It should be mentioned that posting this recent Baldo drawing here today is self-directed at the chief leisure-lover here at Chez Dilys. It would be a regrettable irony to select something from a charming Hispanic-oriented comic strip, as somehow pointed toward that community, inasmuch as our near Hispanic neighbors exhibit a genius for willingness to work that seems to have no end.
The point is that happiness includes in its components its own pursuit. As usual, Graciela is the character who has the last word.
Seems to me that for the last decade or so, the comics pages have become increasingly unappealing..."Baldo" is one of the very few cartoons that contains recognizable human beings.
