    Melba has been mayor there for a VERY long time. Reckon nobody else wants the job.

    Maybe Egon himself (or a reasonable facsimile) is in town to negotiate a naming rights deal for a fleet of self-driving electric cars to take over the streets of the Alley.

    - – - – -

    It’s a full plate of classics for the 7th:

    How does Walt fit that huge foot of his all the way into his itty bitty mouth? Skeezix and the Rangers are more into smashmouth as the Wildcat Reds pay a visit.

    It’s Easter, 1868 in Conniption.. and the scenery is lovely. A low key bit of sermonizing at no extra charge.

    Brenda goes out to the park in the middle of the night, expecting her mystery man to be waiting for her, but no soap. Surely he’ll be back at her apartment to sweep her off her feet and take her away la vida loca in Gotham.

    Slim needs to man the pumps when the girls go out to lunch… or does he?

    The Alley name change answer will have to wait a bit longer as I’m sure Mayor Melba don’t be relating town affairs to Ruufy either.

    It’ll work itself out…I’m just happy about an arc with Wallets in it.

    Rufus is not the guy to ask if you want an actual helpful answer.

    Has Walt lost a LOT of weight? And I thought Rufus and Melba were dating?

    Today’s strip deservedly gets called out in the Curmudgeon:

    Man, here’s a story of our modern world for ya: You head down to City Hall, because they’re trying to rename your town, because of woke, and you wanna give those politicians what-for, but then you end up running into some dumb rustic who’s banging the mayor and he wastes your time with a bunch of “Why do we drive on a parkway but park in the driveway” BS. Eventually you get annoyed and give up and go home. This is why ordinary people don’t want to get involved in our civic institutions anymore!

    “Fine” originally meant “fee”. It could mean a punishment, as it does today, but it could also mean, for example, paying for a license.
