    “Tom, I really don’t think you need to spend an entire day just to explain yesterday’s strip. I mean, most people who read it know who Davy Cr-”

    “Um, excuse me. Dan. Dan. Which of us was nominated for a Pulitzer? Who was that?”

    “… you.”

    “That’s right. And who’s writing was the reason for that Pulitzer nomination. Who?”

    “…yours.”

    “See, you’re so smart, Dan! I’m glad we had this chat.”

    “Okay, he reminds me of how I used to kill raccoons and sell their pelts during the Davy Crockett craze! Happy?”

    What’s really alarming is that Crankshaft must have examined that raccoon’s genitals to see if it was male or female.

    This is NOT “ONE BIG HAPPY”,where all the nasty-tempered animals like the little girl(and nobody else).

    Wait’ll the garbage cans are brought out to the curb and Davey shows his true nature

    Amazing how women can insult men, but God help you if a man insults a woman.

    Ed’s a veteran of WW II, Korea, Viet Nam, the Gulf War, depending on what year this is. But despite that, “Rocky” is a much better name. That song cam out over 50 years ago!

    However, he wore a racoon skin cap in the TV series. An ancestor apparently….

    Anybody else notice that “Davy” shrank by about half between panels one and three?

    “Crankshaft” is turning into James Allen-period “Mark Trail,” with the photo-realistic clip art. Krankus already has Mark’s penchant for blowing things up…

    Fun fact: The Davy Crockett was a light-weight gun on a tripod that fired a small tactical nuclear weapon.

    Lillian is startled that Cranky actually knew a real historical fact beyond sports stats.

    Crankshaft making sense is usually a sign you should order some potassium cyanide from Amazon.

    Okay, points for the raccoon. When I was a lad my uncle found three orphaned kits and their late mother on the grounds of the museum where he worked and raised them for a couple of months before letting them back into the woods. You haven’t lived until you’ve had a baby raccoon climb on top of your head.
