Lot of good memories!
But, no Colonel Hoople? We used to kid my granddaddy because he looked exactly like the Colonel.
Colonel Hoople shoulda been Major.
Your wish is my command.
BTW, I don't recall the strip, but I found out yesterday that there was a character in it by the name of "Martha Hoople." Now that explains the name of the minor early-'70s band, "Mott the Hoople." I had always thought it was just nonsense sounds, but apparently it's a play on "Martha Hoople." Anyone recall the name of Mott the Hoople's big hit? A: "All the Young Dudes." I really liked that song, back when I was a young dude myself.
