Frazz by Jef Mallett for October 24, 2016

    Hiya, Frazz fans. I thought that maybe the point of this past week’s arc was to think of the possibilities to amaze the teachers, in ways bad and good, if asked to list those things they wanted to do. Some could shock them while some could move them to tears. Maybe Caulfield could’ve said something about inventing a dribble proof travel mug and call it The Spaetzle (if I got the name right). Or maybe one of them says, “be a one hit wonder and somehow pen a song that provides me with royalties for life so I can take any job I want, if I want, as long’s as it’s what I really want to do. The pay doesn’t matter. It’ll be all in the experience for me because I’m as sensitive as a movie on Lifetime.” Or, “I’d like to become a teacher so I can teach other kids like Mrs. Olsen taught us.” Just imagine how wonderful that would make Mrs. O feel. One of em could say, maybe, "Become a know-it-all cartoonist and voice my supposed genius through a condescending janitor who doesn’t need the job anyway but takes it even knowing it puts someone less fortunate out of a job they actually need.

    OK. That last one was for BigPuma who probably won’t see it, me being beneath his contemp and all. Call a guy a dick and he holds it against me forever? Oops. Bad choice of words maybe.

    But you guys know what I mean. There was a lot of room for thought there last week and I have to wonder if Mr. Mallett was leaving it all to us and our imaginations. Ooo! I wonder if that made BP throw up in the back of his throat a little.

    Best regards, all. Mazl und barucha.

    I’m just amazed Mr. Mallett is having Frazz use something like a leaf-blower…

    Leaf blowers should be banned and lets get back to the raking an sweeping.

    Given his zest for physical activity, I’m surprised Frazz is using a leaf blower instead of a rake…

    If Frazz is working, and he is in his coverall, he uses the tools provided. Blowing the leaves off of the hard surfaces on a playground (onto grass) makes piles that would be tempting to a kid there early or late…

    No, the trouble with leaf blowers is the noise and dust floating and landing everywhere.Agree, rakes and brooms much better.
