Does the DEA know about your little under the counter “sunshine running?”

There’s a few places back East that would pay more than 10 clams for some sunshine.

Under the counter over the weather? Shocking!

It comes in these magic mushrooms. You’re own personal sunshine.

Was ‘Ed’ a reference to something known at the time and forgotten now? Are the first two panels referencing dialogue from something else?

Trying to pump sunshine up his you-know-where?

Maybe “Ed” is a localized “generic” name, like in my area, “Jack” and “Buster” were…

or…

It’s an insult: Er***ile Dysfunction… ☺

That’s Mister Ed to you, Wilbur.

That should be “moonshine”.

I thought only TV evangelists “pumped sunshine”…
