True doesn't want hear about all the doom and gloom in the world. Especially when he can't beat someone over it.

She's enjoying spreading bad news that no one can do any thing to help. Out the door, disaster tourist. Justified!

Thinking this isn’t as much about gloom and doom as he doesn’t want his wife scared to death about her own kids.

Didn’t they have small pox vaccinations in 1907?

Googling around, it looks like the smallpox vaccine wasn't administered until the kid was 1.

Hey, wait, are these the same triplets he dove out of a window over in a previous comic? Didn't realize there was continuity between these strips.

He's remarkably restrained in this one. Not a single crushed skull or broken nose.

He's not going to beat his wife's friend. She's the only one who puts him in his place.
