Wow. For a good solid minute this edition of The Lockhorns had me pretty baffled. Leroy is checking the mailbox (which is strangely in the middle of the sidewalk) and is disappointed not to find 1,068 letters with money. Loretta mockingly notes the situation. At first I thought this was a reference to some sort of Publisher’s Clearing House competition, however the 1,068 letters really wouldn’t make sense. Leroy has most likely fallen for some sort of chain letter scheme. This fits his everyman, get rich quick persona. The specificity of 1,068 letters is somewhat odd, but that’s The Lockhorns for you. Also of note is the lazy way the street has been rendered – merely white space.
