The first rule of Boxing Day: you do not talk about Boxing Day….

For us uneducated Americans: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_Day

My brother’s ready to take him on!

He’s in training for when the stores open at the maul, I mean, mall, on Monday and it is Returns Day.

Punch her anyway!

Boxing day is my birthday (and my brother’s too, he’s three years older than me to the day), and when I was a kid I was always disappointed that Dad wouldn’t take me to a boxing match

Winslow is a Canuck.

Boxing Day: Seems like the perfect day for folksinger Gordon Bok to do a concert.

I think he is dressed correctly for the unruly return crowds. I know it used to be a big mess.

Wow! An actual indoor scene!

Juxtaposition with Rae the Doe at Comics Kingdom.

Same punchline.

Yesterday, Sadie and I had a traditional Jewish Christmas:

Chinese food and a movie.

Because COVID, the food was delivered.

And the movie was on NETFLIX

And it was a great one – of particular interest to readers of PRICKLY CITY:

DON’T LOOK UP

Astonishingly good!!!

Every dog has his day, and today is Murray’s, because he’s apparently part Boxer.

What’s her problem? There are boxes there, too. Can’t she “settle for both”?
