@nighthawks – Hahaha. I met Gennifer (with a G) several years ago in a courtroom in central Arkansas. The years had not been kind to her. She was trying to squeeze $$$ out of a deadbeat ex-husband. She was going around the courtroom before the judge came in hugging all the lawyers. I kept circling the counsel table keeping it between us. Good times.
Queen Cleo, you should ask for air conditioning while you are at it. The hot season in Egypt is brutal. Of course AC has not been invented yet either, but you will be setting standards for your reincarnation.
This is the strip I’ve been expecting… the one on which Saturday’s puzzle was based….
which Nighthawks said would be along soon.
The autocratic Cleopatra is a natural role for her namesake, (and possible descendant?) Cleo Clifford…
The palaces and pyramids, the sedan chair and royal accoutrements may have disappeared or been passed down to far-flung and distant cousins….
but the attitude that demands antitank missiles, bags of chips, and extra kibble was obviously inherited from somewhere.
Anyway… I was trying to “do” all my comics a little earlier tonight… so of course, my internet went out.
I fooled with the modem, the connections, rebooting, etc…. and finally, after almost two hours, it came back, and I thought I had something to do with it.
Ha! A few comics later it was off again. Then back. Off. Back.
Finally could get to my ISP website where I read that tonight “we will performing intrusive maintenance” in my area….
downtime “should be” less than 60 minutes…. uh huh…. “within a five hour window.”
Thanks for the advance warning, ISP!
Anyway…. from personal experience, I’d like to warn Lyle about brains….
once they romp… once they get used to frolicking….
It’s time to view the continuing ssaaaaaaggaa of the sweetest, cuddliest basset on the planet! We join her majesty as she strolls through her domain, gently voicing her wishes to her assistants. It is at this point in history that iced tea was invented!

Lyle just might regret the permanent loss of his brain, the fool.

Don’t be silly. Haven’t you heard of ice-capped mountains or ice storms? They do have them, you know.

Haha, it looks like Cleo learnt puns from her (fore)bearers!!!

Cleo, if you had ICE in Egypt, you would not have those African bearers. And no pyramid builders. Like the White House, built by slaves.
