Agnes by Tony Cochran for March 22, 2025

happy dreaming, Agnes.

THAT is the definition of " between a rock and a hard place".

So, things are looking up then.

Maybe Trout can start dating that rich kid from the Monty strip?

Get the truck out of the ditch.

To the tune of Black Dog:

Hey hey Grandma what we got to lose

Let’s blow this place and go on a cruise

Grandma says she gotta work and I got school

Only seventeen bucks don’t be a fool

I said crackers from the dollar store

Will satisfy me won’t ask for more

Grandma says the truck is stuck in a ditch

Now leave me alone you little Lich

My wife said that to me last week. She found a 16 day cruise for $1,200 each. We leave the middle of next month. Gotta love her.

Looks like we better start a GoFundMe for Agnes and Grandma!

Must have had a bad snow storm on the way home from work.

So, that’s a yes, right?

Good fortune is smiling!

Much of the time this strip is just the same story over and over: Agnes hits on some new project which is clearly doomed to failure. Every once in a while, we have a strip like this one, which is heartbreaking and funny at the same time.

And you think that you have problems……

Hedge funds are buying up all the mobile home parks and greatly increasing lots rents. The last chance for any type of home ownership for the low income folks.

Why does Grandma have to be so dang negative?

“generic cheddar spread,” otherwise known as cheese-colored elmer’s glue… ☺

is that one of those extra-thick headlight glass walls that they don’t make any more?
