Nancy: How come you're always leaning, Louie?
Boy: I'm just holding up this tree.
Nancy: HOLDING UP THE TREE-- That's an OLD one--- Let's go, LEANING LOUIE.
Boy: Ok.
Noise: CRASH
@Guy GilchristThis one reminds me of the short story ‘Toba Tek Singh’ by the Indian writer Saadat Hasan Manto. He wrote about the Partition of India into Pakistan by the Muslim League and about all the violence, anger and misery it created.
He’s incredible. You should look him up and read him. And so should everyone who reads today’s strip.
Saw that gag executed by the Marx Brothers (Harpo) in A Night in Casablanca. He’s leaning on a wall under a ‘No Loitering’ sign. It never gets old and always cracks me up.
If you’re in Nashville, this convention will be of interest…I’ll be there drawing, speaking….check into the video about 4 mins in…http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/index.php/comicspriceguide-com-presents-tales-from-the-geek-episode-12/

As I recall this gag has been used by Mad, Beetle Bailey, Mutt/Jeff and a few others. Always a good laugh.
