I was flattered! How my girlfriend felt about it was a different matter, though. <br /><br />And I believe that is the point of the story. Have you ever stolen someone else's boyfriend just because you could, and because it was one-upping your sister or friend? Rita wasn't really interested in the guys she stole. She just didn't want her sister to have them.<br /><br />As for me and my girlfriend (who is not the girl I eventually eloped with and married) we had...fights...<i>hooooooo-eeee</i>, did we ever. There were harsh words spoken, mostly about what an unfaithful bastard I was. Too true. But that was then...<br /><br />...and this is now. It's why, as Pappy, I am faithful to Mrs. Pappy. <br /><br />That, and no one else is one bit interested in me.<br />Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-49082398200185600532015-05-17T16:41:22.419-07:002015-05-17T16:41:22.419-07:00U talk about Rita like theirs sumthing WRONG w/her...U talk about Rita like theirs sumthing WRONG w/her yo!!

My...Daniel and Ryan, the dad should do his dad job. My son is the father of two girls, and he is like a referee at the Friday Night Fights. Who knows what will happen in just a few short years when they are both teenagers or (gulp) college age?<br /><br />A dad should intercede when necessary. The situation here reminds me of the Lovin' Spoonful and the song, "Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind:"<br /><br /><i>"When in walks her father and takes you in line, and says 'Better go home, son, and make up your mind.'"</i><br /><br />J D and Ryan, Joanie Cunningham? I had to scour the memory banks, but, oh yeah. I even looked up Erin Moran online and apparently the poor girl's marriage has been worse than a love comic: house foreclosed, living in a trailer park, then evicted...tsk tsk. Here's hoping there will be some sort of happy ending for that Unhappy Days girl.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-54854423780542329792015-05-15T04:30:12.783-07:002015-05-15T04:30:12.783-07:00No effein' way!

She really should have thanked Rita for uncovering his true personality. I agree with Daniel: there's really no likeable character in this one. Not even the "I just want peace and quiet and everyone else be damned" father.<br /><br />Ha! Joanie Cunningham! Boy, JD, you have to be of a certain age to get that reference, and to know about Erin Moran's Christian conviction.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05389353987133860660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-12228734910053172902015-05-15T03:18:34.038-07:002015-05-15T03:18:34.038-07:00"Swing out Sisters"...
I really like the..."Swing out Sisters"...<br />I really like the art (the close-ups of the girls give me a "Jack Kirby" feeling), though I can understand why the guy turned to Christian comics after working on these plots.<br />Of course it could have been handled the Italian way (much more blood involved), but it looks like the kind of comic Joanie Cunningham would have loved.<br />J_D_La_Rue_67https://www.blogger.com/profile/13620923188907903146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-41287200494158679292015-05-15T02:30:19.426-07:002015-05-15T02:30:19.426-07:00Eh, whom am I supposed to like here?

As per your remarks, Jeff does not seem reliable; Fran lacks the good sense to forewarn Jeff about Rita; Fran's father needs to be pinned against a wall and to have the <i>Fear of G_d</i> put into him.
