Both of them have been in prison. Snoop was in and out in the late ’80s and early ’90s, including a conviction for felony drug possession and possession for sale.
Nah, pine is pretty light, and that’s a pretty small one. Based on the scale of Fritzi and the pipe it’s maybe 3 feet across and 7 feet high, which was about the size of my Christmas tree this year. Holding from the middle, I could easily lift it with one hand. Fritzi’s lifting it with two hands from the end, with the other end still laying on the ground.
According to Zonker in the strips that were rerun on December 31 and January 1, Old Surfer Dude is actually 87 here! That would mean he was born around 1915, and would’ve been about 59 when Happy Days premiered. Which, of course, only further supports your point.
Of course, it ALSO means that when he appeared in a new strip back on October 13 he was around 109 years old, so all these estimates should be taken with a grain of (sea) salt.
So Old Surfer Dude was most recently seen in the non-rerun strips just a couple of months ago, on October 13, 2024. Just recently in the reruns Zonker said he was 87 years old in 2002. Assuming the characters are aging in real time, as has generally been the case, that would make him 109 in his most recent appearance. Looking good, and still surfing!
Sluggo, you need a better clock. This has a I at the XII position and has hands of equal length, very confusing!
