BTW… I keep meaning to explain how Cleo gets those big weapons out so fast.
The Cliffords live in a smallish house…. Cleo is a short dog…
Yet somehow… poof! A tank appears, or a bazooka…. or a….whatever this is….
I’m not up on weapons…. looks like a cross between a teeny howitzer and a telescope…. but I know one of you will tell me.
Anyway… it came out of nowhere.
That’s because, as a card-carrying member of the Cartoon Dogs Union…. a branch of the Cartoon Characters Union….
Cleo is entitled to a certain amount of what is known in the toon world as “Hammerspace.”
It’s where Wiley Coyote stores his dynamite, and his giant mallets…
Bugs keeps a lot of carrots…. some characters even store potholes and other negative spaces! None of it visible till they pull it out, at a moment’s notice.
The thing is… it takes an awful lot of it to hide tanks and taco carts…. so I worry that Cleo’s in danger of using up her allotment, or being fined…. and it isn’t cheap.
Oh well… I suppose to a well paid Sherpa cartoonist like Nighthawks, the huge fines won’t matter.
I guess some dogs love snow. Please give them mine.
I know I’m lucky not to live where I have to deal with it….. and we just had several years of drought, so I’d hate to complain about these weeks of endless rain.
I will allow, though, that am very ready for later sunsets.
Hi, everybody!
Running even later than I was a few minutes ago….
