    Ah, the elusive pickup truck driver! Fumbling to find a Slim Chance & The Longshots CD no doubt.

    At last, the pickup truck and its driver’s role are mentioned! And see how the light breaks through in p3. But True, I’m not sure revisiting the terrible details is a good idea at a funeral.

    Correction in P1, A drunk with his lights off. . .

    Is that Boo’s mom with the giant scar, or is it a river of tears, in P2. And where is her dad? He was a Marty looking dude if I recall. Gil and Mimi still MIA.

    In all reality , Lyndon Johnson comforts Boo’s mom in P 2 and while he’s there gives True his draft notice .

    True looks almost like a young Congressman/Senator in P3. Ellis, because we are living on Milford time, in all reality, the pickup truck driver was fumbling for a cassette deck. Apologies to Mr. Reality. Stay out of the street.

    Sounds like Tru(e) is giving old man Bader a pass on those random shots he guzzled before randomly leaving his lights off while randomly speeding through an unlit intersection.

    Because it was the lights being off that caused the accident. Sober drivers can forget to put the lights on too.

    Maybe have Tru(e) invite the congregation to Milford CC for a benefit golf outing for SADD and get the summer going.

    So according to P2, I was right yesterday. The driver of the pickup truck was Random from the tat storyline a few years ago, back for revenge! And apparently CDs have made it to Milford, they must be up to the 1980’s now. The rest of the world is in MP3s now, but getting there. And speaking of getting there, clicking on Mopped Up Thorp will get you where you want to go.

    @MOP: or..P1: twin drones smash into the church’s windows as the last story line about reality TV refuses to die.P-2: Ted Cruz comforts the Heidelberg Girl’s Fencing Coach who admired Boo’s “rapier” like wit.P-3: With no other way to end this thing, the alien’s transport beam carries both Tru and us to a new “revotln development”.

    Fumbling for a CD: That’s what happens when you have a cross-dresser in the passenger’s seat.

    In all reality , @ Bike Mike Good one. I bet that’s where Gil,Mimi, and Kaz are getting ready for the golf outing. A slightly used late model pickup truck donated by Max’s Milford Auto Graveyard will be raffled off .

    …and that is why 8 track players should be brought back, no fumbling an 8 track. If that pickup truck driver had an 8 track player, Boo would still be alive today.

    Considering how long of a lead time there is between when the strips are written and when they are published, and how long we have been asking about the pickup driver, do you think Rubham was reading our complaints and threw us a bone today?
