Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for November 25, 2008

This is just wrong in so many ways.

Sam is looking a bit old to be playing with dolls.

Is it the bride of Chucky?

Maybe a punch to the nose button.

I believe he’s a professor at a major university, not sure which, but surprisingly I don’t think it’s either Bob Jones U. or Oral Roberts U.

Wildmustang: Sam is the daughter. The father is B.D. He’s based on Brian Dowling, who was Yale’s quarterback when Garry Trudeau was a student at that university.

I believe the word for “artificial leg” you’re looking for is “prosthetic”.

B.D. is also a Viet Nam vet.

Sam has Zonker as a role model. She ain’t ever growing up.

You know what….a sarah palin doll with actual quotes from the campaign trail would be the “tickle me elmo” toy of the year. That toy might even be able to solve the resession, with the money it would generate. I would wrestle someone on the ground for one of those!!!

I believe the word for “artificial leg” you’re looking for is “prosthetic”. Yes you’re right! The father is B. D. not Sam. My apologize for mistake of that names. OOPS! Yes that was what I tried to think of that work for fake leg to put in B. D.’s “the amputee’s leg”, “prosthetic.” Thanks! :-)
