It has been a while since we have heard from The Friday Funnies’ resident philosopher, Hugh Jass. He chimes in today after his long absence.

Why did you just try singing the two songs above?
Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog’s face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?
