oh, one can hardly wait until the tree grows up and clunks grown-up Alice with an apple on the noggin as revenge for the taunting
Best explanation I have seen for tieing up young trees.
Sounds like something Calvin’s dad would say.
Taunting the inanimate is cruel… taunting the animate can be dangerous.
It IS animate as far as SHE knows.
Dad should have told her that she was next.
So that’s why trees get tied up. I’ve even seen trees in cages on city streets. They must be very naughty trees indeed.
I notice Alice is not leaving the sidewalk.Tell her ,Nara :~)
Alice may be cruel but now fool. She stays a healthy distance away while taunting.
Score one for Dad. I love this comic strip!
How is Alice like a young tree?
