Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 17, 2020

what amazement to Alice’s preschool classmates

Once again, a little over 10 years ago, Richard posted a blog entry regarding this strip:

I love that even Kevin, bucket-head that he is, is allowed to be part of this group.

I can hardly wait for the next communiqué!

Haha!! Love this! Thanks Richard!

If you’re going to be a real Press Secretary, Alice, you’ll have to sharpen your vague innuendos!

“Rhubarb, rhubard. Ogg, Ogg”

If someone called this a play date when I was a kid, I would have barfed.

This is great! The kids are reporters/theatrical actors/kids! Imagination is wonderful, especially with interactive Alice….

Richard had amazing vision and total accuracy.

Hubbub too. This is epic.

Word travels fast in the cul-de-sac.

“Consternation and Hubbub?“ I’m going to use that phrase!

Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles!

“What’s the hubbub, bub?” ☺

We ask you to please respect our privacy in this challenging time.

I’ve been trying to set up my own Playmate Playdate for years without luck.

Have a care that the hubbub does not turn into a rumpus.

The tabloids are going to go nuts over this.

That Petey is HAVING a playdate with Andre Chang is one thing; that he’s “enjoying” it I’ll have to hear from his own mouth.

i bet it is a blast living in that neighborhood. i just love the imagination of these kids!

For more in-depth coverage see the news at 11…

Cute, but Friday’s strip already showed confirmation of the playdate (i.e. Dill clearly knew).

Though there are so many to choose from, this is my favorite Cul de Sac strip.
