Great strip, Dave! But it's a little unfair of you to post that at the beginning of the work week. Now Saturday just seems that much further away. But at least now I know what I'm doing this weekend!

I would also like to point out that "Boxers 'n Sherbet" would be a good name for an album. Or, if it were a country band, "Boxers 'n Sherbert."

I thought this strip was interesting in terms of Brad Guigar's theory that strips need to end with the key word of the punchline.
The punchline is clearly "Boxers and sherbet" but the attitude expressed in "Bam" puts the strip over the top. That extra word, especially being a little more hip than Gramp usually is, made me laugh the hardest. Great stuff!
