Looks Good on Paper by Dan Collins for May 18, 2024

Works for me.

“To watch some TV”. Yep. That’s what they all say.

Am I missing something? Is Thelma Lou going to die in a hail of bullets from a legally purchased firearm or something?

About the worse thing to happen in Mayberry is Otis getting drunk and wandering into the jail to lock himself up for the night.

Don’t forget the ice cream!!!!!!

Sitting on the front porch waiting for Otis Campbell to stumble by on his way to sleep it off in the jail (where he had his own set of keys) …..

Simple pleasures. Easy living.

If it’s the right small town in Ohio, you can go over to Calvin’s house and watch scary movies like “Zombie Cheerleaders from Mars.”

Andy. Where’s Opie? :)

Even with just one or two television channels, you’ll might spend too much time deciding what to watch. (It might depend on the ‘Rabbit Ears’) Oh well, you might as well just listen to The Accordion and Banjo Jamboree on the radio. This week it’s sponsored by Wally’s Service Station-out by the highway.

“Billboard Capital of the World”

The family ranch is near Murchison, TX. I swear their major business is the billboards clogging the town.

When did Thelma Lou move to Ohio? Did she go there to get away from Barney? How’s Barney taking this?

Thelma Lou ? Mayberry ain’t in Ohio.

Given the text, shouldn’t that be small town North Carolina?

These places still exist. Wherever nobody can get cable or Internet.

Several days without a new strip. It must be Musky season, eh, Dan?
