In other Nancy news, the Tampa Bay Times reports that the rather good Sherman’s Lagoon will replace the probably better Non Sequitur after a reader vote, with temporary replacement Nancy coming … last, just behind the uncommitteds. Ouch.
This is great AND informative AND timely! I’m meeting a friend for lunch. He’s an historian, specialising in world war II. I’ll have to find a way to sneak this fact into our conversation. He’ll be impressed, I’m sure!
(N.B. Sorry about the low profile of late. Had some major [you should excuse the expression] surgery in early March, and only got out of the hospital a few days ago. Still on the mend, and will be for some weeks to come.)
And in a more serious note, a real shortage is happening in Washington DC right now. Reproducing all of those redacted documents, with words, lines, even entire pages blacked out, has seriously depleted the supply of black printer ink, both refill bottles and cartridges.

Surprise twist: the strip from which panel three was taken is real, but it was actually rejected because the punchline involved rickets.

Nancy, you silly twit! Those aren’t rocks! Those are stones!

Jokes on you, Olivia – that is the bare minimum number of rocks needed to represent ‘a ridiculous amount of rocks’.

I’ll let someone else make the Florida Man jokes.

Bill Griffith has sometimes mentioned Bushmiller’s 3-rock style over at Zippy.

Aunt Fritzi would certainly look under any anomalous fourth rock. In her world, that screams out for investigation.

I don’t care who you are, this is funny.

I remember my uncles telling me about rock shortages during the war. So our family moved to the Ozarks….

This strip seems like more than an April 1st gag. It also feels like a little love letter to her readers.

Those groupings of rocks look a little like artist’s misconceptions of what inflatable colonies would look like on the moon, or mars.
