Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for July 15, 2011
Transcript:
Okay, kid, I'm an exhausted swimmer, and you're without a flotation device. What do you do? Um... A cross-chest carry? Well, then, go ahead! What are you waiting for? I... I'm trying, but... I can't get a good hold! Try harder, junior! You can't dillydally when it comes to water safety! Just grab something! One second later... Not the hair, boy. Oops.

well, the hair needs saving, too
jpozenel over 13 years ago
I do remember seeing an illustration of this life saving technique when I was a boy scout. Of course there aren’t to many boy scouts with toupees!

Too much suntan lotion and… a toupee? Uh-oh, Coach will never live that down and hopefully Nate isn’t punished the rest of his life…

Coach John looks meaner without the toupee.
folklegendredux over 13 years ago
Hahaha I think I had that same coach in high school. He was always getting hit “accidentally” by volleyballs and basketballs that would knock his toupee off. We had to run a lot of laps in that class.

And what’s with the pickle nose. Looks like WC Fields. “If I had a nose like that full of nickles we’d be rich!”
