Lynn's Comments: We didn’t have a clothes drier when I was a kid. Everyone put their laundry outside on clotheslines. Apparently, the neighbours really did look at your laundry and made judgments because my mom always put the best sheets and towels on the top line where they could be seen. Everything else was hidden or hung in the basement.

Lynn's Comments: This series of cartoons received a heated response. Some readers took issue with me for suggesting Candace was dressing inappropriately, others were supportive and thought she should be told to change.

Lynn's Comments: Here I drew a young man I had seen on the street. His hair was multicoloured and standing like a fan—straight up and rigid. I figured that you don't go out in public like this unless you want attention, so I asked him how he had done his hair. His answer was, "wood glue and bingo dabbers." What fun!

Lynn's Comments: This also happened. My son decided to see how far a spool of dental floss would go. He strung the stairwell and the hallway and even the kitchen before he ran out of floss. I would have been angry, but it’s hard to give serious discipline when you’re laughing!
