   They better be discrete if they know what’s good for them.

   Even with the summer vacation, the boys haven’t forgotten the ”Alice Book of Rules”? LOL

   In CUL-DE-SAC, Alice will always be four, and Petey will always be six, right? It’ll be that creepy time-warp that THE FAMILY CIRCUS children & DENNIS THE MENACE & ZITS are stuck in, right?

    The first 2 panels are so sweet… I think sometimes we forget how much Alice is still a little girl with a loving mum.

    Brought back some sweet memories this morning, Thank You !

    When in doubt, pull a Sgt. Schultz.

    Oh, I thought pulling a Sgt Schultz meant falling down and when trying to get up accidently rocking yourself to sleep.

    Hipster
    “I know nooooothing” and “I see noooothing” were some of Schultz’ more memorable lines on Hogan’s Heroes.

    I wish that Trolls wouldn’t ruin the comment section of a great comic like this with politics.
