    I click onto the comic just as Patrick Hernandez’ “Born to Be Alive” comes on the radio.

    Skeezix and Nina – long may they wave!

    Working up the classics for the 11th, I got halfway through 1930. But it was the Sunday GA from ‘73 that was a time-eater this time around. It’s a three-part update for your Superb Owl viewing pleasure:

    Percival Priss wants to thank Rick for taking the gems off his hands for the night, and offers to buy him a drink. It’s a bit early on a working day for the Marshal to kick back in a saloon, but then our hero reasons that it’s 5 o’clock somewhere.

    Just when you think the New Look/Big Stare is settled and the story can move on to some new, ridiculous turn of events… the Governor calls a special session of the He-Man Woman Haters Gotham State General Assembly. Naturally the men are unwilling to accept the results of the election, and are starting to work on some way, to get *their way after all.

    Will success go to Slim’s head? By marrying Clovia, does Slim automatically become Prince Regent and primary heir to the throne of the Gasoline Alley Garage? Will Sarge and Hack have to bend the knee to grease pit royalty??

    Let’s hope this Valentine kiss strip doesn’t show up again on Wednesday which is Valentine’s Day.

    Hey, you guys are a bunch of naysayers. I haven’t to enjoy this little romantic interlude. It doesn’t happen that often. Just think it could’ve been Rufus and Mayor Melba.

    The writer cheats. Every special occasion gets a Sunday treatment, and then on the actual day.

    Next: Walt recalls when Feast of St. Valentine was first held, back when he was a boy in the 8th century :)

    Well now – time to open your betting app and make your wagers; Will Wednesday be a repeat of today or will it be a tribute to Skeezix turning 103?

    Odds are 1000:1 on the birthday.

    Very sweet today, my own husband does not do sweet endearments, me I use them for him. He also knows no chocolate allergic too, yet he can have those morsels away from me, and he bought me few years ago that last forever heart shaped necklace and pierced earrings with our birthstone on the heart. I happy wear that.
