So-o-o-o-o which side did it first? Seems the first one of these I ever read, the stone was sent by Peter. Or did he just collect them as they washed ashore and reuse them?
Just saw a Dick Van Dyke rerun last night – Richie told Laura he wanted his “rock that doesn’t sink.” She said, “here it is dear, and it’s call a cork!”

If he’s so excited about inventing the wheel, then he must be in ecstatic seventh heaven since 2 days ago they had already invented the car.

Not only do they float. But they seem to have some navigational power as well.

Okay, they’ve had the wheel since this strip began (pretty much), so how can it be “new”?
