Admittedly, I don't quite understand this one. I thought I understood it at first, but then I started really thinking about it.....

I get this one, but like the others they suck. Could you explain it to me? It's been driving me nuts. Here's what I don't get... When spoken out loud, the words "Wrecktangles" and "Rectangles" sound completely identical. If the two words were written out on paper, there would be a distinctive difference, but Dolly appears to be communicating to someone using her lips. If that's the case, then the quoted caption wouldn't make sense (and I know Bil Keane doesn't make mistakes). So what does this mean? I know there's got to be another angle to this that I'm missing...

This is my interpretation: Of course she's not saying the word "wrecktangles" differently than she sould say "rectangles," but that's the way she's thinking of the word. We're being let in on the joke. Thanks, Bill Keane!

Political commentary in Family Circus? It's deeper than that...
