In today's Dinette Set, I'm still confused about this hurricane in Illinois thing.
A nonsense set up doesn't suddenly make sense if you just say a bunch of fictional people also believe in the nonsense.
That said, it's somehow perfectly fitting that the characters in the Dinette Set can't understand the Harry Potter phenomena. It is a book, after all.

Because stuff like this should not go without comment.

Last week, the Chicago area got hit by a massive storm with 80-mph winds in places. But, given the strip's lead time, I guess the hurricane reference was just the usual nonsequitur
I assume the gas line was due to fears of a gas shortage caused by hurricane-induced disruption of Gulf Coast oil refineries -- there were certainly plenty of lines here right before Katrina. Burl and Dale (and possibly Joy, it's not clear) haven't figured out the extra step in the logic, though, and just think everyone else is even stupider than they are.
Look at all the man-sized holes in the fence. Are they at the Mexican border?
