   I think this was one of those they had only in Spanish and they used auto-translate. I recognize the different word order.

   Hey, I’m ready to return to Killebrew days. We can bring back a younger Walt and Skeezix, and even resurrect Phyllis.

   Lincoln once defended a man who had killed another man’s dog with a pitchfork and claimed self-defense.

   When Lincoln examined the plaintiff, he said, “The defendant killed your dog to defend himself from the attack. That is why he used the pitchfork.”

   The plaintiff answered, “Why did he not come after my dog with the other end of the pitchfork?”

   Lincoln responded, “Why did your dog not come after the defendant with his other end?”

   Jim missed his chance a year or two ago. When Skeezix took him to the Old Comics Home, we thought he would stay there. I even remember one glorious moment when I thought he was about to be reunited with Phyllis. But then the strip turned to a lower level, and went for some short gags, and he just went home.

   I really thought Jim was going to give him a classy exit, and I admit I didn’t want him to — just — die like Phyllis had done. It would have been a nice way to say good-bye.

    I remember hearing about an anti-smoking group that was formed in the 1960s. They were going to call themselves the “League to Save Mankind from Tobacco.” Then they noticed the initials.
