Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for February 11, 2010

Any longer and you would put everybody to sleep.

I didn’t notice any campaign ribbons on the uniform. He was injured in 1943, so he should at least have a Purple Heart. Then again, maybe he’ll just wear his medals.

He should get on NPR! They would give him an hour, at least.

By the way, do Skeezix and Nina have any cats?

At least hes getting air time. Time to reherse and really pollish up.

He hasn’t given a speech in a while, or he would realize just how long 5 minutes can be. He’ll feel as if he had been talking for half an hour.

It’s kool how Nina just happened to have those scissors on her. A toon can’t be too careful these days.

Next week: gerdo/berdo come on strong!

Remember to tune in, and keep those box tops coming, kids!

Only 5 minutes? He has at least 10 pages there. I wonder what all he planned to say.

I agree that Byrd and Gertie are due for an appearance, but also wonder about Upton and Ramona…

Thank you for sharing that pertinent information Joe Allen. Is it not inetresting to read other positive ideas of this great Cartoon . Thank you all.

He can do it! If he reads really, really fast.

MacArthur didn’t wear his ribbons. Authorized personal decorations are not required by AR572-5-1.

I think Nina is threatening him!
