But when I find them, I really would like to get back into posting them?

Please do :) I've really enjoyed reading DTWOF and the social/political context you provide for the strips has been excellent

Don't think I don't see that your/you're mixup, Beeman

In Luann I'm honestly hoping for a little wisdom fron Ms Phelps to Bernice. I think it will end up being along the lines of "let people figure out who they are and make their own mistakes" but what we all really want is "shut the gently caress up you smarmy sophomore psych major"

50 / 50 It cuts soon back to Wilbur in the water and he has a wacky adventure and learns something when suddenly he's woken up on one of the deck chairs where he passed out by Estelle and they both are more in love than ever.

What's bugging me about current FOOB is the timing. Michael was hella lost so surely it took him a while to get home after his phone call. Did Elly just not say anything to her husband in that time? No "oh Mike called he got terribly lost but he's on his way!" ? Did she not see or sense him working himself into a huge fit? I guess this gives Lynn a chance to set Elly up as Best Martyred Mom going to bat for her poor idiot child, so I shouldn't be that surprised.

Kids start rebelling the second they figure out how to say "no". Usually that's there 2-3rd word after "Mommy" and "more".

The preceding strips went out of their way to show us April was feeling kind of grossed out after listening to a nursery rhyme about swallowing flies and spiders and other fun animals. Even Elly seems to get that April isn't hungry. But April's not going to be able to articulate that so she does the next best thing and gets the offending food out of her field of view.

from 1976, apparently. And the top result for "Micky Mouse phone" so I guess not very obscure, but I've never seen one before.

It can also be seen early on in A Goofy Movie! :eng101:

I know how foolish it is to hope for things in Mary Worth, but my heart really, really wants this to be the lead-up to a storyline about Ian cheating on his wife with his ex-student. It would be the most soap-opera a soap-opera strip has been in, like, a century.

This is pretty much what I'm hoping for too.

I'm still not over that strip where she's peering at them through binoculars going "I SEE YOU!" absolute legend
