    Two possible levels of meaning here: 1) Influencers seem to exercise great power, but 2) Maybe they have no more real influence than raindrops “deciding” to turn into snowflakes when they’re really forced to by the temperature. Very deep…..

    “Pro” and “Con,” huh? I must be slipping — it took me three minutes to get it….

    This may be a stupid question, but inquiring minds want to know….. Can anyone tell me why Shoe no longer appears in color? Thanks for your help!

    Excellent idea!

    This strip must be a gift for Boomers like me. Does MLB still schedule doubleheaders any more? If not, it’s their loss. I can still remember Ernie Banks shouting, “Hey! Let’s play two today!”

    Never thought I’d criticize an A ‘n’ J storyline, but if Arlo were a reader of his own comic strip, he’d say, “Enough time on this subplot — let them buy the house and move already!”
