Transcript:
Mom, we've decided that, rather than go back to school, we'd like to do that other thing. That... What? Y'know... They have, like that option where you don't go to school, but it's kinda secret? You and the other smart parents know about it? Oh! That! They quit doing that. She may be on to us. I wish you'd said something before! They just called and said if only they had two more kids, they wouldn't have quit.

I figured he was referring to those at-home public-school-alternative e-learning companies that are constantly advertising on the radio.

I though he was referring to child labor. He is the right size for carrying heavy loads and the little one is the right size for a chimney sweeper.

I’ve noticed that the colorist continues using very nice gradients for the backgrounds. I wonder if the colorist is doing it to acknowledge Greg’s message of appreciation for the particularly nice one on last Friday’s strip. How much lead do the colorists get before the strips are published?

Oh, yeah. The apprentice program. Which would you like? Coal mining or fish gutting? .(I like mom. Nice body. Brains. And an evil sense of humor.)

I left school in 2011.
Toby leaving school would be the best day of his life!
