    (Foxtrot) How did the boys get onto the set?

    (Judge Parker) They’re talking like it’s one card with both players on it. I thought all this time it was two different cards. One card featuring Mickey and Yogi would indeed be a collector’s item.

    (Mark Trail) So Mark has got to go up yonder and look for him.

    (Phantom) Does this end the story arc, or do we get to see what Phantom does with Chatu?

    (Rex Morgan) So they’re going to hire this loser who’s already been caught and been to jail? Boy how dumb can crooks get?

    (Alley Oop) So the university rebuilt his rocket for him for free? How cool is that?

    (Phntm) The warden sees the mark of the Phntm.

    (Rex Morgan) Berna should have told Dex that the lottery ticket was “in a safe place” - and let it go at that. It would have been the truth without giving specific information. Now Tony, Holly, and Riley will probably be breaking into Rex’s office (and safe).

    (Judge Parker) Back around March 10, Connie offered Angel her baseball card: Angel: You act as if I have something to say about this! I’m a driver….remember? Connie: Larry Cheatham listens to you, Angel…your opinion matters! Connie: Make him believe I can do this (the PR for the book)…and we’ll both be heroes! You can also have my 1957 Topps Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra baseball card! As I recall, it turned out Cheatham was already on board to hire Connie, so offering the Angel the baseball card was an unnecessary gesture. Hence Connie’s glare in panel 2 today.

    (Apt. 3-G) Tommie went to Dan’s for breakfast and it’s now time for dinner (what happened to lunch?).

    (Mary Worth) Mary and Wilbur continue to chat and give us background on Drew’s past love life.

    (Mark Trail) I wonder where “here” is?

    (FoxTrot) Ahora!=Now! But that’s about all I get. The English version says ”root beer stains” (panel 4), but the Spanish version doesn’t seem to be translated as “root beer.” ??

    (Alley Oop) Pretty Cool, davidf42.

    (JP) There’s a picture of the ‘57 “Power Hitters” Mantle/Berra baseball card at Amazon. Price listed appear to be $255-$463. Hope this link works. http://www.amazon.com/1957-Topps-407-Mickey-Mantle/dp/B003DLQPMK

    Thanks for that link, Florchi. After seeing it, I remember the card, although I don’t think I actually owned one like it. Probably one of the kids down the street.

    (Phantom) Will be interesting where P brings Chatu>

    (Rex Morgan) Berna didn’t think Dex would go off the deep end.

    (MW) I like how Mary switches hands in panels 2 & 3 holding her cup.

    Florchi, in MW, that’s Jeff (Drew’s dad) talking about his son, not Wilbur.
