I’ll bet Im not the only one who gets this reference to lil Abner comic strip.

I sincerely hope we aren't the only two antiques in the shop.

I thought about that character but didn't remember how to spell his name.


What makes you think I spelled it right?

@glitterbag,
He had one evil that was unforgivable: he'd hit on and fondle women students assigned to be his assistant on his speaking engagements at colleges.

I didn't know that about him, but I already despised him.

@edgarblythe,
He got sued and almost arrested. His defense was "I gotta wooden leg, it couldn't have happened.

What it was, was "great man" syndrome. Very effective against young women and men.

It's not unusual. Women almost always have less legal rights than men.

Stuefyin’ Jones was her character, I think. (I’m checking my memory now.)

@bobsal u1553115,
Up until the late 70s he was regularly in receipt of corporal punishment, slipper cane etc.

In an early Annual Dennis makes a super soapbox cartie by taking lots of stuff from his dad's car.

His dad turns the car into a motorised whacking machine with flippers attached to the flywheel.

No wonder we all accepted being hit back then.

She was one. There were several more. Wolf Gal and Appassionata Von Climax were two.
