Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for July 23, 2009
Transcript:
Alice: Dill! How'd you get so wet? Dill: My brothers have invented the ultimate water pistol! All it took was a garden hose, some buckets, a sprinkler, a fire hydrant, a water main, a reservoir, an aquifer of sufficient size- Oh, and a couple of those bendy plastic soda straws. Those are vital. Alice: I'm so glad my brother has no mechanical ability whatsoever.
By “bendy straws” does he mean the kind with the single pleated “hinge”, or the ones which can loop around and around and around like a French Horn? (I need to know so I can steal the design and patent it.)
