PHANTOM: What’s going to happen next?MARK TRAIL: Mark is in trouble here…and no doubt we’ll be kept in suspense over Sunday. REX MORGAN: Poor Foster Woods…his funeral didn’t turn out very well.JUDGE PARKER: Sam is finally going to mail the contract and he and Avery have finally noticed those big black clouds ahead.APT 3-G: Where’s Tommie, the midwife?FUNKY W: When are we going to Tanzania?
FOXTROT: This has been a funny short story – with Paige babysitting and watching a tv show (forbidden at home) and her charge, little Katie, has picked up a new word from the show: *@#%. Katie has been temporarily muffled with a mouthful of peanut butter: mmpf. I hope this story continues for at least one more day!
Rex Morgan: What is the mortician worried about? Doesn’t he have a back room to put Foster in?
Mark Trail: How do they plan to finish Mark off?
Mary Worth: These rules apply to DawnRules Kids Won’t Learn in School Rule #1. Life is not fair. Get used to it. The average teenager uses the phrase “it’s not fair” 8.6 times a day. You got it from your parents, who said it so often you decided they must be the most idealistic generation ever. When they started hearing it from their own kids, they realized Rule #1.
Rule #2. The real world won’t care as much about your self-esteem as your school does. It’ll expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. This may come as a shock. Usually, when inflated self-esteem meets reality, kids complain that it’s not fair. (See Rule No. 1)
Rule #3. Sorry, you won’t make $50,000 a year right out of high school. And you won’t be a vice president or have a car phone either. You may even have to wear a uniform that doesn’t have a Gap label.
Rule #4. If you think your teacher is tough, wait ‘til you get a boss. He doesn’t have tenure, so he tends to be a bit edgier. When you screw up, he is not going ask you how you feel about it.
Rule #5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping. They called it opportunity. They weren’t embarrassed making minimum wage either. They would have been embarrassed to sit around talking about Fifty Cent all weekend.
MARY WORTH: I’m sure Mary is a good cook but maybe Wilbur should have had one or none of her muffins given his size especially since they’ll be doing some walking while touring Italy. APT 3-G: did she fire Tommie?
A3G – Nina is at her apartment. Her dad is looking in her bedroom at his house. He won’t find her. Then he and Scott can panic.JP – This will be an eventful trip – I don’t know if good or bad.Mandrake – I hope the next story is more interesting, though it was good to learn more about Mandrake and Luciphor’s relationship.
