Transcript:
Woman: Can I help you, Chile? Rip Haywire: Yes, I'm searching for an old medicine woman... Woman: I am she... what can I do you for? Rip Haywire: Whole town... fat, dumb, gonna explode. Need a cure. Woman: That's what we in the trade call a "number 4" I can help! Rip Haywire: I brought along a guinea pig to test out the cure. Breezy: Guinea Pig? Where? They're so cuddly-wuddly. Woman: Yep. She'll do.

Can’t quite read what’s at the bottom of the sign. Looks like “Pop I and Curdlin’”Also, that tiny woman has no arms (not that I’d hold it against her).

It’s "Welcome to Blood Curlin’ Mountain: Population 1 and curdlin’ " and she has arms she’s just wearing a poncho

Li’l Abner is the funniest comic I’ve ever read. I see shade of Abner in Rip and R.J with their woes with the women.

Rip does have a lot of similarities to L’il Abner… I’m more of a Moonbeam McSwine guy myself…

Will do on the faux shmoo..Moonbeam after a (shudder!) bath.
