Big Top by Rob Harrell for August 02, 2009

I too prefer Letterman.

hello out there

wow….i fell into the big top twilight zone

Okey, corned beef hash with scrambled eggs, sauteed onion roasted garlic , roasted red peppers and sauteed onion. Belgian waffles with huckkleberry syrup, maple syrup and chokecherry syrup.

Hey, do you think that I have enough sauteed onion in the recipe?

Owlsly, so nice to have you about How is the Real World?

Cleo, your avatar looks like you’re having a heck of a time!

Good morning, Owlsly.

I think I’ll have some sauted onions, with a side of sauted onions. ;-)

Belgians with maple please! Pirate coffee?? Safe at last! No Akenta or Dry!!

I’ll have to by pass the rest of the comics, too tired, and too hard to think. Good night.

Good morning to all of you. Such a lovely Sunday isn’t it . As usual for this late night / early morning routine of mine, I just got done over at Pibgorn so here I am now.

Be careful what you say JFri, Akenta and Dry may not be here now, but you can bet I have a few tricks up my sleeve ( Ties JFri up to a chair, blows a kiss and leaves giggling ) .

Good morning everyone. I don’t see JFri so I guess he must have managed to escape. ladyw I don’t think whatever you tied him up with was strong enough - he’s a slippery guy.

cleo thanks for the breakfast - waffles were yummy.

Good Morning Tribe! I liked Leno better also, I loved when he went Jaywalking. Thanks for breakfast, cleo!

Good Sunday Morning!!!

Hi Carmy, Akenta, ladyw, cleo, JFri, Marg, bigg, and owlsy!

I’ll have some waffles with maple syrup and coffee from the pipeline.

Heading out to make the toonland merry-go-round.

(looking both ways so as not to get run over) (where’s JFri, Rad and Dry)

Marg - Thanks, my avatar fits last night perfectly. At dusk, my sweetie and I went for a skinny dip in the lake. I don’t care what anyone says, but swimming without a bathing suit is tops.

Pirate sighting on Free Range!

Cleo –Didn’t you mean to say skinny dippin’ is “without tops”? LOL

Back to toonland!!!!!

ZIIIIIIING

Carmy—I saw you running around somewhere through the comics. Just wanted to let you know, my girl *wolfangil says your avatar is cute.

Lonewolf, tell wolfangil thanks for me. Does she know who my avatar is? If not, it’s Loopy. Loopy is from an old Nick toon, Kablam.

Morning Tribe… Whooosh→

Carmy No, she doesn’t know who it is/was. Her hobby is quilting(she has made many beautiful quilts) and she is excellent with a sewing machine also. She even has a computerized sewing machine! She was thinking of making something similar because it’s so cute. I’ll let here know and we can google it.

Thanx Carmy.

Alright Rad, you better settle down my friend. I have found speed bumps out there. They’re out to sabotage the hit and runs!

Good Morning RAD.

There weren’t any speedbumps yesterday, just some carelessly places trashcans…

Hey those trashcans were very carefully placed!!

Hi Akenta

Who put the speed bumps out?

I’m with you Wink, give me Leno any day!! And those headlines are usually ROFLMAO funny!!

Morning Doc, 40 hours, GREAT!! Hey the exercise did you good!!! LOL

Morning Rad, Akenta, Carmy (LOVE YOUR AVATAR), LadyW, marg, Cleo, etc etc!!

I answered Doc first this AM because I read from the bottom up for a change.

Good Morning Doc.

The Nuked coffee pipeline has operating fine. I’ve had to change out the riveting from time to time and replace them with Titanium rivets. That seems to be holding better.

JFri you can run, but you can’t hide!!! Right Akenta?

Good Morning Dry.

This is one beautiful Sunday here in the Chi-town area!

Dry—All I get is an etc.? :-(

lol

;-P

It’s okay if he got away , I just wanted to show him that he needs to watch every direction. He’d never know which one of us girls may be lurking.

He must have used some of doc’s nuclear coffee to dissolve the ropes.

Sorry ((((Terry)))))! Too many names to type!

Cleo how is that bite? My first thought was what Owlsly said, spider bite!

At lease it was fun while it lasted.

It’s thunderstorming off and on here today, and humid. yesterday was beautiful. Hard to believe its August already!!

I LOVE SUMMER!!!

I’m enjoying a nice cool breeze, It’s refreshing after all the previous heat wave that i’ve had to deal with.

Dry —You must be getting our weather from the last couple of days.

ladyw —What are you talking about. You zip in and out as much as JFri! lol

Doc —Without the gossip, we wouldn’t be here!! I love it.

Speaking of gossip, where’s Shika?

Dry good morning, I did what I did, because I was trying to uphold the honor of all the ladies here.

Well Terry That’s because I don’t stay at the computer much.

Honor? Dangerous Trash cans-ropes-…………..What honor?

Ahhh ladyw, by the number of posts, I beg to differ. LOL

But, yeah, I agree, I’m not at the computer much either. Sure, I’m not!!!!!!!!!!

That’s ok Terry I will… lol also.

I was just displaying my silly side. was all.

Is everyone still stuck on page one.

Okay I will.

So where is everyone else at?

I better knock it off a little because i’m dominating page 2 so I’ll see you all later. breakfast calls.

LadyW where do you live? I know you said, I think, but I forget.

OK, I need to do a quick workout and then get ready for Noon Mass. I’ll be back after that.

Peace and Love Tribe

Welcome Holysmoke

Carson is definitely a classic.

doctortoon - I too was getting heavier than my ideal weight. Since April I have lost 25 lbs and have two more to lose before I reach my ideal weight. All I did was to cut out chips, nuts, chocolate and eat more fruit. Oh, and i still eat cheese, but I don’t snack on it. Chocolate is favorite thing, but I feel so much better and I am comfortable with my new diet. My key to success for me is to not buy snacks and have them in the house.

Dry I live in El Cajon Ca. A small city in the SanDiego county.

Dry - The bite doesn’t bother me. It just looks red in the center and black and blue on the outside. The bump has almost disappeared. Spider bites that I have had before usually have a little spot at the point of the bite, but who knows.

Letterman speaks his mind.

With all this weight loss talk I’m happy to sat that my dad has lost four pounds since he quit drinking alcohol.

ladywolf, I used to live in Spring Valley in the mid ‘90’s.

I miss living in northern California. It was so beautiful living in the forest back then.

El Cajon to me, is like a run down town, I don’t hardly ever see anyone smile when I’m outside.

Hello

Whoa! how did I do that?

ladyw —I thought I saw that you figured that large type out on another comic site.

See you all later

BYE

Cool DOC

Well, I’m off. BBL

ZIIIIIINNNGGGG!!!!!!

HI Everybody! I have a great story for everyone, but I am not a great storyteller so bear with me. I will be playing the role of Idiot. Idiot goes over to the folks house to help tear out the moldy walls and ceiling tiles from the basement. Uses a ATV to haul the wood out to a fire pit. Idiot wants to ride around faster, so unhooks the trailer and starts riding around through the uncut grass that is now 3 feet plus. As he is flying through the weeds, he sees a tree stump dead ahead. He only has enough time to realize that this isn’t going to end well. Idiot hits the tree stump, get bucked from the ATV like it was a bull, and crashes into the ground hard. The hamster has learned a valuable lesson: never drive recklessly through unknown terrain. The end.

doctortoon - I feel good that I am losing weight without dieting. All I basically did was start eating healthier. I never ate much fruit and now I crave it.

I mean I am not using a typical diet program.

I hope the idiot is feeling better. How was the rest of the trip (or maybe I should say visit)?

The idiot- er, I am fine, I got lucky, only got a lot of bruise and scrapes. Nothing worse. The ATV was fine too, which is also a good thing, because it wasn’t mine. The visit was awesome. I got to see a lot of family members I haven’t seen in a while. Even though we worked most of the time, any job where you use an ATV and a sledge hammer isn’t really a bad job. :)

johnnyd - I am glad the results weren’t more serious. An acquaintance of mine broke his collarbone in an idiotic ATV accident that was caused by reckless driving. He hit a tree. It’s funny how those trees keep moving out in front of a guys vehicle.

You did Terry I think it was Dog Eat Doug Where I figured out How to make my letters bigger.

LOL Doc, I am sure by now I would be too. I do more than my share of things that I haven’t quite thought though. Cleo, I was lucky that I wasn’t going that fast when I did hit that stump. I could have been much worse. Now I am off again for a while. BBML.

johnny, Ouch!! I’m glad your injuries were minor. ((((((((((((((johnny))))))))))))))))

Just haven’t fully mastered it yet. So it amazes me every time I’m successful at it

We live, Learn from our mistakes, and try to be more careful the next time.

I know that for now on when I climb the ladder to go into the swimming pool ( or any other ladder for that matter ) I’ll pay more attention to what I’m doing.

So you be careful johnnydoc5 and take care of your self.

I enter Big Top and find a vast empty landscape. Oh well, I just came to see what was up. I have done some watering,edging, weed whacking, fruit picking, fruit freezing and step’n’fetchin’.

I’m back, but I’ve got a bathroom door/door jamb to Fix/Sand/Make open and close better, etc. And I really should put the reman power steering pump on my ‘83 Lincoln before the warranty on the pump runs out. And the back 40 needs cuttin’.

Geez, I thought this was Sunday. Oh Well, BBL

Dang, I didn’t even see you post there MO.

How goes it? Good Afternoon and Howdy and all that jazz?!!

Again, BBL

johnnydoc: glad your bob-boo was no worse than it was.

Costco chicken, salad, rolls and veggies for dinner. Eat up. There’s ice cream for after if you want.

Good afternoon tribe

Thunderstorms here…..I think they came from Atlanta.

I’ve got some chicken wings with french fries to add to the lunch/dinner. Sugar cookies, too, made my my significant other. Oh heck….have some bing cherries, too. They’re in season and affordable for a short time at prices more easily handled.

I was moving some boxes and noticed my termite farm had a crack and a bunch are missing. Has anyone seen any termintes????

(Beams down, grabs ice cream & leaves note that reads: Shattered right shoulder, broke 3 ribs & bridge of nose in BAD ATV crash in ‘85. Wasn’t my last waltz with it either!)

Beam me up, Scotty!

(Gone before detection AGAIN!)

I’m back but I guess no one else is, except for that mysterious streak of light that keeps showing up at all odd hours!!! Whose name I won’t mention!

quaby so you are the one to blame for the termites!

I’m back for a little while(break from working on the door).

Wolfangil is on her way home so I need to get the door done.

Hi Quaby, Saucy, JFri(Geez, are you slow) and OF COURSE DRY!

Dry Blame? moi I am the victim…my farm got cracked by the pesky movers. i keep trying to fix my computer but it is always slow….so I cracked the case today and found some of my termites. I do have another farm now (handy-dandy Wally-World) so just send ‘em through the net and I’ll crack my case every morning and download ‘em.

Quaby you been in the rum?

Dry

I took the rule as being no discussing religion. It wasn’t a discussion, but a statement. i said it and did not expect a reply.

*Mo* I hear ya with the all the work.

MoPar sorry to hear about the tornado - i remember watching them on the news last year - pretty scary day. RRAmom lives in the real tornado alley so I think she’s more used to them then we are.

Dry & Lonewolf - doc told us one time that it was okay to speak about our religion, as long as it didn’t get into “mine is better than yours” You can check with him to see if I remember that correctly, but that’s the way I remember it.

Akenta - If a tornado hit Mopar’s house, he’s had closer experience than I have. The closest experience I had didn’t even make it up to tornado status, but sucked the screws out of our gate. Been through bad hail storms, seen areas before/after tornadoes, even had a cousin get picked up in one while driving across KS, but haven’t been through one myself. (Close enough to see one, though.) My cousin said his 2-3 minutes of fame about the tornado ride will be on the Discovery Channel next Sunday, August 9th at “7 EST.”

HI* *Akenta & RRAmom

The only discussion that is going on is now. I didn’t say anything wrong.

I mentioned where I was going not what I thought about it!

I need to go finish my door now. BBL

Gotcha Dry I saw the post.

RRAMom am or pm?

Hello all. Well, I have had a pretty good day. Lots of watering as usual. If this keeps going on I’ll drain the lake. Sorry about your house MoPar. At least it sounds like you are a handy guy. Give me a nail and I promise I won’t bend it the same way twice.

Classic funny descriptions of accidents (for jdoc and others):

.1. The other car collided with mine without giving warning of its intention.

.2. I thought my window was down but found it was up when I put my hand through it.

.3. The guy was all over the place. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him.

.4. I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment.

.5. The accident occured when I was attempting to bring my car out of a skid by steering it into the other vehicle.

.6. I was driving my car out of the driveway in the usual manner, when it was struck by the other car in the same place it had been struck several times before.

.7. As I approached the intersection, a stop sign suddenly appeared in a place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident.

.8. The telephone pole was approaching fast. I was attempting to swerve out of its path when it struck my front end.

.9. To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian.

.10. My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.

.11. An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my vehicle and vanished.

.12. The pedestrian had no idea which direction to go, so I ran him over.

.13. Coming home, I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don’t have.

MoPar, wow. That must have been a terrible ordeal. Yes, thank goodness no one was hurt. I am assuming you have no children. Living out of one room would be tough, but with children even more difficult! Glad tlhings are coming together for you finally!

Cleo I made the mistake of looking over my garden tonite. That’s why I disappeared for a bit, and will probably disappear again! Why don’t flowers and vegetables grow as fast as weeds???

bmonk, I’ve read those before, and they still make me laugh!

Bmomk ROFLMAO!!!!

johnnydoc, I’m glad that you’re all right! ♥

Hi Marg! How was your day? I hear it was quite hot in your territory today!

Hi, DRY! No, it was just another summer day. I guess I’m used to the heat. It is much colder in the morning now, however. The sun hasn’t risen over the top of the mountain yet when I start my bike ride at 5:45. How are things by you?

Going to read the rest of the comics now, bbl.

Dry - I know what you mean. I had sprayed my bank a week before with Roundup, went back to check and a blackberry branch had grown taller than myself in just that week.

Marg Today was a typical Sunday for me. LOL Good though, I still have my dad. It was supposed to rain all day but didn’t. And I still have to water some of my plants! Wish I had your heat! This has been a pretty cool summer compared to others.

Cleo I have my hose running in my flower bed. I noticed this summer we haven’t had many bugs about. Saw my first Japanese beetle tonight, and I have not been bothered with flea beetles on my plants AT ALL! Which is strange!!

Ok! I am done with the bathroom door. And yes I even pulled some weeds while I was out in the yard. I’ve been lucky to have kept them under control this year.

Dry –I am enjoying this summer. Basically 80’s all summer with 60’s at night. Great sleeping weather. Don’t have to turn the air on at night!

Hi Marg

Johnny –I am also glad you are here to tell us about your “incident”!

Bmonk –I’ve also read those before. It’s like a Letterman list. Funny!

((((Terry)))) Glad we’re good! We run the air even in winter, only on fan then for the white noise. Amazing how you get used to something. When the power turns off, I become wide awake!! We have had 80’s and 60’s at night, but I l love the 90 degree mark or better. I was born in the wrong state, though I do enjoy ths smell of autumn leaves. And seeing the snow fall, and then I hate it after that! LOL

Akenta since you aren’t here to help,

*WAKE UP DOC!!

How the heck did my horn end up in that dang trash can???

Sorry, fighting giants.

DocT - WAKE UP!!!

Hi, Terry!. Yes, I’ve heard how cold it’s been back in IL this summer. If we were still there, we’d be real surly, because it would be too cold to take the boat out and go swimming. I remeber how everyone tried to cram whatever they could into those three, short summer months.

Hi, Akenta!

What’s up, DOC? Not you!

Dry, you would love AZ. You might even love Phoenix (or not). Our daughter is up here for the weekend to cool off. LOL!

Leaving again, bye.

Hi Everyone!

I just read bmonk’s list of excuses for accidents. Like Dry, I’ve seen it, but it cracks me up everytime.

Marg I spent some time in Tucson and I LOVED IT!!!

DOC, OF COURSE WE’RE GOOD, AND DON’T YOU FORGET IT, MISTER!!!!

Shika, you’re mixing me up with marg, WHICH IS A COMPLIMANT!! THANK YOU!. I never saw that list, but it is FUNNY!! I am sure at least a couple of those remarks were made in RL! LOL

Glad you are okay johnny. At least it wasn’t serious. Any idiot could have done what you did! ;-D

You tell a good story. Except I think stories are not really true. True ones are funnier tough, as long as noone gets seriously hurt.

cleo You sure you weren’t bitten by a vampire bat? lol

I hope not! Eek. What a horror B.T. would turn into.

Marg, hi and I guess bye. I see strange is on tonight. Don’t think I can stay up for it tonight.

I need my eyes checked. I could have sworn it was you Dry. How’s you day been?

Hi marg. Did you see my post yesterday about your avatar? I like these bowls.

carmy I like your avatar too. Never heard of Loopy. She’s cute.

I know I’m getting here late to do this, but I wanted to say I’m with the Bear. I love “Headlines”, love Leno and hope he takes the Headlines feature to his new show, whenever that starts.

What’s this Lonewolf is talking about? I’ve mentioned ch-your-ch many times without it being a problem. It happens to be were I am on a Sunday, and not here. No big deal.

But if it is, let me know, and I’ll quit seminary. lol

Just kidding. :-D

@ chromo I’m with you. I don’t have a T.V. anymore, but I did enjoy headlines and Leno.

I liked Letterman too, but our family was a Johnny Carsen family. When he stopped, we stopped staying up late. LOL

Must be supper for everyone else, or else it me.

Nah! It’s supper.

BBL

chromosome, I saw a commercial for Leno’s new show, and it showed him reading those headlines. It will be on at 10 EST but I forget what night.. He will also be doing those on the street interviews. It will start sometime in the fall, early fall.

Oh, and welcome!

Shika all is fine. Terry was worried he broke a rule, because I replied and said I was Catholic also. No more mention. :-D

LOLQuaby I just got it. You found your termites HERE! Take them all. They caused enough trouble last night.

Doc don’t spend too much money on groceries!! LOL

OK Dry. I couldn’t see your posts, and it seemed he was talking to himself, and I wondered if he had lost it.

Talk about mass confusion!

Pun intended.

Pardon my ignorance, but does anyone know where a chop comes from, as in Lamb chop, veal chop. I’m too lazy to google the word, much less get out my dictionary. LOL

I just had the most delicious veal chop, but I’ve never had it before, only pork or lamb.

Got me thinking, which is always a problem with me.

I’m glad to hear that just cutting out snacks will help me to lose weight.

BTW, Doc How does one lose 5 PONDS? Drain them? LOL

It MUST be me. Everytime I come on, everyone leaves.

BBL

He/She who holds the clicker has

#The Power

Hi Tribe, I will be out for most of the week - will just stop in occasionally to peek and be out before you know it! Miss y’all!

shika veal chops come from the loin or rib

http://recipes.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Category:Veal_Chop_Recipes

lamb chops from a few other places

dawn take care and enjoy your week

Akenta you are pulling aShika!

Dawn whatever you’re doing have fun!

Yes, we do seem to have a variety of vampire like beings on the lake. If I was bit by one does that make me one? If so, I am one dark vampire.

I haven’t said good night - yet. Will do that in a few minutes.

Finally got rid of that cursed Ie8, My dad knew how to restore IE7 so i’m happy again.

Sorry I was out for awhile, I was at the park with my cousins.

My computer wants me to install IE8 , but after last time I will not do it.

ladyw there’s a way to check things so it doesn’t ask you again. I can’t remember what it is, but that’s what I did on one of my machines.

And now I better say good night. Work tomorrow and the first wave of schools starting. Need to make sure I get up early if I want to say good morning to the tribe and start my comic rounds.

Take care and have a good evening, everyone.

Akenta I got tricked into that IE8 thing too, although, I must say< i haven’t had any major problems, YET.

And can anyone tell me what this BING is? It’s some kind of a search engine. That I did not get until I installed IE8.

I haven’t had any problems with IE8, but I usually use Firefox.

Dry, is your son enjoying his new laptop?

I’m glad you all like “Loopy.” I thought it was a good choice as my disposition has been a bit loopy lately.

Hello all again. Thanks for the kind words, except for a big scrape on my arm and a bruises over the left side of my body, including a massive one in my shoulder, I’ll live to be stupid again. I am glad I’m right handed. I don’t really use IE any version, I like firefox. That is my opinion.

johnny thought I would wiat unitl you got on again to say glad you are okay!!

So if I get Firefox, do uninstall IE8? I asked that ? last night or the night before and no one answered me that I could see.

Dry, don’t uninstall IE8. I have found that I must use IE8 on certain sites as Firefox is a bit too advanced for them.

Thanks Dry Yeah, I think you can have both.

Hey DocT –‘Bout time you’re up!

Hi Shika—You sweet thang!!!!!

Dry –We’ve always been good. Nothing changed. I just had a point to make. Nothing to do with you, just my stubborness.

As far as the hot weather, I spent to many days in the field(in the military) in Texas and in Kuwait. I’ve had enough of the hot weather until I decide to retire in Texas.

Hi Terry! Sorry to bail just as you get in, but I have got to get to bed, because I have work tomorrow. Good night all! P&L!

Good Night johnny

Sorry I missed you!

(((((Shika)))))

(((((Dry)))))

Does Pigborn not have any new strips on the weekend?

Do they just keep posting to an old strip? I was wondering how they get so many posts. It doesn’t seem that busy.

Terry how many years were you in the military? What branch? If I may ask.

(in process of peeling the monitor screen back on my laptop)

Anybloody in there? (sees deep, deep, deep dark black hole)

Hellooooooooooo

Terry Pibgorn does not update over the weekend. Mr. McEldowney (who also does 9 Chickweed Lane) does Pibgorn Mon-fri and 9CL all 7 days.

DRY

Army-14yrs split over two different times. First time I went in at 17, second time at 35. Passed all the tests better at 35 than at 17. Mind you I did well at 17.

Terry, what branch? My hub was in the 82nd Airborne.

DRY

You can ask me all you want about the military. I’m very proud of it and never fail to answer questions.

Pibgorn only does strips fives days a week, When the next comic update happens depending on your time zone you will see a new one.

For me it will be a quarter after ten tonight.

DRY

My units were 1st Cavalry Division, 8th Engineer Battalion, and several units I was attached to for Ranger and Special Forces Training. There were others but those were the main ones.

The special unit was the 1st Cavalry Horse Detachment. It was stricktly a recruitment tool for the Army, but we dressed in Civil War uniforms with the weapons and all and rode horses for Parades and such. I got to ride in the 1996 Rose Bowl Parade and the trail for Custer’s Last Stand! Pretty cool.

Dry & ladyw

Thanks for the info. I was just checking PB out and noticed it was old.

Dry

Did I answer your questions?

The branch is Army, Navy, ect. The units are 82nd Airborne, 1st Cav, etc.

Hi Dry, Lady andLonewolf.

Terryyou were you with the Rangers if I am understanding you correctly, so you must have trained at Bragg?

Thanks Akenta for the info on chops. Sorry I missed you again. My toon-tour took longer than normal because I was having fun posting comments on them. Being this late, noone will see them, but it’s fun anyways.

I still don’t see how chops can come from anywhere on the animal. Or is “chop” simple a description rather than a cut, like sirloin.

(((Shika)))

I just had the most amazing Italian dinner. Very few ingredients and very tasty. I love that my wife and I like the same foods. I have always been experimental and so is she. Yum.

There are too many comments to reply too.

sorry I missed you again johnny. Bad timing on my part. :-(

Shika –Now I am in seventh heaven. I don’t even know how to act with such beauty around me!

((((((((Lonewolf)))))))))

cleo don;t make me hungry again! LOL

Shika, I saw your comment to the “hippy” dude. He is a quite raunchy, isn’t he?

carmy where was this? I didn’t make all my rounds yet.

Dry

Ranger training was at Ft. Benning, Georgia. Special Forces training was at Ft Bragg, North Carolina.

Dry, that guy is posting all over. The worst one that I saw was on B.C. That’s the one Shika commented on too.

I meant to mention this.

Did anyone see the news item on the couple driving from (I think) Denmark to Capri? This is true. They spelled it wrong in the GPS and wound up in the industrial town of CARPI! LOL That’s 600km North of Capri, and Capri is an island.

GET THIS: They didn’t notice anything amiss, and actually asked a local how to get to the famous grotto on Capri from where they were.

When they were told where they were, they just looked surprised, turned around and drove south again. ROFLOL

carmi I didn’t flag him, just posted a mild warning. That was a bit much.

I tagged “The Barn” today:

“Maniac Sunday at the Barn. I think you should get the credit for it though. The strip was good today, as always.

Wasn’t “Dog eat Doug” priceless today?

carmi That Capri/Carpi story reminded me of my typo on your name: Carmi/Camri (Camry)

i saw the article on Capri. I was just glad for once that it wasn’t an American.

Thanks Lonewolf, for including me with the other beauties present. Just act yourself. Your doing fine. One can never have enough hugs.

Unless you’re hymenoxis.lol

Don’t get mad hymenoxis, you know I luv ya!

LOL Re: doc and Hunny going shopping. It must be love.

Since when does a man get excited about going grocery shopping?

They’ve taken their relationship to new heights. I think it’s great.

((((Doc))))

Good thing I don’t let my 13yr old on this comic site.

B.C. has been one of his favorite comics for a couple of years now. He would definitely have seen that and even he would have known what it implied. I can understand the editorials being off limits, but B.C. Very sad.

cleo You were glad it wasn’t YOU! LOL

I’m just kidding, I know you’d never get lost.

Now myself………that’s another story. LOL

Shika clicked you to go to BC to see what the hub bub was about, think you have enough tags there girl?? LOL!!!

I think I’m going to start flagging that dude. I’ve noticed that everyone seems to be ignoring him, but sometimes his comments are really offensive.

DRY

In the 60’s and the early 70’s it was the 101st Airborne Rangers. In the mid 70’s, they became their own unit, the 1st Ranger Battalion, then added the 2nd Ranger Battalion. Starting in the 80’s more were added.

Dry I don’t know what has gotten into me tonight. I went back, and he said something else- and I replies again. I’d better saty away. He may be a troll. I just hate it when someone slips something into a perfectly harmless strip.

At least at SOTU, you know what to expect.

Carmy

I agree–Very offensive. And comments along those lines have to be pretty heavy to offend me.

Shika - You are right, I do not get lost. I have a great sense of direction and I am a great map reader. My wife on the other hand…

I’m waiting to be chewed out here. i broke my own rule, let alone anyone else’s.

cleo I’m not as bad as I make myself out to be. I have a self-deprecatory sense of humour.

But if I’m not paying attention, or if I’m a passenger, forget it. In fact, as a passenger, I may not even notice if the drivier is still in town. lol-That’s my weird exaggeratory sense of humour again.

I love making up words too!

Shika

I’m in the same boat. I just backed you up to the old dumpster at B.C.

Couldn’t help myself.

Thanks for the support Terry.

(What did I say about staying away?)

The poster that you all are talking about is a bummer to me, because I am a big Frank Zappa fan.

Shika

Like I’ve said before I have a big mouth sometimes, but people always know where I am coming from.

It’s good thing you’ve been trained in the military. I’ll let you handle him Lonewolf. Do I have to hide in the dumpster while you do it? LOL

Cleo

I hear you. Me too! and that’s about what I thought when I saw it. Bummer!

Terry forgive me for being fuzzy on some of the details, but that was a long time ago. And by the way, I still have friends in Fayetteville, but I keep forgetting to ask if Pope is still open. And you never did answer my question, WERE YOU AT BRAGG?

Shika

I was calling him a dumpster. LOL

Shika and Terry, just flag anything you find offensive. Sometimes if you comment to the trolls, they follow you and we don’t want that scumbag over here.

Dry - Sorry, I just now read your question. (Went to a piano concert tonight.) My cousin’s bit about his tornado encounter will be on the Discovery Channel’s Raging Planet on Sunday, August 9, at 7PM EST. (At least that’s what it says - I thought we were still on Daylight Savings Time, so “check your local listings” to be sure.)

Lonewolf - Remind me sometime to tell you about my Mother’s of Invention concert back in the late 60’s early 70’s.

Uh cleo Is Frank Zappa like the Hipster? Are we talking about that poster? It’s too bad then if he’s doing his schtick on a comic site that children may read, that’s all.

Nothing wrong with being a Zappa fan.

Dry

Yes I was stationed at Ft Bragg for Spec Forces training.

Lonewolf Oh! In that case, I’m glad you apologised.

I’m no Jane, thank goodness.

Carmy

I try, but in this case, with my son getting older and wanting to visit this comic site more and more, I’d like to think maybe he’d give a d@ng!

I know wishful thinking in most cases, but you don’t know until you try.

Carmy I guess if that happens, we’ll flag him here. i hope it doesn’t happen though.

So where did this Loopy cartoon run? I’ve never seen it.

cleo

I know that’s got to be a good story!

Shika

What apology? You lost me.

Mentioning religion is OK…..Discussing it or arguing about it is NOT! We ALL say we will remember somebody in our prayers and it has ALWAYS been OK! Get it? Got it? Good! (POOF….GONE)

Terry If you didn’t apologise for pushing me into the dumpster, you should have. LOL

I’m ready for sleep now, so I’ll say Good Night.

I’ll leave it up to you to wonder if I mean it this time. LOL

Peace and Love my friends!

(You are in my prayers JFri! Okay?)

Shika, I believe the toon was called “Life with Loopy.” It aired on Nickelodeon in the mid to late 90’s. Loopy was actually a toon on another toon called “Kablam.” One cute episode was when her father warned her that if she did not wash behind her ears, she would start growing potatoes there. So, she did not wash behind her ears and she had a whole vegetable garden growing behind her ears. It was very funny is a sick kinda way.

Goodnight Shika!

JFri one of these days I am going to catch you in my special trap before you go POOF!!!

Goodnight all!!

Darling

I would never push you into a dumpster!!

Goodnight Dry!

Hey JFri

Have you become poster shy or something

Good Night Dry
