   Why does she keep saying her seats are in a booth? The only “booth” in a theater is the space way in the back where the lighting and sound operators sit. Is she buying box seats? “Box seats” is a pretty well-known term.

   The portrait with hair and no glasses is not Kolbe, he looked somewhat more like Romero (balding, glasses). So, still no idea who. Someone worth knowing about, so I hope we find out. Might be a head-smacker (oh, him! yes!)

   What a great Bernie Sanders depiction. That dog has the wonky charisma.

   Wheat flour tortillas make the burrito of sadness. Tortillas should be corn.

   Seattle Times also ran a re-run today. This strip seems mild, I’m surprised.

   It doesn’t make much more sense if it is “elusive.” Or “allusive”

   Awww, not Sam.!They do grow up so suddenly. I was hoping she would keep her mother’s eyes.

   To get the egg out of the bottle:

   Use a long knife to reach into the bottle. Cut the egg into small pieces. Invert bottle, extract any pieces not instantly removed by gravity.

   In the absence of a long knife, a long spoon can be used to muddle the egg to the same end.

   This *is* today’s Ziggy. Maybe the schedules got mixed up, and there will be pants on Ziggy on some other Wednesday.

   I have met Wilson Sr, and he’s cool–he would go along with the pants thing. Either Tom II dropped the ball, or the syndicate messed up.

   I’m OK with Ziggy wearing no pants. I assume he’s built like a Ken doll, but less anatomically accurate. More like a potato, really

   Yes, I came here because of PBS. But I still read it on dead trees.

   Oh, and sweetie cool–Rat’s integrity? Good one! Yes–Ziggy can challenge Rat’s integrity–in a cage match. Finally, an opponent Ziggy can best.
