Funny Stuff: "News Blues"

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Or perhaps Ol' Groove should say, "Ha, ha, ha!" Today we begin (why didn't I think of this before?) another new semi-regular department: "Funny Stuff!" We're gonna kick it off with a cute Little Audrey strip (writer? artist? Even GCD doesn't know.) from Playful Little Audrey #91 (July 1970). As a six-year-old, Li'l Groove could totally relate to this story (except for the getting out of school due to rain (actually, flooding)--didn't experience that until 1977): parents want to watch the news; missing a show because you had one TV (and no such thing as a VCR or DVR); a rainy day with nothing to do but read comicbooks (never a bad thing in my eyes). Can you imagine how confused kids today would be after reading "News Blues"? Now THAT'S funny!




And did Ol' Groove mention how much he loves dream sequences?
