Snow Blow

February 22, 1967
The whole problem with this ruse that now you are wandering around the city with no lodge meeting to go to and what are you going to do with your outfit when you get to wherever you are playing poker? Is Brutus the Grand Poobah of his lodge?

If only there was something that could've happened so Brutus wouldn't have to make up a lodge meeting and still go out and hang with his friends.

Dick Cavalli, who this strip gives apologies to, was the writer/artist on NEA's Morty Meekle which would become Winthrop. The strip would last from 1956 until 1994. Cavalli would pass away in 1997 at the age of 74. I am just assuming Cavalli would fake lodge meetings to get away from his wife, Helen.

I'm glad to see Wilberforce is excited for the snow. I'm more in Hattie's camp. If you're gonna snow, get me out of work.

Impressed that the sidewalks have already been cleared. Wherever they live is on it with snow removal, unlike every other place in the country.
