   I like Bushmiller and Gilgrist and Jaimes about equally, which is just enough to keep following the strip even though pretty often disapproving my own judgment in doing so. (Sometimes I have really enjoyed each.) I wish I’d had the chance to see more of Jerry Scott’s version.

   I’ve had Philly cheesesteaks, albeit not in Philadelphia, and I really like them. But what “cheese steak” means to me is something served at a long-gone local lunch counter. It was basically a cheeseburger, but with cube steak instead of hamburger. Man, that was good! Maybe there was some secret ingredient, because I was never able to re-create them the way they served them there.
