This Nancy storyline might have some good edit opportunities, assuming Gilchrist doesn't just do his 'soup of characters' thing. But it'll probably simply suck.

Wait, is it possible the Dinette set has actually been making oblique references to real events this whole time?



quote:

As the tornadoes approached the Oklahoma City metro, thousands of residents decided to leave the area for safety, possibly due to the still fresh memories of the devastation caused by the May 20 Moore tornado. Already congested with rush hour traffic, Interstates 35, 40, 44 and 240, became "parking lots" as the storms neared. Residents reported the highways to be a scene of chaos, "people were going southbound in the northbound lanes. Everybody was running for their lives.". It has been suggested that the evacuation was partially caused by a controversial call to action on-air by KFOR-TV chief meteorologist Mike Morgan, who suggested on-air that residents without underground storm shelters or safe rooms get into their cars and evacuate south of the track.

Maybe one of them went to one of those hardass Catholic schools that says lefthandedness is of the devil and forces you to learn how to use your right hand? That's what happened to my dad.

This is clearly a double-framejob, he moved all his art supplies to the left to throw Danger off, but made a blunder: If he's so left-handed, why is he opening the drawer with his right?

E: Deliberate, well-planned, single shot fired kills target. Definitely the work of someone who doesn't own a gun.

So, to sum up, Mopey Pete's genius idea (the one that he wanted out of anyway) got him fired. Because it was too good for his level of writing...or conscience, whatever. And now all the comic book geeks that wanted his head on a stick are adoring the damage he's wrought...now that he's out of the way. :cawg:
