Holt Rinehart and Wilson, 1975 When a man goes hopelessly into hock so that he can lay his hands on a $6,000 Buick Electra 225, complete with 8-track stereo, fur-lined bucket seats, and a gleaming chrome stallion mounted on the hood, the last thing he wants to hear from his woman is that a Gremlin would have been a better buy. But Clyde's stylish new wheels couldn't impress girl friend Virginia Slade less, and, to his vast displeasure, he finds himself sans chick on his nightly run to wow the dudes at Burger King. And so it goes at Walden West: Clyde and Virginia at irreparable odds while, off in the wings, roommate Joanie Caucus does her best to ignore the fracas and concentrate on her own problems at Berkeley Law School. Add to that Zonker's visit to the offices of Rolling Stone, B.D.'s bringing the sensitive subject of women and contact sports into his huddle, the Economic Summit Telecast, and the Reverend Scot Sloan's publication of his memoirs, and the happy result is the flakiest Doonesbury book yet. Garry Trudeau still resides in New Haven. He is often seen cruising for girls in his blue Vega station wagon.
