Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 11, 2024

Run, Petey! I think I hear your mother calling you.

What a strange kid.

“Have to do… um… things…”

Is Ernesto old enough to shave?

Yeah yeah….my mother’s calling me….see ya!

For America’s children, the name “Rutherford B. Hayes” is synonymous with “fun.”

I agree with Petey. He’s imaginary.

You’re right, Peter. No matter what he claims, Ernesto is definitely imaginary!

I can’t decide if Ernesto is more disturbing with the beard or without. I think with the beard I would tend to overlook his “eccentricities.”
