The kind of home life where the Mom’s boyfriend gives him a dollar if he’ll get lost. that was in the comic strip sometime back. James was very sad when he came to Ruthie’s house. Ruthie’s mother assured him that he was welcome and did not need a dollar to visit.
I remember reading in one of the DT collections CG and HG had become friends, Then when DT surpassed LOA in popularity their friendship was strained. I believe the commentator said that the two men were able to get past it and remain friends.
I remember the Fuller Brush man. He would always wear a nice suit and tie. He would talk to my Mom and then bring out his merchandise. We got some really good products from him.
Because I’m a sucker for Cornball Comedy. THAT’S WHY!!!!!
