Mary Worth 1,055

For those of you considering a career change, I'd like to recommend this wonderful book by Nicholas Lore:


Or you could just have coffee with Mary, get over your crush, throw away your college degree and years in your chosen field, and begin standing in line with thousands of other applicants. Enjoy that plan. Or, rather, not-plan.

And if you sell pharmaceuticals, you have an excuse to stalk Dr. Cory again.

And now, a special note from Wanders to our newest readers. I just want to welcome you to this blog about Mary Worth, the greatest comic strip of all time. It has made me laugh for years, and so in 2007, I started Mary Worth & Me, just to throw my thoughts out into the universe. I figured they had about as much a chance at being discovered as Voyager's Golden Record. But to my surprise, I quickly found a small group of terrestrials who all seem to be as fascinated with life in Santa Royale as me. I hope you'll hang out here, I hope you'll register as a Santa Royale Citizen and follow this blog, and I hope you'll be willing to share your thoughts and post comments as often as you like. All I ask is that you keep it family friendly, which is the Mary Worth way.

And remember to read your free secret messages by holding your cursor over each image. They're free AND good for you.

Mary has literally punched in Liza's face using only her most innocent smile and a loosely veiled threat.

Mary Worth, you diabolical dame! One cup of coffee is all it took for you to convince Liza to quit her job, thus saving Mountview Hospital the trouble of firing her and Dr. Drew Cory the trouble of moving back to Vietnam.

Speaking of other possibilities, there's a very handsome doctor in the booth behind you.

Now that they've traded seats, and Marge has filled their cups to the rim with Brim, things are a lot less messy. At least until Mary pours Brim all over her hand.

Liza, by "mess" are you referring to this plot... or the forced perspective of this diner?

When I first read the phrase, "diligence as a nurse," I didn't know what was going on. I figured we'd moved on to some other story. Even after I had read, "is being questioned," it still took me a moment to get it. The words "Liza" and "diligence" have never been used in the same sentence before.

For those who have been accusing Mary of knowing everybody, I think this conversation is evidence that Mary really doesn't know Liza at all.

Something about today's strip put me back in the mood for my favorite Blue Man Group video. I know it wasn't that long ago, but I can't help it.

Does Liza have time to go to the diner across the street? Of COURSE she has time. She has hours to hang out and talk with Mary about the second warning she received from the head nurse about never actually working.

So this is what goes on in the ladies' room... Ladies don blue terrycloth robes while they smoke there mentholated Camel filters.

Uh... no, it's too easy... I'm not going to say it. I'm not even going to say it.
