Samuel Guy Inman was an American missionary in Mexico (evidently bringing Christianity to the heathen Catholics). He was a leading opponent of efforts to intervene in Mexico, and probably kept us out of a war for Mexican oil. Things have not changed much in the past century . . . (well, okay, these days Secretary fall wouldn’t go to prison. Fox News would hire him.)
After one knee replacement and one more to go (within the next few years), I marvel at the “contortionist”. It’s hard to imagine how that could be humanly possible. I wonder if she will have any joint problems in her later years…..?
Thanks for the link to the GoComics contest, Teresa. I went and voted… it was so hard because I could only choose one; FA is definitely one that I can’t go without.

That Rambler Ambulance on the blog looks awfully small. Probably the paramedics couldn’t do much work on you inside one of those.

The fact his other hand is discretely hidden, I bet this cartoon is endorsed by beloved former Surgeon General, Jocelyn Elders.

He maybe the Surgeon General, but he will never defeat my hero, Dr. Scholl.

@Teresa: With regard to Diet Dr. Pepper, I finally discovered a good use for a dishwasher, which doesn’t clean dishes very well at all.

I don’t drink any pop, but I do like a non-carbonated beverage called Sanbitter, which tastes somewhat like Campari without the alcohol.

I love Dr Pepper but my carbonated caffeine delivery beverage of choice is Diet Dew.

So glad to see the Doctor promoted to Surgeon General after all these years as my second-favorite soft drink!

I bet Mr. Pibb is bucking for a promotion too. Sir Pibb?

#63?! WTH were you thinking? (if you’re going to suck up, take a few tips from The Old Wolf)
P.S. to Tee. If I win you can have my Skype time – maybe you can learn a few things from Jim the Garfield guy about keeping things fresh.

According to the way I read my GoComics page, I save the best for last. That would be Frog Applause, the Fusco Brothers , and Prickly City.
My Top 3!
