Lynn's Comments: She was told to wait; that the dime would be "returned" in due time.

Lynn's Comments: My brother produced the dime in a few days, and after my mom washed it off, we saw that it had turned blue. The chemicals in Al's stomach had coloured the dime blue! He was so excited about this that as soon as he could find another dime...he swallowed it!

Lynn's Comments: Drawing people kissing is a challenge. Noses always get in the way! (Especially large, cartoon noses.)

Lynn's Comments: Changing this to a modern song would mean changing the punch line. Some things you have to leave as they are!

Lynn's Comments: I was born in 1947. I guess Elly Patterson was a few years younger. Only in a comic strip can you lie about your age and get away with it!

Lynn's Comments: My daughter liked to empty the kitchen cupboards and climb into them. She especially loved the Lazy Susan. She would lie on the bottom shelf and roll the unit around with her feet: her own private carousel.

Lynn's Comments: We lived in the country. One day a mink got into my kitchen. He stood there looking at me—almost daring me to do something about him. I live trapped the little guy, thought I'd closed his way in, and let him go. Next day he was back in my kitchen, and I was sure he was grinning at me.
