    I think she’s still thinking about that “toxic” thing.

    And as far as Pogo comics, I remember reading them as a kid. All I specifically remember though was “Deck the Halls” being desimated by the characters trying to recall the lines (with Boston Charlie). Oh, yeah. And “We have met the enemy, and he is us!”Seemingly true words.

    I guess there is no rule about waitstaff taking two or three days away to sneak off in her boyfriends backpack for a little adventure. I am still amazed out how much went on in the previous arc in so few hours. @Mr_sherman: She’s a koala. If she was to be based on a critter from down under, she could have been based on a duckbill platypus, who does have a toxic claw. and some say proof God has a sense of humor.

    I love the look on Holly’s face…. in three and four. Good enough. I may have born that face tonight when I babysat my sister in law. That is the only time my brother can get out of the house. My sister and I take turns. Yeah. My look exactly. Not Holly’s, but Linda’s /You must think that I don’t get along with anyone?Well, I love all of you!! :>)Blessed Be

    Look at the attention to detail in the construction of the dressing mirror. It’s simple but perfectly observed. And it has little squat, bow-legs, just like some animals’.

    “You know what, Holly? If you want me to wear 37 pieces of flair while not excreting toxins, why don’t you just make the minimum 37 pieces of flair and give me an extra thick hair net?”

    Linda has the same look on her face as a waitress in a diner I once knew. It was in the late 70’s and this waitress seemed to always work the weekend 10 PM to 6 AM shift. Nice friendly lady, in her 40’s and about 4 foot 11 or so. I would go to this diner after my weekend job and get a cup of coffee and a bit to eat before heading home for 4 hours of sleep. I “bounced” at a club during the weekends and the club would close around 3:30 or 4:00 in the morning.

    One early morning, about 4:30 AM, a couple got overly amorous in a booth to the point were, well this is a GP rated site. That was the waitress’s exact look only she was pouring coffee. Thank God the pot only had about a cup and a half in it before she started to pour. The coffee went all over the counter. I was turning to see what the “ruckuses” was behind me just as the hot liquid start to spill over the edge. If I did not turn on the stool, the coffee would have ended in my lap.

    Needless to say, the XXX rated live show was cut off by a policeman who was on his dinner break. Things were a little less “strict” back then, he just told them to get home and next time rent a hotel room.

    TSOJ responded to my post Sunday re Beethoven’s birthday late Sunday PM CST, which was Monday morning for him, and recommended Richard (Cul de sac) Thompson’s Poor Richards Almanac which recently touched on Beethoven. The words in that one comic are to be sung to Beethoven’s music he wrote for Schiller’s poem Ode to Joy, which concludes Beethoven’s Ninth, although LVB left out the stanza which would have distressed his Habsburg friends.

    Sometimes I see a reference to Endtown 1.0. Is that a story from before Al & Gustine? If so, it is available anywhere?

    Endtown 1.0 was Al and Gustine. That was the first storyline, only added here after the fact.

    Hilarious! Not a muscle in Linda’s face so much as twitches. Guess that’s what one calls shock. And as always, Holly’s response is priceless. Hmmm, Holly in frame 1 reminds me of early Holly and Wally storyline.

    She’s more stocky than chubby. Its just that we originally saw Linda’s mutated form in an ill fitting biosuit (which was originally stretched to Linda’s statuesque premutation form. Her normal outfit is a bit loose, making it hard to judge her figure. She definitely looks a lot better in something more form fitting.
