   What a coincidence! Not five minutes before I read this strip, I was listening to the 1957 recording “Robert Frost Reads The Poems Of Robert Frost.” 23 poems. And would you believe “Acceptance” was one of them?………………..Okay, it wasn’t. But still, a coincidence!

   What stores? The magazine cannot be found in any store where I live…including a major book store. Can’t even find the Fall Preview issue anymore, which is the only issue I’m interested in. I stopped getting TV Guide when they stopped the local editions.

   Hmm. The walls in Rita’s office have nothing on them. Could it be that they are in transition from one decoration to the next (which I assume Rita has done weekly…or less)? Could it be Rita doesn’t have time to decorate the walls because of all the important work she had to do (—muffled snicker—)? Could it be the blank walls represent what’s actually going on in Rita’s mind? Or could it be that John and Scott didn’t have time to add anything else to the panel as publishing time was fast approaching?
