margueritem says: Sam is looking a bit old to be playing with dolls.
Yea, I noticed it on that strip. Sam is old, because he is a veteran since he was in the war and got injury from bomb. He lost his leg. He had to deal with fake leg (I could not remember the spelling word for fake leg) sorry! :-)
Wildmustang: Sam is the daughter. The father is B.D. He’s based on Brian Dowling, who was Yale’s quarterback when Garry Trudeau was a student at that university.
I believe the word for “artificial leg” you’re looking for is “prosthetic”.
You know what….a sarah palin doll with actual quotes from the campaign trail would be the “tickle me elmo” toy of the year. That toy might even be able to solve the resession, with the money it would generate. I would wrestle someone on the ground for one of those!!!

Yes you’re right! The father is B. D. not Sam. My apologize for mistake of that names. OOPS! Yes that was what I tried to think of that work for fake leg to put in B. D.’s “the amputee’s leg”, “prosthetic.”
Thanks! :-)

I believe he’s a professor at a major university, not sure which, but surprisingly I don’t think it’s either Bob Jones U. or Oral Roberts U.
