   Did not know that. Thanks.

   I was offline yesterday and just finished reading yesterday’s strip and the comments. It seems that Jimmy poked a hornets’ nest. (Was Jimmy deliberately trolling? Who knows?)

   Here is my only comment: His real name was Cristóbal Colón.

   I don’t disagree with your comments about Cristóbal Colón. Why, though, do you celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day?

   I recall seeing that exact pattern in a downtown Lazarus (back before both Lazarus and the downtown closed up). I never knew about the marketing behind it. Thanks for the information!

   That’s interesting. My local Walmart is fairly large, and the men’s section is barely there. Few dress shirts, even fewer dress slacks. Socks and boxers of a quality that is not high enough for me. Dress shoes virtually nonexistent. Their Faded Glory blue jeans, though, are astounding. They fit me the best of any jeans I’ve ever bought.

   The Walmart here is most likely a reflection of this area’s demography. The town is primarily working class, and only a few men need clothing suitable for an office. Besides, a Penny’s and a Kohl’s are here (Elder-Beerman shut its doors nationwide), and they offer fairly decent clothes and shoes for the office.

   It does sound expensive, but I will check with a running store to see if they know someone who can do it. Thanks for the help.

   She’s a friend of mine?

   Good sense of humor! I will have to double check my local Walmart. All the other stores that I can think of always have a small area for males.

    Thanks. As long as I keep off the weight, exercise, and eat healthy food, I should be okay.
