Frazz by Jef Mallett for June 08, 2008

Transcript:

Caulfield: Summer vacation! Freedom! Mrs. Olsen: But first, a short discussion. Caulfield: Uh-oh. What did I do? Mrs. Olsen: It's what you didn't do: about 150 pages of homework. Caulfield: And you're going to make me do it? You're going to doom an active, dynamic 8-year-old to a sedentary lifestyle for the best part of the year? Mrs. Olsen: I'm going to let it slide. Caulfield: Well, that's just...you're what? Mrs. Olsen: Unless I hear of you spending a single, precious, finite minute if front of a video screen. Then you owe me the whole load. Frazz: She did the same thing to me 22 years ago. To this day, I don't know if she's my nemesis or my hero. Caulfield: And now I'm unbelievably conflicted about painting underpants on her garden gnomes. Frazz: 2 1/2 words: water-based paint.
