In a few months Janis will be talking to her sister and it’ll come out that her son, who’s a little older than Gene, had a thing with a girl at the beach where they went on summer vacations. The girl called him at home a month or so later, and when he got off the phone he told his mom that he didn’t want to go back there any more. She assumed that Mary Sue or whatever-her-name-was had broken his heart, and that’s why they’ve been going to the mountains every summer since then.

If you are a Christian, why do you not believe in Allah? Or, if you are a Muslim, why do you not believe in Yahweh? If you will thoughtfully answer this question, I think you will understand why atheists don’t believe in either.
Actually that must include J.J., since he’s forgotten that Janis and Gene TEXT each other far more than they call. They would have sent several both ways by now, and the last two strips would never happen.
At first I didn’t know whether Gus was talking to his guests, inviting them back into the restaurant to continue the reception, or to J.J.’s readers, inviting them to continue following the strip.
One of Gene’s cousins is her real father.

Don’t tell anybody.
