I want to give continued props to most every comic printed before about 1970, but particular thumbs-up for newcomer Gay and her Gang and good ol' Feiffer. Please keep posting them. Gay is well-drawn and funny - this is what 9CL desperately wishes it actually were. Being drawn by a woman probably helps, huh? I can't tell you just how skeeved I felt when I learned "Brooke Eldowney" was a man. And Feiffer shows us (mostly) timeless commentary.

Thanks, I appreciate that. Let it never be said I can't bring the Gay.

From wikipedia: "The lyrics are brief and are dominated by the repetition of the title words and the nonsense refrain, "floy-doy, floy-doy, floy-doy". The original lyric, recorded in January 1938, was "flat foot floozie with a floy floy"; Vocalion, however, objected to the word "floozie",[3] meaning a sexually promiscuous woman, or a prostitute. The second recording in February changed the word to "floogie". In the second part of the title phrase, "floy floy" was slang for a venereal disease, but the term was not widely known and failed to catch the attention of censors.[8] It was regarded as nonsense and came to have positive connotations as a consequence of the song.[9]"

Life In Hell

About the constant gas masks in these strips - during the first Gulf War you saw soldiers and, at times, reporters, with gas masks quickly placed on. There was a fear of a chemical attack from Saddam Hussein.

If you were watching then (and, well, had been born at that time), it wasn't uncommon to see CNN reporters in the field - I think Peter Arnett - quickly put one on when the sirens went off in Baghdad.


Aaaand with this strip, Life in Hell disappeared from The News (Boca Raton) for three months. I honestly thought they had dropped it for good, and that would have sucked as I don't see any other sources, but it picks back up after the strips turn less political.

I think that's the implication; I'm wondering what on earth the guy was teasing(?) the kid for, though. Is that an old expression or something?
