Luann Againn by Greg Evans for September 06, 2023

I don’t see him hopping anytime soon.

You know if this was set in 2023 rather than 1995 Frank would go to the chiropractor and then if he mentioned to the chiropractor that his back still hurt there is a good chance this could become a “Frank goes to the Pill Mill and really likes it!” arc and depending on if Nancy had a successful intervention or not, Luann would definitely touch on one of society’s bigger problems. Of course what some people like about the strip is that it is kind of “Brady Bunch” like in that the biggest crisis are Gunnie getting dumped again but has a home and school to look forward to, Bern has to live with the DeGroots but is not homeless, Tiff hates her quad mate but likes Kip, Luann can’t find love if it bit her etc. On occasion a bit of reality is displayed via minor characters like Walt, Tara and the diabolical Ann Eifel but a vast majority of the arcs are kind of like the issues Greg and Marcia dealt with back in the early ’70s or perhaps Jim Carrey in “The Truman Show” and thus is a welcome break from the “Real World”.

The RACK!

I recall going to a chiropractor once who had one of those tables. Can’t remember the outcome however. It was so many years ago.

Chiropractic? Mr. DeGroot’s be better off going to get real medical treatment instead of that charlatanry.

Looks like the table in “Goldfinger”. “No Mr. Degroot. I expect you to die!”

didn’t someone try to kill James Bond on one of those in “Thunderball”?

At least it’s not an Iron Maiden, Frank.

In the hands of a Gonstead practitioner, you are in good hands. All others, be ware. Unfortunately, there are a lot of quacks in this field. Anyone who says "you need to see me twice a week for the rest of your life, run and don’t look back.

Hey, if James Bond can survive it…well, I guess you won’t.

That’s because it is Frank.

Loved that machine it made me feel better for a day or two. 8 months ago a very young Physical Therapist first day on the job taught me an exercise that has cleared up a back problem that is 20 years old that numerous Physical Therapist’s, chiropractors and back surgeons have not been able to help me with. I’d say a 90-95% relief. Out of the mouths of babes.

I’m pretty sure they cannot tell that from an x-ray. It’s just one of those things they say. The last time I went to a chiropractor, he put funny little shoes on me and told me one leg was longer than the other. Now, he didn’t make any attempt to stretch my legs before this diagnosis, so I interpreted it as pure B.S.

My favorite thing at the chirocrator’s office is the rolling table.

It’s got a deal that rolls up and down your spine, like a massage. I want one for my basement.
