An awkward question

By Jimmy Johnson

I go away for a couple of days, and upon my return I learn I’ve made plans to sail around the world. Is that it? Nice of you people to consult me first. I’m not saying no, mind you. However, you’d better get used to irregular updates. Speaking of “irregular,” one of the few changes my editor has ever asked me to make to the comic strip was to change the word “constipation” to “irregularity.” Now, isn’t that the inside information you come here for?
