A little bit of Lola lives inside all of us. Now, if we could just discover how to let her out! Lola''s the 70-something firecracker who graces a comic strip by the same name. She''s snappy. She''s quick with a comeback. She not only knows exactly what she wants, she gets it with great regularity.Now with American Idle: A Lola Collection, Lola delights readers with more than a year of her best single-frame and strip senior adventures. She''s full of her trademark vim, vigor-and vinegar-every step of the way. This aged wonder may live with her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, but she follows no one down the path of life. Where man has gone before-be it bowling, a favorite park bench, or behind the wheel-this cigar-chomping woman will go . . . faster, more fearlessly, and with far more attitude.

""Sometimes I feel like I should build a parking lot in front of my medicine chest and open a pharmacy.""-LolaDon''t mess with Lola. She''s too old for you to be asking, she bucks stereotypes like a bronco, and she suffers adult sons, daughters-in-law, and potential suitors badly.In Old Age Isn''t for Sissies, Lola continues her brash march through life, stepping over proper diet, exercise, and political correctness. She''s a take-no-prisoners, cigar-chomping, beer-on-the-doily kind of gal who will whack you with her cane if given half a chance. But Lola''s lack of charm is her most charming trait-and what makes her such a delight to fans of all ages.
