Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for June 30, 2020

Gracie is a smart kid. Baldo, not so much.

Gracie can do anything — except make music. Unfortunately, she keeps trying.

T shirt – I play the guitar because I enjoy it, not because I’m good.

A subtle plug for apple

Love Gracie’s looks in the last two panels.

I think it’s great that Gracie does something she’s not good at. So difficult for high achievers!

In reality, Baldo would have left the AirPods in and double tapped one of them to hear Gracie.

I loved Jack Benny so for music class I wanted to learn to play a violin well after one week with it home; my family told me “please return it and find something else”. Well nothing else I wanted to play so my teacher said since I sang so well Chorus would be fine for me. Which it was. Especially funny was when our teacher left for us to practice and I taught them all the Four Seasons songs, Elvis’, Doris Day and more. My music teacher said “how do you know all the lyrics” I said when I buy a record I listen to it and write them down for the song and put it with the 45 of it. Or if it’s an album I have all the song lyrics on several sheets.

His heart was in the right place.

But, he needs to work on faking Sincerity.
