Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 07, 2015

How unfortunate and fortunate at the same time for Petey.

Petey is not having a good week.

He must have used a foot of clay. (… I know, I’m groaning myself…)

I am a comic Kid at heart. xoxoxo

Viola D’Amore – master of the silver lining.

That’s the way the clay pot crumbles.

Or the nagging husband….

oh to even have a display case. My school put one in for trophies…. for the sports teams, but somehow there was not enough money for one for the kids artwork. Now that we won state in ART and have trophies i wonder if we will ever get one.

I think that maybe Viola felt bad about what she had said yesterday, and tried to cheer Petey up. They shouldn’t have set up speech vibrations, though.

And on the name tag these words appear:My name is Petey Potterpoop, nerd of nerds:Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!Nothing beside remains.

One year, my yarn knitted onto burlap picture was used in an art display and I never got it back. I’m still bitter about it. :-)

This has an uncomfortable Charlie Brown feel to it, but at least the girl, thoughtless as she can be, isn’t as horrid as the Peanuts females (mean, self-centered, humorless).

Ashes to ashes…

Dust thou art. And unto dust thou shalt return.I think it was just scared into disintegration by Viola….

Wow! I never realized until now that the word “crumble” is onomatopoeic. Thank you, Richard, for enlightening me with the sound effect in the second panel!
