Man: Howie, perhaps it's none of my business, but don't you think it's about time you started looking for a job? I mean, a man's got to have some life's work. Unlike most of your classmates, Howie, you've just wasted your life away. Man: Nonsense! In the last thirty years, I have watched thousands of sunsets; I've painted still-lifes of ferns and Indian corn; I've read the verses of Milton, and I've taken long walks in the Berkshires! What have you done that was so great? Man: Why, Howard, you ol' hippy, you. Man: Damn straight!

I read this strip 40 years ago today and I haven’t re-read it since. I still remember this one as though I read it yesterday. Bless you Howie; you too Gary.
