Memory is the first thing to go

Remember back here when I mentioned that my niece Brittney, when she was about 5, provided this quote I used on the back cover of “APPEELING?”

“My Uncle John draws pictures and then you laugh.”
– BRITTNEY, niece

As I said, she’s now 19.

I saw her at Christmas, gave her a copy of the book, had her turn it over and read the quote…she had no recollection of saying that.

(The above panel with Brittney of the Squirrel Scouts is from the very last Bo Nanas strip. You can see the final week of Bo here.)
