Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 16, 2012
Transcript:
Alice: I hadn't realized guinea pigs hate hermit crabs. Mr. Danders: Oh, yes- Mr. Danders: In the wild, guinea pigs and hermit crabs are deadly enemies. They engage in vicious battle lasting for days. Beni: I saw one of those on a TV nature show. It was real pathetic. Mr. Danders: Oh! If these bars did not constrain me you'd see something epic!

Cul de Sac creator Richard Thompson went under the knife last Friday to have a chip implanted in his brain to alleviate some of the symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease. Friend and fellow cartoonist Nick Galifianakis was there and fed fellow friend Mike Rhode updates on the progress and condition.

Pet hermit crabs in the genus Coenobita are land-dwelling creatures.The Caribbean hermit crab and the Ecuadorian hermit crab are commonly sold as pets in the US.

Personally, I think Mr. Danders tends to exaggerate—although the hermit crab does appear to concur with the premise Danders expresses bombastically….

Can’t resist saying: in South America, Guinea Pigs don’t exist in the wild. They are domestic animals.

Actually, nobody can explain what causes gravity, so the entire “law” of gravity is based on observations. Until we can explain the observations we just have a “best guess” as to its behavior.

Give it up, folks. If Lady and the Tramp didn’t catch on to it in grade school, it’s not going to happen now.
There’s none so blind as those who will not see.

Since all of you are so smart, how come none of you picked up on guinea pigs, first off ,have no tails… and the eyeballs popping out is nothing but a myth… and you say I’m the ignorant one…
