    Looks like he’s had a landing gear issue.

    Millie is obviously accustomed to this. These Ballard Street couples really adapt to each other. Very nice.

    Yes, I too love the way Ballard St couples adapt to each other….

    they accept a spouse who goes to work in an animal mask or performs strange rituals in the yard….

     

    We’ve seen broken porches, explosions in the living room,,,,

    smashed lamps and flying machines that crash.

     

    For better or for worse.

    Through sunshine and through hospital visits.

    Don’t forget the power of cartoon physics.

     

    An object in a cartoon will always travel in the direction that is funniest.

    Its strength and weight will be proportional to the humor it creates.

     

    And Doh…. good to see you back yesterday!

    Marcus, will push the button, he will go out of control, he will crqsh and burn. It won’t be the first time. Nor the last.By the way, the ear muffs that Myrtle is wearing are not for the jet noise, but for Marcus’ whining after the event. She doesn’t want to hear it anymore.

    Unfortunately, he’s intending to roar ahead 20 to 30 feet, but instead ends up going for a bit of a scrape…

    It looks to me as if Marcus likely lists heavily to starboard. What say you, Linguist?

    Susan, Your observation:

    “An object in a cartoon will always travel in the direction that is funniest.”

    Very wise!
