Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for January 28, 2024

Don’t worry, you can still insist that the other kids call you “Fireball”. Insist with extreme prejudice as needed.

So hands off before your hands fall off!

Zip ties! Also known as cable ties (or should I write KA-ble ties?)

I HAZYtate to call this a success,…well, “Let’s call it a (zip) tie”

Fireball fits her much better.

Eh Blazey be more appropriate.

And this story is just zipping along!!!

I like the gag-a-day format on Sundays.

ka-comfortably numb

A bit like my practicing escapes in college (I was heavily into magic at the time…I got better). Tied my wrists and ankles with neckties to try a new escape approach…that…didn’t work. Had to hop down a flight of stairs and across the dorm to get untied.

Anyone else thinking of a kid’s tongue frozen to a flagpole?

I worked with a guy named Richard Head. His parents didn’t think that one through.

KA-ZIP TIE!

I think Fireball is a better name for her than Hazy. Fits her personality.

I still prefer Fireball Haywire.

Take a leaf from Petey Potterpoop, Hazy, and gnaw your arm off.
