Shugojin: Sep 6, 2007; THE TAIL THAT BURNS TWICE AS BRIGHT...

i think the thing that really gets me about the pole vaulting story in dustin is that reasonably the instructor would make ed do a ton of cardio and basic warmup stuff long before he attempted to actually do any vaulting so if he actually stuck with it he'd get in decent shape

Like not only is it this mean spirited and generally vile it's also stupid

A Very Merry Hellworld Tea Party

I want someone to successfully overpower, murder, and devour Kevin without cheating, cackling evilly, or twirling a moustache just so we can have the rest of the cast quip through big frozen grins about hahahahaha wow PUNCHLINE EH? about how normal and reasonable this all is as their friend/family member's carcass is messily dismembered and consumed in front of them.

Today makes one year since Lupin passed away. It still feels like it happened only a few weeks ago, and will likely stay fresh in the heart for a long while. I miss him every day, I still look for him sometimes. Occasionally I see a flash of white out of the corner of my eye, and always hope it is him.

Forever will hope it is him. 🤍

He was one heck of a cat.

Fearless, friendly, warm, affectionate, hilarious, ridiculous. I�m proud to have known him, and I�m so grateful I was able to share his personality, antics, and charm with all of you. Thank you for loving him with us. Nine years was not nearly long enough. ❤️❤️❤️

That's the type of thing I used to do until I just chickened out and started using one or two all-purpose fonts for everything, but I appreciate your attention to detail.

Anyway, I knew I was forgetting something... Olive & Popeye (Shadia's shift)

Our Boarding House (May 3-5, 1923)

Toonerville Folks (July 8-10, 1920, with translations for the cursive impaired, because this is going to be a regular thing for a bit.)

WHILE HIS WIFE WAS AWAY ON A SHORT TRIP, Jones found that washing a baby in a bath tub was a though job so he adopted a new method.

THE FOLKS NEVER REALIZED WHAT A CRACK PITCHER THEY HAD IN THE FAMILY--until the day they were all ready to go away for the summer and their departure had to be postponed.

THE EXPERT POLO PLAYER TAKES UP GOLF--and discovers that the general results from the tee and through the fairway are much better when he drives the ball along in this manner.

Dok's "Time Trials For The Wacky Races" Duck (July 11, 1914)

Little Lefty (November 4-6, 1937, and fooey, another skipped Sunday.)

I appreciate the transcriptions, although I have to say I'm surprised at how legible Fox's cursive is. I suppose when you're getting printed in the paper you need to make sure your writing isn't chickenscratch.

So, if someone in your immediate family likes to read romances, you know. The books are lying around, or they're in bookshelves in the house, or you actually see the person reading them. Luann is incredibly unobservant and self absorbed is what I'm saying.

Tangentially reminded of a five-year-old old GameFaqs Breath of the Wild Thread, where the original poster is incensed about Japanese magazines apparently breaking day-and-date review embargos, is reminded about time zones and insists that "There aren't time zones that are 12 hours apart from each other."

If they live in the Eastern time zone, the grandparents might be in Alaska. If they're in Central, the grandparents could live in Hawaii.
