Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for June 25, 2010

In a situation like this, Nancy Drew and Agatha Christie would turn on the stove and sit on the element.

Nancy Drew or Agatha Christie would eat all the food before nightfall.

Gosh Gertie, it isn’t all that hard. Either:

a) Go look in the attic and see if see if someone is camped out there.

b) Do a stake-out outside the kitchen door tonight

c) Set some kind of trap at both doors to the kitchen (like a bucket of water over the door or something)

d) Call Skeezix

they would go out for breakfast!

they would lock and load their m-16s , set up a perimeter and a listening post and set out some claymores….

Are Nancy Drew and Agatha Christie characters in this strip?

I don’t read it every day so maybe I missed them.

Not Nancy Drew or Agatha Christie instead call the Ghostbusters!

jtpozenel no you didn’t miss anything Gertie just mentioned the two detective books she has read to solve a mystery.

nighthawks, you forgot the foo gas!

Gweedo, let’s borrow a page from Dick Tracy and instead of Shazaam have FLOOM! ;)

There must be DNA all over the kitchen… simply borrow an electron microscope from Chipper and see whose DNA it is.

Now that I think of it HectorPriam, I do remember seeing the Hardy boys as you described.

My memory isn’t what it used to be, but that sure does ring a bell! Thanks for the reminder.

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were a comedy duo. Is someone pulling someone’s leg?

marvee: They certainly are.
