« So Is Winston Still Running For President? | Main | Junk Bonds »

Alternate Beginning, Middle and Ending
Here we are, and as per usual, 2 weeks behind the times and slightly less topical than a hemmorhoid cream. Nevertheless, it's refreshing to see our favorite author acknowledge the accomplishments of Barry Bonds, after so many daft and pointless strips earlier in the series which cast a wary eye upon him and his achievements on the baseball diamond.
Add in the fact that there's a sly undercurrent giving a nod and a wink to Gary U.S. Bonds and his 1981 smash hit "This Little Girl" and this may turn out to be the best one-day panel in the history of Prickly City. If only it were intended to be as described, which, of course, it wasn't.
That fact, however, shouldn't stop us from looking forward to the future tribute to Gary & Kirby Puckett. One had hits with the Gap Band, and the other robbed hits from falling in the gap! Oh, the hilarity.

Isn't Winslow worth millions now that he's running for the presidency and has all those donations?
