The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for September 05, 2009

Ok then…….

I presume they’re trying to do a rain dance.

Are they circling the wagon? And is that wagon made of toilet seats?

You know, they do look like toilet seats, but unless those are pygmy pioneers, they must have bought them at a “big and tall” store.

sorry scott nobody does chinese fire drills anymore so the kids just don’t get it.

I’ve never done it, but I know about them and have even seen them done on a commercial recently. The idea is all the occupants of a car, stopped at a stop sign or stop light, get out run around the car.

We were sooo cool when we did chinese fire drills

not one of your funniest. too bad. I’m disapointed

Never heard of a Chinese Fire drill. And why would you do one? I need to do some research.

Ah! It makes sense now!

And I’ve seen this on TV. Never actually seen it done in real life though.

Isn’t research wonderful?

Chinese Fire Drills were only great when the car was full - 6 plus.

No, Scott did good - the pioneers are stopped by a herd of cows, so they all jump off and run around the wagon. Makes sense in the context. Well, I thought it was funny…..

Librarian: I deleted the blog - realized I wasn’t really interested. A big thanks for your time. I appreciated it.

My friends and I did this at a stop light one time and it was raining and I fell down behind the car and almost got run over!!! Ahhh, good times, good times:) This cartoon brought back some great memories!!!
