Lynn's Comments: I sucked my thumb until I was about seven. I still remember the taste...not bad and calorie free!

Lynn's Comments: This is a real problem. After living and working with a dentist, I could tell from a child's dentition if he or she had been sucking their thumb for too long. I knew about these appliances to stop the habit...they were unpleasant, but they worked!

Lynn's Comments: This thumb sucking appliance is a small metal wire contraption that is glued into a child's mouth. This tiny appliance has tiny prongs on it which makes sucking uncomfortable and (hopefully) breaks the habit. Too bad there isn't something similar for smoking!

Lynn's Comments: If you're a fan of Jim Unger's "Herman," look at John's profile in panel 8. Doesn’t it look like it was drawn by Jim Unger? I loved the way he drew a non-expression like this. Guess the admiration rubbed off!

Lynn's Comments: Looking at this, I have to smile. I used to worry about my kids going out on their own at night. Now, at 72 and not keen to drive when it's the dark, my kids worry about me!

Lynn's Comments: I got a letter telling me I should have written "whomever" in the first panel. Maybe that's grammatically correct, but...it’s just not the way we actually talk!

Lynn's Comments: My husband was a serious model railroader. After a while, I understood the vocabulary and the methods for creating good tracks and dioramas, but I never understood the passion.

Lynn's Comments: The first snowfall each year in Lynn Lake, Manitoba came with very low temperatures. I had never in my life experienced such cold. We bundled ourselves up in parkas, snow pants, hats and scarves, and the way we (friends and family) recognized each other was by the clothes we wore, the way we walked and where we were going!

Lynn's Comments: I had so much fun drawing the baby and the dog. I almost used them too much.
