Boopsie, don’t get in the way of love.

Cop wives don’t always survive that kind of talk.

Who didn’t see that coming?

It’s bad form to comment on a lady’s outfit, Ray.

Great line. I’ll try that one.

“You were doing 80 in a 40 mph zone!” “Well, how else was I going to meet you?”

Well, cops do meet the most interesting people. I suppose the ones they don’t arrest are fair game.

Funny reality! ;o}

Followed by ?, Pull Off ?

Cop is driving along when he sees a blonde (you know this won’t end well) knitting while behind the wheel of her car…with the car in motion. He motions for her to roll down her window and yells, “PULL OVER!” To which she smiles and says, “No, it’s a scarf!”

If this strip was current, Boopsie would be instagraming pictures of her post-baby body.

Panel 3 introduces some interesting structural questions.

blink How did Boopsie get her hourglass figure back so fast after having a baby? Or did a whole lot of time elapse between the birth and these strips in real time when they first ran??

Actually, his first words would be either:

“Licence and registration.” or

“Do you know why I pulled you over?”

‘Pull over’ is a non-verbal cue of lights and siren.
