    There’s more to it than that. Notice that the high-value letters are on one side of the tracks, and the single-point letters are all on the other. Plus, the neighborhoods match the letter types.

    This must be what Hardscrabble Rd. in Columbia, SC looks like.

    Wow, good thing this looks like a nice, safe place, even the poor part of town. There are a lot of places in the world where that drunken R would’ve been rolled.

    Another superior gag; this comic rarely fails to bring VERY funny cerebral humor to my newspaper (in this case, my computer — get WITH it, Seattle Times!). And yet I’m sure a great many folks walked away shaking their heads…

    It’s a good thing “U” & “I” aren’t there!

    Looks like some of them live a hardscrabble life.
