In my typical fashion, I’ve sort of backed into this situation. Since many of you seem to be getting a kick out of the old conversations between Gene and his girlfriend Ruth, I thought I’d back up a few weeks and present some of the earlier related strips from that summer. Which have appeared here before, by the way. Have you heard? As of this writing, Tom Watson is leading the British Open. The typical A&J reader has got to love that! Yeah, Redman in the Big O, I know: the official title is “The Open Championship.”
