Transcript:
Michael: Dad, when you were a kid, did you have a dog? John: Uh-huh... his name was "Wimpy." Michael: Wimpy? John: You know, like the character in the Popeye cartoons? The one who liked hamburgers! Michael: Oh. Yeah. Why doesn't Mom want a dog? John: I think she's being practical, Michael. If we had a dog, she's the one who'd have to look after it. And since she's at home all day while I'm working... it stand to reason, doesn't it. Michael: I guess. I know the reason... and I can't stand it.

Perhaps Elly doesn’t want the puppy around in the house while she raised her two kids because she would not handle with the puppy. You know what I mean!

I notice that the daily FBorFW strips here are in color, but at the FBorFW site itself, they are in B&W. I like the larger format at at the other site, though.

Susan001 What I mean is that Elly would not handle the puppy because she did not want to clean up after the puppy had pees and poos. Get it! In the real life, all of those people can handle with the puppies

And I keep saying you have to wait a year to be cannon. Elizabeth has to be at least two before Farley is on the scene. Auggh!!!!

There was a Dave Berg joke in his “Lighter Side of..” MAD Magazine. A wife is saying to her husband that she has had it with the unruly behavior of both the kids and the dog. The husband proposes his solution for both: “Send the dog to camp and the kids to obedience school!”
