What’s old is new
After a gap of not quite a year, the GoComics feed for Randolph Itch restarted. This one for 2022 March 7 seems to be the first cartoon in the cycle.

Saturday Morning Oys – March 5th, 2022
An OY-Ewww :
This semi-CIDU OY is from Boise Ed, who notes the apparent error that they are doing downhill skiing but the text is about cross-country. But why is it not actually in error? Hmm?
I didn’t clock it
Thanks to Karl for sending this in, and saying “Seems like it is trying to make the joke about a broken clock being right twice a day, but how that plays with new years day is a mystery to me.”
Pardon my sweep
Um, he sees it on the ventriloquist’s *right* wrist (hidden from us)?
