  2. @jdas- Johnny doesn't have just one condition... and even his doctors don't understand all the conditions he has.

    But it doesn't matter anyway: the real meaning of this strip is Johnny's ongoing fight to stay optimistic in the face of adversity. Just like the rest of us.

  3. Johnny's kind of the opposite of a hypochondriac, isn't he? He actually DOES have that disease...and that one, and that one, and that one... but he doesn't go out of his way to imagine having them.

  4. JeepGuy - naw, he has Medical Death Book Girl (Merideth?) to do that for him...

  5. I would guess that if the good doctor got through med school, and a residency, without sobering up, it might have been with the help of Merck White Fluffy Flakes.

  6. @Pete, shouldn't that be "Merideath"?
