I think the basic concept was that if we ignored it long enough we'd win by natural attrition; unfortunately we failed to take into consideration a virtually unlimited number of new recruits on the other side. Christmas ... a time when need is keenly felt. Thanks for the timely reminder Bong (sincerely). We're truly among the fortunate. Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men.

Gilbert Sheldon, like Crumb, moved to France about 10 years back where they are celebrities.

(unless I forgot for some reason) My favorite Freak Brothers comic was the one where they piled into Phineas' VW bus for a road trip to Mexico. When they showed up at the Tijuana border the Mexican cops looked them over and pointed to Franklin and Freddie and told them they were good to go, then they turned to Phineas with his black, curly hair and full beard and said "not you Fidel, you come with us." The next thing you see is Freewheelin' Franklin & Fat Freddie hangin' out suckin' down beers and eatin' tacos while poor Phineas is in La Mesa prison bustin' rocks and eating chicken foot soup.
