Original 1963 Text: Andrew and I were on our honeymoon and very much in love! That would be enough…for a time! Then I would change my husband, and make ours a…”Perfect Marriage”
HUSBAND: Terri…you’re terrific!
WIFE (thinking): How can you be so crude?
Transcript of today’s Last Kiss comic:
Scene: Man and woman embracing and about to kiss.
WOMAN: Alone at last, my darling! We have 15 minutes tops before the kids figure out we’re on the roof…and bust through the door!
CAPTION: Even in lockdown, romance will find a way!
