Frazz by Jef Mallett for August 18, 2022

If you’re keeping score, you’re missing the (ahem) points.

Seems the overall purpose was to get Caulfield through his summer reading list. So, they need to know how many books are left, thus how many miles Mrs. Olsen has to walk before first day of school. Hope she has more ben-gay and band-aids.

If Ms. Olsen got herself a sports bra, the walking would become less painful.

I’m a firm believer in knowledge for the sake of knowledge, art for art’s sake, etc. Who knows where it might lead?

The ‘point’ might be to make both activities a habit for both of you.

Now that both of you have gotten the point, resume your healthy activities.

Time to go hang out in the Pointless Forest.

Irenic conversation could have a purpose.

If only Frazz lacked a point more often.

Frazz would have made a great generation X.

It certainly seems pointless to me.

Yogi Berra: “No one goes there nowadays, it’s too crowded.”

If they lived someplace nice instead of a suburb, then she might actually see the benefit of walking.
