Nothing to do with today’s strip, but back on the 1st I referred to a word which I thought Heinlein coined in one of his books meaning “believe whatever makes you happy” but I couldn’t remember the word, much less the book, and several people wanted to know.
I woke up during last night thinking of it – “foma”. Googling that turned up that it was not Heinlein. Apologies.
“Live by the foma(*) that make you brave and kind and healthy and happy.
(*) Harmless untruths."
― Kurt Vonnegut, Cat’s Cradle
I posted this here because it seemed unlikely that anyone who asked is going to be looking back at comments from the 1st.
And now back to today’s comic strip, already in progress: Give him a break, Honey. As long as Duke doesn’t molest the orphans, he’ll be a step up from the priests the kids are used to. (No apologies, Catholics. The priests have brought this on themselves!)
