Danae: Wait......sea turtles can't fly.
Turtle: We can't? Oh, dear...
Danae: AAAHHHH I HATE it when reality sneaks into a nice, fanciful dream...
Lucy: I heard that's why economists don't like to sleep.
How much is actually economists and how much is politicians and reporters picking which numbers to shout about.And how much is fluff-headed professors teaching politically oriented economics instead of the real thing.
Please Danae, don’t stop dreaming. On another score, with economists, we always known they engaged in fantasy; someone should continually send them to bed very early.

Ahhh, redo… I have no problem with flying turtles. Terry Pratchett makes it work quite well.
I had to fix a minor spelling fail.

Is the memory from a dream any less of a memory than one from reality?……..Which one is real….?

Hey, wait a minute! Where’s the sock hanging on the end of the bed? We must still be in a dream…….Great, I like walking around in dreams…….

@Varnes“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away.” George Carlin, I think…a wonderfully sensible man.

I’m lovin’ the Winsor McKay shout-out in the last panel. Looks like Danae found Nemo.

The real problem economists have is that they don’t want to be awake either…
