Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for November 03, 2016

I hope Vic doesn’t taste the “sting” that is the Selfy trademark as of late !

Good morning Vista Bill and alla rest a you zoo keepers !

In each and every person

Chances are few and far between

Yet in every situation

Something positive can be gleaned

A lesson here or opportunity to share

No one needs to go it alone

There’s always a gentle soul who cares

A guiding light in the brutal storm

Yet even with a helping hand

To lift us from the grime and the dirt

There’s always a few who fall through the cracks

Preferring to administer hurt

Sad but true there’s nothing to do

But let them go their way

You can’t save them all

Some are destined to fall

For their sins a price they’ll unfortunately pay

Just give Selfy a shovel, and have him clean up after the animals. It’ll be in the same line of work he was doing for Bellowthon.

Oh, yeah – morning Gweedo, Avenger, Vista Bill and the rest of the crimestoppers!

The Cubs won! The Cubs won! Wow, first the Red Sox, now the Cubs! What a century!

The zoo is Selfy’s bank? A very safe place to hide your money if you choose the right cage well.

I also like avenger09’s offering today.

Been awhile since we’ve been treated to a Gould-style chase-and-pursuit.

I like the joke that politicians and hoods are basically the same thing, though sometimes that is no laughing matter.

Good morning fellow DT fans!

Words of wisdom, avenger09. Very nice,

Now perhaps we understand Selfy’s penchant for fancy clothes.

Happy birthday JPuzzleWhiz

…and…

Belated happy birthday cpalmeresq

Well, Vic is quite knowledgeable about politicians it seems.

Ba-dup-bump! (crash)

Good one, Av. Ya know, I rem ember when you couldn’t string two words together. You’ve come a long way!

Isn’t Lena, the Nitrates’ hyena, now a resident at the city zoo?

Thank you to everyone who took the time to let me know you enjoyed my poem. And for those that didn’t like it, thanks for your silence! :-)

Selfy is going to ground at his old haunt. I hope Vic is not a victim! —Nor implicated in Selfy’s nefarious misdeeds.

But I have a bad feeling that Vic may become the wrong kind of fodder….

To all who sent me good wishes, thank you so much!
