This is one of the better comic strips. Great story lines and superb art work. No one else captures the expressions on the faces as well as Rick Detorie
DAZZ: In the western hemisphere, cowbirds are parasitic breeders. Remember, Walt Kelly represented real communists as two cowbirds. (It was a time when progressives were called communists, like now terrorist is the favored term by fascists).
-Ruthie’s expression in Panel 4, I thought it was a valentine for Buggy Crispino-LOL!! I thought her expression was because she’s pretty much a tom-boy (do they still use that expression?), and perfume isn’t her thing.-But surprising the Library Lady is always her thing…

Panel 4 is Ruthie’s expression that says “Yep – PERFECT amount of my Mom’s expensive perfume!”

Excellent love and mom returning love to Ruthie. Yes a mom is always loved and children should not worry about losing their mom so young.
