    Now I know why Locher shaped MoFo’s mouth like it is…. Perfect shape to say, “Uh-Oh!” And those pink goggles!

    There’s already a character in “Cul de Sac” called the Uh-Oh Baby. http://gocomics.com/culdesac/2008/10/04/ . Do we really need an Uh-Oh Robot too?

    why do you need backup? You’ve got that monster guy in the truck

    Everyone knows those are Original Britney Spears recording tapes when she was in the Mickey Mouse club. They are going to use the tapes to Blackmail her to get her sh*t together!

    That is one hideous hand in panel 1.

    Why didn’t Tracy have back-up with him already if he trusted his trusted Robot??

    Hey, where did Shirl(ey)’s sister come from? I thought they left her in the abandoned farmhouse in the Southern middle of the city?

    “Uh-OH!” indeed. MF didn’t realize that a robot with similar frequencies was hangin’ outside the building trying to figure out how to get up the stairs???

    Tape back-ups? Must be true - the bigger the company, the older the computer. By the way, Tracy, you DO have backup. You brought it in the truck.

    “Uh-oh!” indeed. MF has been climbing stairs on a four-wheel bogey, and Mecha-dickzilla has a six-wheel bogey! “Two more wheels! He outranks me!”

    About the tapes: Probably old stuff, no longer in use. I thought everybody knew that we use DVDs, or for really high storage capacity get some of those USB keyfob chips. You can shove several of those things into your jacket pocket.

    I’ve got a question. Maybe it’s been answered before, but–

    Is there even a remote chance that Dick Locher reads this stuff? I know some of the cartoonists do read these comments and even participate in it, but maybe not this one? Just curious.

    Grokenstein says: … even if I can’t help but love a robot that says, “Uh-OH!”

    I’m with ya there 100%. MF grows on you, and that “uh-OH!”, just put me firmly into his camp. He’s a lovable scamp.

    Those are not film canisters, tape reels, or even the old 20-pound hard disks. They are 1964 Corvette hubcaps. Worth a fortune today.

    Why is Braces carrying (rather awkwardly) more than Shirl(ey)’s sister? Get as much as you can and get the heck out!!
