Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 13, 2024

Cleary

Like I said, she doesn’t fear the fruit bats, but they might fear her.

I’ve got a pair of bats that love to hang around my house during the summer and eat all the mosquitos and other flying pests. I’ve named them Gomez and Morticia.

alice always did think outside the box

Oooooh the places she could goooooooo

LOL!

For 60 years I’ve been waiting for a practical jet pack when all this time I could have using flip flops and fruit bats

yes… did you forget who you were talking to. :J

She’s batty!

Flip Flop Flap Flap Flap Flaps

“Mom! Mom! I know what I want to be for Halloween! Queen of the Fruit Bats!”

“Sigh, now what?”

Yes.

I don’t they’d give her a ride. Too heavy.

Batty Alice wants bats to do her bidding. I think every kid fantasizes about flying. I tried umbrellas, capes and cardboard wings, and while fun they were ultimately unfruitful. I think the only time I kinda flew was when in the summer time we would get pulled behind a boat in an inner tube. When the boat would hit a wake you would go flying about 20-30 feet in the air, and if you were going fast enough you would skip another 20 feet across the water. Good Times!
