Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for January 14, 2022

watches point go sailing way over her head

Bucky, all this time you are giving the Ferret Channel good footage. Plus making it impossible to sneak up on Fungo.

He’ll get to Iceland the same way MMM gets to the US.

Great line Satchel.

Satchel’s stupidity is one of the things that makes this comic strip so enjoyable.

The Charge of the Bucky Light Brigade coming up .

Satchel .. you’re more likely to see the sun in Iceland than in Greenland … better take a Geography refresher course …

If you want total darkness, go to northern Alaska. The sun comes up in Iceland in Winter. It just doesn’t hang around for more than an hour or two.

Seems like he’d feel vi-illiad

10/10 last time satchel said that about seattle

Bucky’s mind is on an unending Odyssey…

Icelandair

Seeing yourself as you truly are can be either a good learning experience or something to feel insulted and angry about. Your choice.

Bucky putting it there would make interesting ferret TV.

Beware of weasels bearing gifts.

But who knew that Bucky had read the Illiad? I’m impressed, actually!

Satch comprehends just as much as always.

“Iliad” has only one “L”, youse

LOL…….again!

Technically, the story of the Trojan Horse isn’t part of the Iliad; that ends with Hector’s funeral, not with the fall of Troy.

Since Odysseus conceived and built the horse it’s mentioned in the Odyssey, but our main source for the story is in the (Latin) Aeneid (which of course tells of the Trojan Aeneas’s escape from Troy after its fall). There are known to have been original Greek versions, but they exist only in fragments.

All of Iceland is below the arctic circle, except for the tiny tip of one peninsula. So they get sunlight every day, even on the winter solstice.

9/10

I thought it was Seattle?

I thought it was in Lancre

There was that one classic Sunday installment of this strip years ago when Satchel thought tennis balls were edible because they “came in a Pringles can”. And Bucky’s response was, “Man, I’m about to lose it. He is SO STUPID!!!!” And we see that again today. Any doubters still out there??
