Alice: I know what that letter is! it's A, like in Alice! Know how I know? It's got two legs and a belt, just like me! Petey: That's right! Two legs and a belt, and a pointy little head, just like you! Alice: Yeah! Two legs and a belt and a pointy little head! Alice: Two legs and a belt, and a pointy little head! Alice: two legs and a belt, and a pointy little head! Dad: You know, in a few minutes, it'll hit her, and she'll come after you. Petey: Maybe I'd better squat down under the sink in the utility room till this blows over.

Thanks, Peter Sr., for pointing out Peter Jr.’s remark.

So this was drawn by Mr. Thompson himself and not a guest cartoonist?

This kind of highlights my point before that it would be out of character for Alice to write “$400 Please”, on Monday, when she has a tenuous grasp on the letter A alone.

Father and Son sticking together. It’s for the sake of Petey’s survival and the survival of the Otterloop line….

Petey in a predicament of his own making. He thought she would get the dig right away, say something snarky back, and that would be the end of it. Not only doe she NOT get it, but she makes it into a song and goes marching around the house singing it.. Might she even venture outside before dawn breaks? Then good old dad swoops in to share some much-needed experience, urging his only son to take defensive measures in anticipation of the detonation of this unexploded ordnance. So familial.
