New Year's Day 2024

The one where Mike ties up traffic while making a stupid grand gesture.

Synopsis: As they drive home, simpering about missing one another leads to Mike and Rhetta stopping to go to first base in the middle of the street and causing a traffic jam.

Summary: If you're gonna do that, park someplace, you git!!!!

It wasn't the first time that a mechanical contrivance boomed larger and his mind than the people around him and it will not be the last. Even till the end of his life, crap will come before people.

Until his death by "Lucky Clucky Chicken" sign.

The annoying thing is that people will say that Elly died of grief not long after while studiously ignoring what happens to a parasite when it's host dies.

Not to worry. After John's funeral (the reception of which would be catered for free by the Lucky Clucky Chicken restaurant). Elly would quickly find love with her childhood sweetheart Fireman Paul Lucas or Luke Paulus.

And she would get him to grow a moustache.

Yes! Now you are making me wish Lynn had not discontinued the comic strip. That would be a delightful read. Imagine Anthony's reaction when Fireman Luke Paulus had a moustache and Elly thought he looked manly and sexy and not at all like an ancient grandfather.

Anthony would be devastated.

OTOH, since Elly is so closely modeled after Lynn, maybe Luke Paulus growing the 'stache would cause Elly to lose respect for him.

Lynn liked the stache on Anthony but no one else did. If anything Luke Paulus would rescue people using his moustache.

It's not just a moustache; it's also a lasso!
