Today’s Zippy takes on differences between the sexes (at least in Dingburg):

Women affiliative, men competitive. (On telling the men from the women: the women wear earrings, the men do not.)

An assortment of names: Imelda as in Imelda Marcos; Izelda possibly a play on that, or an allusion to iZelda (an iPhone version of the game Zelda); Litvak ‘Lithuanian Jew’; beefeater ‘guard at the Tower of London’ (or Beefeater gin).
