Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for March 24, 2021

Duct tape fixes all!

Spud, at least the whisky won’t show. The date you have with the circa 1976 bottle of Merthiolate is going to be much worse!

Dad: “Now, this may sting a little and then we’ll amputate.”

…

Dad: “Where’d the Bucketheaded-kid go?”

C’mon spud getting a staph infection is one of the joys in life

Meet Wallace and the gang: We got: Wallace the brave Spud the [CLASSIFIED] Amelia the sadist Rose the smart And seagull

I remember doing that

I appreciate Dad McClelland crouching down eye-to-eye with his small son to examine the injury and propose a reassuring fix. Good Dad.

Always keep whiskey on the boat, in case of emergencies!

What, no bullet to bite on, too?

Spud’s head looks like a pin cushion.

The only questionable part of Dad’s solution is if the whiskey isn’t top shelf.

me too Spud me too i do not want an infection

Dads are cool!

This will sure be fun when he pulls the “bandage” off…

Whole lotta uses for duct tape. It’s even on the Space Station. For a band aide though, I’m not so sure. No problem with the whiskey though…..

From personal experience – putting a cloth wrap on that, THEN the duct tape works better.

Dr. Dad to the rescue.

I want want to switch to Wallace’s family.

When you pull off that duct tape it’s going to hurt worse than ever

The whiskey should kill the staph.

Gnarly DUDE! a true scar and you’ll get new one from the duct tape

One of my Dad’s solutions for cuts was to put a piece of toilet paper on it. I managed to climb a chain link fence with prongs on top. Of course I pierced my hand! Out came the toilet paper haha

It’s all in how you frame it. See Mother Madeline putting a positive spin on a glum situation in yesterday’s Cul de Sac.

Once again, hold the M-16 vertical out front, bull your way through the thorns, keep on keeping on, see Doc after we stop 5 miles later to clean up the cuts.

Duct tape? That’s gonna hurt later.
