Figures Walt would be old enough to remember Andy Gump.

I have a Gumps collection; a series of strips leading to the death of Mary Gold.Real soap opera stuff.

Mutt seems annoyed. ✨

Getting close to that moment on “This Is Your Life” where they would reveal the surprise guest. ✨❤️✨

Please, Walt, don’t change the subject. We all know where that went last time.

No one has ever told me that, Walt. But, some have asked if anyone ever told me that.

Forrest Gump the movie character had nothing to do with Andy Gump the comic character. Tom Hanks made the name up when he forgot his line and the director liked it so much he kept it in the film and titled the movie after it.

I don’t know how I missed that!

In Oz a gump is a green-furred, blue-eyed talking moose.

I was scratching my chin over this one

/I’m/ old enough to remember Andy Gump.
