And in the Daily News...

As a town founded and dominated by a fundamentalist flat-earth religious cult, Zion, Illinois has cars? Imagine that.

Hey, let's all get together and send Jimmy some questions that aren't dumb.

Pigeon season never closes.

Box of books == outdated Army field manuals.

"Oh, I thought you carried the riding crop around because -- oh, never mind..."

Daily_News_1946_06_14_637.jpg

And it never works out...

Pssst, Corky's real name is "Corkleigh," but he begged them not to put it on the diploma.

Daily_News_1946_06_14_642.jpg

Good luck getting a word in...

VIctor Mature does the comics now?

"Awlis," grumbles Sally, "t' jern t' captial class."

"Ain'choo t' one awrways gotta plan?"

Howzis? She eveh been t'wa race track?" "Awr you NUTS???" bursts Sally


These two are fun together. They both connive when they have to, just in different fashions.

I wonder if he ever got back that gold cigarette case that was stolen at the World's Fair. How about it, Bink?

"I don't know what you are talking about. I was never anywhere near that Fair." — BS (Thinking to herself, "I know I got rid of that pawn ticket. There's nothing to connect me to that stupid case and it was gold filled anyway.")

And lust and murder. That guy could not sound more guilty.

Wouldn't a handg*n make more sense? But we know Caniff has something specific in mind for the Tommy g*n.

There's no win there.

Ian's safe on First grounder, now Selene appears grandstand front row...
Binnie is such an adorable angel. Frankly, Ian doesn't deserve her.

Terry's Thompson request makes absolutely no sense. A 1911 A1 sidearm would be logical as it could stop
Slits; whereas a .38 revolver would only slow him down prior aimed kill shot.

All mayhem, mischief, and murder but no humongous showgirl caused marital disruption divorces threatening generational accumulated wealth. During the war things were really hopping bedroom-to-boardroom-to Reno without tenancy in the entirety trust wrapped like a rascal condom. :confused:

I hate to say it, but this guy reminds me of a character from a David Lynch film. Maybe the Robert Blake character, I don’t know, but he’s creeping me out.

I keep hoping Scarlet wakes up by the side the railroad track and realizes this whole swamp thing was a dream. Both that and Jane Arden have taken turns into dull plots.

"Music In The Foster Fashion" was one of the least stimulating of the "Mickey Mouse" dance bands of the day, which is something you might expect to play in a weird distorted and vaguely terrifying manner on the soundtrack of a David Lynch film.

I don't know what Scarlet's excuse is but I think Janie is just killing time until it's fall, so she can go back to the city and get her dyed muskrat out of storage.
