    It’s a sound plan…It reminds me of those ads for executive or management positions for a distribution company. Applicants get all dressed up for their interview, and find out on arrival that they’ll be dropped off in an urban area with a case of toys or trinkets to peddle door to door. Some will take the “position” out of need, some out of embarrassment when they think of the friends and family rooting for them. Some will stay on and later be successful in recruiting the next generation, from whom they’ll earn commissions. The work’s not the sad part to me, just the deceptive lure.

    Jim must be indicating the “Garage” is going under, otherwise why not use one of the many other Wallets for the “Joke”. I am sure Scancarelli remembers how to draw them.

    Number 6, I’m with you. Usually when there is that much attention to detail in a face, it’s a caricature. I just don’t recognize who it might be.
