Oh man! Actually had a bunch of sheep slide down the hill into the pen on ice one time. (big pileup at the bottom). Sure wish I’d thought of this pun then. :)
I can do more left handed than most. I attribute that to my father being left handed. Sometimes I switch hands to write on the board at school when I’m teaching, (either hand is terrible penmanship which I also attribute to my father). If the kids notice, I tell them I’m amphibious. ;)
At the time this strip was written, people associated totem poles with Eskimos. Now. in this day and age of historical accuracy and political correctness, we associate the totem poles with the Pacific Northwest Indians , (excuse me, Native Americans), and Eskimo is not the correct word for most of the tribes of the far north and may indeed be an insult I’m told.
The only reason I read Alley Oop, Gasoline Alley, and the new Nancy anymore is tradition. I’ve been reading them since my older sister had to read them to me 60 years ago.
My wife gets back from helping take care of our daughter, (well, mostly granddaughters) on Monday. She’s been gone since the middle of July. I guess I better clean house. Tomorrow, tomorrow will do.
