Yes, my sister is one. But of course, in Leo’s case, it’s complicated.
Packratjohn Premium Member about 12 years ago
I almost believe Leo set Zonker up to be the straight man on this one. For someone with a stutter, he has perfect timing.

Yes, Susan, we not only exist we’re out to save the world!

Have you ever noticed, that long-married couples have a tendency to finish each other’s sentences?

I’m so glad that there’s nothing important going on in the world for Mr. Trudeau to comment on. But that’s what happens when a president creates world peace and prosperity.

Leo is the best character GT has thought up since his original core characters

I think GTphile means that Trudeau is the writing genius and and we get to post comments about it daily. Win, win situation.

TBI is more than just “a stutter”. I have the patience of a chipmunk on amphetamines, and actually conversing with a young man yesterday who has severe TBI was hard for ME (har!) waiting for him to process, control, and respond, without me “finishing his sentence”. But, I’ve been around folks with TBI for decades, and my PTSD is a “minor glitch” by comparison.
Which our troops ARE the most important thing we have for a topic, THANK YOU GARRY, for never letting it “slide”. As to hate, stupidity, and their bridesmaid intolerance, the wedding here sure brings out the worst on the right side of the audience.
The Orange Mailman about 12 years ago
Finally, a punch line on Doonesbury that made me laugh out loud.
summerdog86 about 12 years ago
Well, the double “and” was a typo. The “win, win situation”, I meant.
