Transcript:
Dusty: So...you're not lettin' me off Elderpark probation? Miss Overdunne: Mr. Winters...your list of violations is enormous! Dusty: Can I just have my sharp whittlin' knife? A cowboy needs to whittle! Miss Overdunne: I've thought of that...consider it a conciliatory gesture...an "approved" knife. Dusty: This is a butter knife! Miss Overdunne: With two sticks of frozen butter. You'd best get to it, Mr. Winters.

Don’t worry. Dusty will find a way to put a whittling edge on the butter knife. May need some charcoal and oil to temper the edge, but I have confidence in Dusty.

This strip is a lot of fun – because though it really does make fun of senior living facilities, it isn’t nearly as bad as they can be.
No, they are not totally awful – just the ones my family might be able to afford if they got fed up with me. There are some awesomely wonderful ones too – if you are independently wealthy. If that isn’t motivation to protect your health and mobility, I don’t know what is.
