Since the greatest movie ever made was released in 1947, it must be kind of depressing for everyone making movies since then to know they’re only hope is “2nd best”.
This seemed appropriate for the times as the “impeachment proceedings” appear to me to just be a Rorshach test for the voting public (with no right answer).
When this came out in the paper, it was a week before Thanksgiving, which means it shows up on-line on the actual holiday. That was not on purpose. I was just too lazy to read a calendar until it was too late.
We had some kale chips recently that were actually pretty good. My wife tried to make some at home and, while tasty, just couldn’t get them as crisp as the store-bought ones.
I had to explain this one to my sons because they didn’t realize that NBC symbol was supposed to be a peacock. Look at it: it only looks like one to those of us who know what it morphed from.
I actually sent two versions of this strip to the newspapers. In the other version, Tuttle’s words in the last panel were large (in case the small lettering wasn’t legible when the strip was reduced down for the papers). The one newspaper I heard from used the small print version. Shortly after drawing this strip, we went to a church party where someone had set up cornhole and they put the boards way further away than we’re used to playing. I felt like Phydeaux.
As a kid, I wasn’t a Baptist (still not), but I used to wonder why verses other than the 1st, 2nd and last were in the songs since no one (that I could tell) ever sang them.
