Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 28, 2015
Transcript:
Dill: Did you go sledding? Petey: Alice did. I got snow in my mittens. Dill: My brothers are building a combination snowboard half pipe, luge run, ski jump, and log flume ride out of lumber scraps. They're hoping for a disaster worthy of heavy rotation on the internet! Alice: I don't want to hear about it. Home, Petey. Petey: Yes ma'am. Dill: Do I hear screams already?
