Abby knows DeForest Kelley’s birthday without even having to look it up.
TEXT OF COMIC:
What does it mean when a restaurant lists “close” as the closing time?
Huh?
I saw a restaurant downtown, and its hours were listed as “noon until close.”
That’s as if DeForest Kelley’s lifespan were listed on Wikipedia as “January 20, 1920 until he died.” Or if a history book said that World War II lasted “from September 1st, 1939 until it ended.” It’s a total lack of information!
Maybe the restaurant doesn’t close at the same time every night. Maybe it depends on how much business they have in the evening.
Then they should say that!
Well, why would they have to? What other meaning could it have?
It could mean “noon until a time CLOSE to noon.”
