    Well, he didn’t say the end of the world, just “the end.”

    I see at least one face in the bushes.

    I get three bushes faces, one in each segment. There’s at least one face in the steaming pile of leftovers. The whole column of smoke does look like a figure, but it’s kinda teste.

    I’d like to be telekentic so I could ‘summon’ large quantities of cash! LOL Or I’d prefer invisibility so I could walk into banks, and ‘borrow’ money! LOL

    ALLAN Is the word invisible or criminal? Borrow or steal? Do you work for the government?

    I’m pretty sure there’s a full figure in the smoke, and the cotton balls make me laugh….

    I see several faces in the remains. One of them looks like a doggie. Aw, I hope he wasn’t walking his doggie too!

    In truth the onlooker’s making a logical non sequitur. There’s no reason to believe that “the end” meant the signbearer’s end - that was just an unhappy coincidence (rather like some of the results that came out of the Oracle of Delphi).

    Just to give you all your daily dose of pedanticism… ;)

    And by the way, Thom, I’m offended. No particular reason, I just feel cranky today.

    Helloooooo Birdbrainiacs!

    Johanan - thank you for being so offended by the ashes to ashes scene. I was too!

    Carmy - yep, you’re right.

    And there are MANY faces in the pile of steaming ash. Actually, there are many, many faces in the end.. are they memories of his past? Are they just ghostly visages? Or are they just for fun? You be the judge… :)

    When writing this one, I debated with myself whether the smolderer should have been a he or a she. I thought if it were she-ender, her name would be too obvious (Barb B. Cue). So I made it a he-ender. Cany you guess his name?

    Oh, and thanks for not flaming out after reading this cartoon, which will self-destruct in 8 hours and 36 minutes… (thought it should be sooner).

    Thom

    Hey, Thom…..

    the only he name I can come up with would be Burt Reynolds for the movie “The End”…

    Or, Frank who sang “And now, the end is near….”

    LOVE that pile of faces in the ashes!!!!!!! You really outdid yourself in this one!!!!!

    hopeandjoy2…..this is one of the pictures we took when we visited Roslyn, WA 2 weeks ago. It’s of the radio station KBHR, where Chris in the morning did his show (Northern Exposure). They left a lot of the town as it was during the filming of the show 20 years ago. This radio station still had stacks of records, and cassettes and turntable, etc.

    Carmy , thanks for the tip about the face in the woman’s upper body……that was a really good one, Thom.

    Thom, maybe his name is Cris Py .

    All I can say is, that’s one bad case of heart burn. Or maybe he’d been exercising and could feel the burn.

    I’m with LafInLarry on the faces, but I agree about the woman’s torso too. The name of the ex-prophet could be Char Coal, or Redd Hot, or Will Burn.

    I could be offended–if I wasn’t worried about getting too hot under the collar.

    He knew because his boss at the electric company told him to warn people away from the downed power line. Too bad he tripped.

    Doctor Toon said, I keep forgetting whether I’m Psychic or Psychotic.

    That reminds me of a story…
