Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 06, 2012

Alice Otterloop is on that bus!

Are we there yet?*******I’m thirsty.*******Are we there yet?*******Teacher, he touched me.*******Are we there yet?*******We gotta stop. I gotta pee!*******Are we there yet?

Re blog: What a bunch of Bennys!

Re: UNINVITED GUEST This is why she has a mongoose instead one of those silly little purse dogs.

And, being a proper guest she always inquires if the snake is a family pet before opening her purse.

The Bang! Lamp reminds me of the scene on a “Get Smart!” episode where Don Addams told Hymie the literal-minded robot “Kill the light!”

I guess you’re all assuming that the pictorial sequence is to be read left to right; what if it is to be read right to left? It still sounds like an ill-fated bus.

Yellow Journalism.

As always … the strip and blog rock!!!

Just saw the blog … all I can say is, Aww, gawwrsh …

A lot of folks who wind up on my blog get there because they’re looking for info on someone who sings deeply.

Please crash! I don’t want to go to school.

o/~ Are we there yet,I’m tired,I’m hungry,How far?My nose is snotty!Need to move my body!Gotta use the potty!Better stop the car! o/~

I trIed to find some info on Bennys, but thankfully my short search was fruitless. I look at them and think…Sweden!

What’s between Charlie Brown and Lucy is an idiot string. Mittens used to be attached together by a long piece of yarn went through the sleeves of a coat to prevent them from being lost. I hated the feel of that yarn behind my back.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Steed…….…………………………Mrs. Peel-——☻

The Blog:

“Transport…” I had a model of the Studebaker with the pointy grill when I was a kid. I thought that rocket grill was the coolest thing ever.

“Bang Lamp”: Teresa proves her own statement about typos: “…simply shot it again.” It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed correcting a typo. Wish she’d make more.

Bob Dylan: I always think of the refrain, “Ah, but I was so much older then/I’m younger than that now.”

This one song (My Back Pages) should earn Dylan a permanent Frog Applause Logic Award Medal. Check out the rest of the lyrics if you haven’t heard them:

Why is TAMAR CHKHIKVADZE humping somebody’s leg?She’s got a match. Her face for … never mind.I sat at driver’s seat mockups somewhat resembling that. But it wasn’t a driving simulation.

My, oh my. Looks like Vlad had a busy weekend.

Pages in the Yellow Omnibus !!!!

I know the suspense is killing you, but don’t worry, I’ll let you know when we’ve crashed.

RE the Blog: Looks like Hellin Mertin?!? … ☻

Regarding the Kung Fu Fighting pic…

http://obituarytypo.blogspot.com/2012/02/kung-fu-fighting.html

It looked very Japanese, so I asked Japanese sci-fi maven August Ragone to identify it. He tells me the image comes from the 1959 TV series, “Planet Prince.”

Western audiences may be familiar with the Toei feature film based on it, which was called “Prince of Space,” and was famously lampooned by MST3K.

re Blog and the coconut question. it may refer to the children’s book “Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom”. Therefore one would find the “F” coconut in between “E” and “G”. Still wouldn’t pick it, if I were you.

My hair is a wreck, close enough?

HA

THATS FUNNY!!!
