Transcript:
Dad: Alice? What are you staring at? Alice: I'm wondering what your hair looked like. Then he said he has hair - it's just scalp-colored. Petey: Sounds like something on a t-shirt you'd give to an old person.
I love Alice’s [Richard’s] surreal imagination! And Petey is right about those tee-shirts for old persons: they’re advertised regularly in a number of the mail-order catalogues I routinely receive, skim through, and toss out…
I think maybe all of these at one time or another — but I sort of like panels 2 and 6 best… although there is something to be said about the simplicity of “scalp colored” hair…

I should just have a permanent “LOL” comment on this strip. Hardly insightful or witty, I know, but that’s what I’m doin’.

I think it probably looked like panel five.

Ditto to Sisyphos

I never have lost a single hair from my head. Just lucky, I guess. Of couse most of them have migrated to different parts of my body.

A former boss had a sign:“God made a few perfect heads & covered the rest with hair.”

I too wonder what Mr. Otterloop’s hair color looks like before going bald.

Put my vote down for panel #6 — Mr. Otterloop looks best in the green!
