Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for March 19, 2016

DJ looking maniacal, once again!

.Happy Spring Weekend Guys!

Gweedo greeted,Mornin’ hopalong, VB !-—————————————————————-.G’mawnin’ Gweedo! Hope you aren’t snowed in!

Appropriately menacing look to today’s strip….

Question on Panel 1: Are “vistors” anything like “visitors”?

DJ is missing some key information about the “missing visitors.”

Will DJ wear a tie in the “boardroom”?

Marking time, re-establishing DJ as a villain. Something should happen tomorrow (Sunday) to advance the plot….

DJ channeling his outer Wolverine in panel three.

Who’s the assistant?

“Sy.”

Sy?

“Si.”

I expect to see knotted bed sheets hanging from their window and them disappearing without a trace ! (if they know what’s good for um)Since Specs isn’t too bright and Spicy is the type to stand by her man, I doubt either of them will figure out what’s good for them until it’s too late.

Wolverine on steroids.

To his credit, he had a good dentist.

JPuzzleWhiz responded,**-——————————————————————-.Shadow’s Keyboard is a Lenovo lighted mechanical (‘clicky’) gaming keyboard. I do not do gaming but I like the lighted (four intensities) and the ‘clicky’ keys. Here ’tis:.http://tinyurl.com/hsrvzaa

JPuzzleWhiz stated,I like Shadow’s keyboard! Perhaps I’ll get one like it, if I can find it.-———————————————————————————.Here’s a closer look. I detached the wrist rest from my keyboard...http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-Gaming-Mechanical-Keyboard-GX30K04088/dp/B013HJR3GO/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458407298&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=lenovo+lighted+gaming+keyboard

For those that are interested, the small keyboard used on Comet 2 is a mini multimedia keyboard like this:..http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C8I7UK4?keywords=mini%20multimedia%20keyboard&qid=1458409486&ref_=sr_1_19&sr=8-19

There’s something to be said for wired keyboards if you’ve got adequate physical desktop space. The wireless keyboard can sometimes be a bit laggy and can sometimes lose connection. But with a wireless keyboard and mouse combo there’s significantly less clutter, which is why I prefer a wireless keyboard even if I sometimes have to wait a second or two for the computer to catch up with my typing when I’m on a roll.

Gweedo asked,Any opinions on the contoured style board ?-———————————————————————————.Like this? I never tried one..

Boardroom; read embarkation point back to the Apparatus !

He can’t send them back quite yet. He still need Specs to show him where the hidden safe is.

Lenovo keyboard with lighted keys..

my sincere apologies to avenger09. I got carried away trying to be helpful. I promise to behave properly tomorrow.

NightGaunt49 mentioned,I like that lighted keys feature.-———————————————————————-.It helps me a lot since I work in semi-darkness (really). Plus it looks really cool!

Not that it isn’t available elsewhere online, but SirusXM Radio Classics just ran Dick Tracy in B-Flat.

Their schedule rotates through Wednesday I think, when they swap out this week’s episodes for different ones.

Gweedo mentioned,I may be lucky enough to find one in the recyke bin that comes with the plug-in doohickey.-———————————————————————-.If I am offered one to test, after I test it, I will send it to you, Gweedo. I’m “old school” when it comes to keyboards. One of the reasons I enjoy my mechanical (“clicky”) keyboard. They are making a comeback.

Will Dj pound furiously on Specs in a fit of rage if the box is empty ?

Specs had better hope it’s not empty, but it’s not really his fault if it is.
