Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for January 31, 2017

For once, I’m identifying with Bucky, taking a snarky comment and going way too far with it!

Wait until Rob explains it, and Bucky finds out it’s not even an island.

It is Rogues Island, for those of us who are here…

I hear the fishing is great at Sewage Treatment Cove.

The official name is “State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations”, and, just to add to the confusion, the island itself is now called Aquidneck Island, with Newport and some other towns on it. Like NJ, it’s nicer than it looks from the highway. We go to the beaches there (from CT) to get surf, out of the lee of Long Island.

Sewage Treatment Cove: that’s in Jersey, right?

I wonder if it is legal to shoot sarcastic Siamese cats in RI.

Actually, I grew up on a cove that could easily be called “Sewage Treatment Cove”, because of the Sewage Plant outflow by it and the Island of the same name as the cove.

Off-Ramp Mountain? Is that for people who missed Lookout Mountain?

Always thought it had something to do with Cecil Rhodes. In that case Sewage Treatment Island would be an improvement. Associating the current name to a treatment plant is an insult to sewage.Cecil was one of Hitler’s idols if that gives you a clue as to the type of monster he was.
