   One of Thompson’s great punch lines.

   I wish he were still among us with his brilliant insights, but I’m glad he left some behind…

   2. If I’m not mistaken (always a possibility), this is one of the relatively few strips with two appearances of Fuzzy. (The umbrella guy is a favorite part of “Bozo” for me.)

   There seems to be a missing word (“are”) in panel 3.

   Three rocks borrowed from Ernie Bushmiller …

   My first thought was that she’s lucky that the newspaper is still being delivered to her house. In my area, our local paper (a well-known national one) decided last year to switch from home carrier delivery to mail delivery. The change effectively turned a morning paper into an afternoon paper, much to my chagrin…

   (Yes, I know I can read the paper online in the morning, but to me, it’s just not the same reading experience.)

   Back in the days when J. Edgar Hoover required FBI agents to be an attorney, an accountant, or a cartoonist…

   (Kidding aside, I believe they actually did have to be either an attorney or an accountant.)

   “Y[es]” is the right answer.

   Interesting that Nancy imagines Sluggo making some semi-profound points, just so she can counter them with her usual unbearable negativity.

    Thanks — great strip!
