. Alice: Can you say that again, but louder and not as sarcastically, in case Santa's paying attention? Pete: Gee, you're thoughtfully awful! Alice: Great! Thanks. Petey: You bet!

A nice little switcheroo there Petey. Best hope Alice doesn’t pick up on it.

Do kids still have imaginations. The ones I know don’t know how to have fun if they don’t have a video monitor of some kind in their hands.

@zsteelie Thank you. You are a comics fan after my own heart.
That is such a beautiful observation. And what makes comics beautiful.
I missed that the first time I read it. When I came back I reread it and it made me appreciate this amazing comic and cartoonist again.
