Youse can please all of the peoples some of the time.

Thanks for getting Hagar and Hilda in a poll for me, SH!

I don't know much about those kinds of cars really, but maybe a poll on "lamest cars" would be in order. I know more about those.

Since Broom Hilda has Zero votes, I'd say it was a mistake.

Remember this. It was a Soap opera instead of a comic. Most bizarre creation in human history.

I mean who gets off on reading a soap opera in a newspaper. Take seconds to read and then you have to wait for the next "exciting" development?
