I'm busy with too many things, so Dick Tracy is the only strip I read regularly these days.

    She may or may not know who Lee is, but she knows Lee is following her.

    Definitely not C. I like A, but we won’t get that.

    Good morning™, everyone!

    This looks like an “automat” from the last century. Do these things still exist?

    I have a feeling that Lee wants to be seen trailing Sarah.

    I had a feeling that the logo “–30– 4T” was pronounced “thirty-forty” so I’m happy to see that I guessed right on that. Those are pretty hefty payments!

    Emerson’s point, I guess, is that when you receive new information, sometimes you have to change long-held beliefs and not just stick with those beliefs for consistency. I don’t know what Sarah meant by it, but I expect that she misunderstood Emerson, as many people do.

    Good morning™, everyone!

    “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. Speak what you think now in hard words, and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said to-day. — ‘Ah, so you shall be sure to be misunderstood.’ — Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood.”

    — Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Self-Reliance”, Essays: First Series, 1841

    It wouldn’t, in fact, work. There are more people than just Gabriel who know about the evidence. Plus, I’m sure that there are copies of the pictures.

    It’s being framed as behaviour that’s unacceptable in the workplace. There’s no mention of any marital infidelity.
