6. I read about the accident.....

and I'm sure he's worked a few strips ahead. He hurt his "drawing arm", darn, but glad he's okay.

Just found more info in this article:

I think long-time Doonesbury readers get more out of that strip, remembering the good old days when BD was a rightie and went to Vietnam.

7. "Oh, wow", "wrong answer" after all these years he is still funny

righties always point to him as the liberal voice in the comics, but he has always been so much more. His characters have so much personality and realism. They have grown and chhnaged so much through the years. And I don't remember Clinton getting away with anything. This ain't no Mallard Fillmore, a pathetic, unfunny diatribe.
