Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 07, 1980

Transcript:

Mark: Mike, do you always use notes when you call a girl on the phone? Mike: Don't you? Mark: Well, no, not ordinarily... Mike: You should try it. I find I have a lot more confidence if I've worked out what I'm going to say in advance. Also, it frees me to think of spontaneous stuff that I can then pepper through the conversation. Mark: Like what? Mike: Oh, baseball scores, quips, stuff from the news - you know, like Johnny Carson does.
