Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for May 31, 2023

Gotta admit—Becky is adorable in this otherwise ho-hum story arc.

Someone needs to remind me… how long can someone go without breathing before brain damage sets in?

Joel’s answers are most literal. Is Rufus talkin’ to St. Pete yet ?

I love the way Joel looks at that phone . He’s not really sure what it is.

So either Rufus uses an iPad as his phone or Joel is smaller than Mini-Me.

Dragging out

Enough of these mush heads lets get back to the Wallet family, Walt, Corky, Clovia the diner the garage, etc!

To quote a famous line from PEANUTS

“It’s probably not serious. Second or third aid will do”

That phone is as big as his head. Amazing.

Rufus is unresponsive, possibly dead. And Joel doesn’t understand what the 911 operator is asking. The operator should respond as Joel originally requested: Send police, fire, ambulance, and let the first there assess the situation.
