Re: 11-8-20 strip
What does ” one ( pumpkin) owed the other 6 large” mean ?
$1000 notes are occasionally referred to as “large” (“six large” being $6,000).
I feel for the kids in Sally Forth. As a teacher going to a new school, having to make friends with new teammates and families, I have that ball in the pit of my stomach. This link is a story I wrote that I am sharing with my students. It seems Hilary and her friends may need it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/13r2gY4Mz4tM-WPcZE5g7a6zLl6D7j3eT/view?usp=sharing
It’s time you gave Ted Forth a new haircut. In the 2/2 strip, he looks like a drag queen.
Hmmmm – I will have to look into this…
