I’ve got to stop delaying the post with the idea of adding another segment. So it turned into a double post of sorts a bit before midnight today – a classic comics update for the 18th and 19th:
I’m not sure if the new dog, with the stubby tail is a particular breed, but now he has to meet the Pal of the house.
This town ain’t big enough for the co-founders of a town near Conniption.
A double update of Brenda has the readers finding out the fate of Maryjane Jones…
and a double update shows the rest of the night Rufus and Melba spent the night together.
Well, the birth of the kittens certainly explains why the mama cat was off her feed a few weeks back. The dizziness and not wanting to eat was because of her pregnancy and not her being picky..
Will Mee-Meow and her kittens gradually become the dominant characters on Gasoline Alley? Is this a precusor to a merger with Breaking Cat News? Inquiring minds want to know.
From today’s Curmudgeon with guest blogger “Uncle Lumpy”:
“What I love about Gasoline Alley is Jim Scancarelli’s art: the guy’s an old-school natural, and so long as he doesn’t try to get all photorealistic on us, there’s an easy elegance to his work that takes me back to when newspaper comics were a Big Deal and worthy of craft (cf. L’il Abner, Out Our Way, Pogo, Steve Canyon, many more). And it’s charming when Scancarelli gets locked in on something he clearly wants to draw, like a locomotive or today’s World’s Most Adorable Water Heater. Just look at that thing: lovingly rendered hot and cold water lines (copper, no PEX for 18″ ’cause it’s gas), corrugated vent duct shared with the chimney flue no backdrafting here no siree, igniter access panel, overflow pipe, inspection tag, for Pete’s sake! There’s even an International Residential Code-compliant stand to protect against ignition of flammable vapors. But what does that sucker hold, maybe two quarts?
It almost makes up for the cutesy animals and Joel’s lame pun."

Who’s the Daddy? Only one kitten looks like mama, and the other two look nothing like each other.

One kitten each for Aubee, Sophie, and Ava Luna?
