family that has serious problems with their command of the
English language. While they never do anything wrong, their
butchering of the language leads to hilarious mix-ups,
misunderstandings, and comic arrests time and time again.
Let me introduce you to Steve Ala's new comic strip characters:
Meet Dad, who has been in the United States since 1963, but
whose English has never improved. He is a cheapskate and a
penny pincher, still driving the first station wagon ever made.
Meet Leenuts, dad’s wife, who is a religious zealot and has given
everything up for Jesus except her bible, cross, and robe, and
annoyingly sends Evangelical ministers lots of money.
Meet Alpo, the thirty-four year old son who went to college to
become a communist. He’s been in college for 17 years, can’t
hold a job, and his penny pinching father is annoyed to no end
about all the money spent on a college education and his son just
keeps getting stupider.
