Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for February 13, 2023

That’s our lovely little Cul de Sac neighborhood?! … It looks more like Hitler’s Berghof retreat!

It looks like the Tower of Babel, as in perpetually babbling preschoolers.

You can see why Dill’s brothers built a trebuchet—-to defend the Cul de Sac castle wall!

The most famous Crusader castle was Krak de Chevalier, or known here as Krak de Sac!

Marvelous explanation for those highway sound deadening walls!

Any excuse, Alice ; )

The second panel is about the best depiction of the typical American development pattern that I’ve ever seen. ♪ Pave the world ♫♪ Worship the automobile ♫

Kinda looks like an ugly version of Assisi.

Alice Otterloop discovers the outer loop.

It’s a sound barrier, nary hearing a discouraging word from the traffic…

That’s why they put a fence around the cemetary, people are dying to get in there!

I had a weird dream last night like this cartoon… only I was in a loooooooog multi lane line of cars… inching forward!!!… with no end of the line visible… but I have no idea where we were all going.. It WAS a dream!

It’s cheaper than putting the traffic underground.

That is true, Beni, but it’s also to keep the wee ones in. Is the moat filled with Sooti monsters and shopping carts? Alice, that looks like the perfect spot for throwing some mulch. Did you fill your pockets?

A Walled Community with a valid purpose! Beni explains it well, but Alice wants a still higher perch! And why not? Four-year-olds need all the extra height they can get!
