    Only part?!? Gertie had planned to get a new pig sty with that loot.

    Get a lawyer! It’s his word against yours that the money was not legitimate winnings.

    Don’t forget, Tracy gets 20 per cent.

    That money is evidence. And as such will be impounded for trial.

    B.O.’s system sounds fascinating. I’ll have my brother-in-law try it.

    Now that the Author has the Dick Tracy Yatch drifting in the doldrums, and note, the weather report indicates it will not be going anywhere until next week Saturday the 18th - We can write this off to “planning” time. An anchored script as the Writer “ponders” exactly what is going to happen next.

    In the meantime “morrow” has pulled our attention back to the Author’s Kamikaze devotee Mathew P.Hansel who some months ago, supporting the Author’s “right” to be “wrong”, did an “Edward Nuremoh” and CRASHED his valued membership here while hailing “DIKIHITO” the Imperial Emperor of Naperville, shouting “Banzai” and unleashing some “choice”, desperate suicidal language.

    He even terrified Go Comics by stating that he would NOT “launch” his new comic strip here ! If nothing else, I admired his theatrical flair which seemed to ignite a plethora of posting on the board. And back then he actually led by example, holding the record for the most posts in a day ! His elbow-in-your-nose style must have caused some degree of embarassment to his Woodstock colleague (who still posts here). But no great harm !

    Like Itchy Oliver I know he’s scratching to come back and on this Board where “comment” holds more substance and interest than the Strip itself. On return, he may even qualify for the “Energizer Bunny” Award

    So if Gertie’s on the phone in panel 3, who is B.O. talking to in panel 1?

    You might be surprised to learn (or not?) that MPH reads ONLY the strip and never the comments here. He receives an omnibus email of Tracy and a number of other strips each morning.

    I like your Bret Maverick avatar, Charlie. I still remember the opening scene of the first episode.

    At least, not that you could SEE ! (?) If indeed he doesn’t, I’d call that - “welcome restraint” ! Not an area in which he had previously displayed any level of expertise.

    It’s good to believe that he is finally starting to mature, and speaks volumes for what I suspect, are private “lectures” you may well have given him, in “Anger Management” ! (?)

    Like so many things, it’s best summed up in an analogy. It’s like an alcoholic hanging out in a bar every day after work. We’re colleagues, sure, but there are no lectures in either direction, Sydney. He has every right to profess whatever he likes, independent of the CGDT Museum, as do I. You can debate the manner in which he expresses himself, but I doubt you’d debate his right to say what he says. Disagreements in a group setting are inevitable.

    We all have different manners about us, don’t we? Yet, any one of us do not perfectly represent any cause we believe in or support, other than ourselves, right? Then we each hold ourselves accountable to our Maker, right?

    Grokenstein, do you have a website where your artwork is posted so we can see it?

    BB, old pal–I’m well and I hope for you the same. When I get called to NYC next, I’ll be looking you up for that coffee klatch, indeed!

    How is it that there is time to draw a litte candy dish in panel 3, but not enough time to look at YESTERDAY’s strip to draw the King of Clubs’ dashiki consistently? If you put these strips back-to-back in a flip book, it would be an actionless, stationary plot, where the characters keep changing clothes in random locations.

    “Grokenstein, do you have a website where your artwork is posted so we can see it?”

    Guess that means no, huh?
