    Geez Frank you’re CLUELESS.

    And You WONDER Why You STILL get Crappy Ties and Cheap, Crudely drawn Father’s Day cards Year after Year.

    Say Frank? On the trip home, why don’t You BEGUILE Mr. Perfect with the story of How You and Nancy let Your Highly Impressionable Daughter go out on a Date with Elwood in exchange for a gift card.

    I’m SURE He’ll find the Story Enlightening……,

    How come Quill doesn’t seem to pay attention when Frank is talking. Either he is too focused on Luann or parents are not part of the equation.

    On a more serious note, years ago, Evans garnered himself quite a bit of praise and criticism when he presented (tastefully) the situation of a young woman and how she and her family handled the onset of her first menses. You have to wonder if he and Karen are up for the challenge of presenting that same young woman a few years later deciding if she’s ready for sex. She’s the right age, and he’s a nice clean boy who she “really, really loves”. Could make for some interesting reading, and maybe a couple of seven hundred comment gocomics.com pages.

    Actually, Quill wouldn’t be missing Vegemite yet, whereas he has been missing physical contact with Luann for some time now.-The father is intentionally being clueless. The two only have eyes for each other.It’s sweet.-The only thing which could make it better would be if Donny W could explain to us what it REALLY means.In detailNot being his usual recalcitrant self.Letting it all hang out.

    @Edward White- I don’t know, just a few days ago Leviticus posted the link to the strip Quill first appeared in. Tiffany visited the library with young Quill on her arm, eager to show him off to Luann and Gunther. She looked so happy…! She was obviously taken by Quill even before he hooked up with Luann, though I don’t doubt she was hoping Luann would be a little jealous. Maybe she would have lost interest in him eventually, but I don’t think so. She actually wept when it sank in that Quill was gone back to Australia…poor Tiffany…! But, Quill has made his choice, and I hope she will eventually accept and respect that, though I don’t expect it will be overnight, and that it may entail a struggle…

    Quill is dropping some hot hints at Luann, and the look in her eyes in panel 2 suggests she is amenable to them. No wonder Frank is striving desperately to change the topic to something innocuous (if one may call Vegemite “innocuous”)….

    Frank can just say to Quill, “If your thing touches my daughter, I will cut it off.” That should get the message across.

    “They’re NOT walking away "^As evidence to your statement, I submit the fact that the baggage carousel was actually DRAWN in detail (bold, for emph. only..)…. Why waste ink and color for such detail, just to give the appearance of walking away, since they’d have no more need to be in that area?

    “….counter the nonsense ….” (“about how these new characters has ’ruined” the strip")^ In support of your countering the silly notion, judging by the number of posts (including for this week’s arc), it doesn’t seem to have done anything but continue the interest….

    I guess when a future arc switches to Tiffany getting ready for camp, upon her entrance, perhaps the song “Green Eyed Lady” by Sugarloaf will be cued (only because of the title, not the lyrics)…..

    Frank obviously came along as chaperone (plus he obviously isn’t comfortable with Luann’s driving yet). I agree with the posters who say he’s completely aware of what’s going on and is trying to steer the conversation away from the danger zone.

    If Frank was really that concerned with his daughter’s chastity, he could just have her stay close to Brad.

    Lev, Since we’re on a different topic – I don’t think I know you, where would you get that idea? I know your posts here, and like Dave53, I enjoy poking gentle fun at your preoccupation with Brad’s sexual status. I don’t consider you an adversary, I like most of what you post. I’ve tried to read several things that DW has posted and had to walk away frustrated – he really has trouble stringing together cohesive thoughts, and i’ve noted this before. He might think of me as his posting buddy, but rest assured, I remain a free agent.

    OK, I’ve read today’s strip 5 times and I can’t stretch my mind enough to convince myself that the innuendo is not implicitly sexual. He’s looking forward to having sex with Luann and implies it pretty clearly right in front of her dad. Pretty bold for Evans, isn’t it? Let me read it a 6th time… Yep. No question of it. Quill is leering in both panels and it’s a familiar leer. I have a feeling the Skyping worries from earlier were well-founded. Shrug. What is she, 16? 17?

    IMHO, the introduction of this arc, which brings Quill back in close proximity of Luann…this time with him being MUCH MORE interested in Luann…is meant to depict how much ‘angst’ is a part of every teenager’s life. At some point in time, every female teenager will have a ‘Quill’ moment….shall I or shan’t I???. This is mainly a female moment as most teenage guys wouldn’t hesitate a second to give in to the heat of the moment. Girls have a lot more risk to measure before giving in. As we see in the news, girls are dumped readily by their lover for another….or videotaped and plastered all over the Internet…or become single moms on welfare and out of school.

    Frank is the typical father, standing on the outside looking it…and looking foolish…because he knows that what transpires will do so in spite of all he says or does. He’s a loving father and will be there for Luann no matter what happens to her.

    Even if Quill were to find a Trojan lying on the floor, or handed discreetly to him, it does not mean he will use it…as most men claim to hate them. And, it does not mean he is only interested in Luann for that reason. Teenagers really can have meaningful relationships without the burden of early activity. Society almost talks young couples into doing it…society assumes young couples will…the Internet environment reeks of innuendoes….and it is not fair to young couples to dump on their relationships before they have barely begun.

    Luann is level-headed. She will do the right thing even if it means asking her mom for a prescription.

    That said, I think Quill is alluding to taking Luann to the prom…not to a back seat…and I also bet that Tiffany causes a break between the two and Quill switches to her and dumps Luann. However, teenage angst will ensure that Luann spends the rest of her life thinking she still loves Quill.
