Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 23, 2012

You can’t? But what about rope?

Then again, they’ve been in preschool for years now. I wouldn’t surprised if they never got married.

Dill has a certain Idea of “banjo man-ness” that may or may not correspond to Reality (whatever that is)…. Such a Platonic pre-schooler!

Well that news was met with a lot of enthusiasm.

He’s just stringing her along Alice.

That’s my new motto: You can’t tie down a banjo man. Now I just need to learn how to play banjo.

Timmy Fretwork’s back! One of my favorite characters.

Banjo men and rappers are certainly not the marrying type.

As long as Timmy Fretwork keeps Ms. Bliss “entertained” then everything is ok!

You can’t tie him down but you can string him up.

Not married, but they had an amazing summer. He plucked. She fingered.

Will Timmy play “Freebird” during his encore?

I visualize restraints and a whip.

So weird how Alice reads my mind..

She just needs help from the Australians. Anyone who can tie a kangaroo down would have no problem with a banjo man.Tie me kangaroo down, sportTie me kangaroo down.

I’m a banjo man and I’m tied down-just had our 30th anniversary.

he’s a Ramblin’ Guy with Happy Feet.

Marcus was a bit odd. Yesterday, he must have good enough glasses to see the word bubbles, but today, he’s either rolling his eyes, or staring at a monkey-shaped stain on the ceiling.

If you meet the Banjo Man in the road, kill him.

But don’t try to tie him down, becauseIT CAN’T BE DONE!

Just got to reading this, and it’s a classic – love it!
