Like the story about Nicky Hilton, first husband of Elizabeth Taylor and heir to the Hilton Hotel fortune. One day he ran into a friend who said I heard you bought a baseball team last year and made a million bucks. Nicky responded that it wasn’t him, but his brother Barron. And it wasn’t a baseball team, but a football team. And he hadn’t made a million, but rather lost a million. Other than that, Nicky continued, you have the story exactly right.

I knew an elderly man who felt cheated if a comic had less than the standard 4 panels. Well, I don’t think he’d feel cheated with this comic.

Jeff, that’s why you should always have a pencil and paper around, then you won’t get thumped so much ;)

In Walnut Creek Calif in the 1950’s I had Yellowstone 4, now its 934. " Pennsylvania 65000" would not be a Glenn Miller hit under 736….

Why isn’t the Sunday version of M&J printed? It is in the Espanol edition. Perhaps the Sunday version is too violent and, nowadays, not funny.
