   Jay looks just like Jeremy, Roy looks like Jeremy’s dad, Kathy (?) looks like Sarah, Rita looks like Jeremy’s mom. I love these “guess which cartoonist’s style” strips.

   I’m afraid that’s what a lot of people in the small towns south of Tampa Bay were saying. I personally know a woman who just moved there from Tennessee with her husband and two children just a few months ago, and they just had their brand new house heavily damaged by Milton. They had evacuated to a shelter all the way down in Miami, where she started having panic attacks for the first time in her life.

    He should do the Larry David narrowing of the eyes, stare, and “Are you sure? Are you REALLY sure?”
