Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for December 30, 2012
Transcript:
Lucy: Building a snowman? Danae: Well, sort of... but I take it to another level by telling my version of a classic winter fable through images made out of snow... I call it Literary Snow Sculpture. Lucy: Cool! So what's this one about? Danae: Frosty's Amazon Adventure. Lucy: Of course...

Calvin would be proud.
Varnes almost 12 years ago
Funny, here in Michigan we justify packing a little whiskey in the winter by saying, “Just in case of a snow snake bite..”…Actually, a snow snake was a Woodland Indian winter game. …Basically a carved sliding stick slid for distance in the snow……

She should team up with Calvin, who could build the terrified snowmen running away in horror!
Varnes almost 12 years ago
yldchyld, and an angel got it’s wings….

Richard, I live in Michigan. It’s so much more fun to be a Packers fan than a Lion’s fan….My mental health is so much better now….Did you see the outrage at the Minnesota, Packers game? In Lambeau Field, a Minnesota guy got a touchdown, found some Vikings fans and did a Lambeau Leap! Is that legal? Why wasn’t he arrested?..

Check Snopes. That was a Burmese Python, and photoshopped.

What does this have to do with snow snakes?

The heir apparent to Calvin.
CaptainKiddeo almost 12 years ago
Yeah, I imagine they’d have a perfectly normal, average, well-adjusted-to-reality-as-it-is type kid. They would be unable to understand the child and totally frustrated as parents.

Frosty’s adventure didn’t last long, did it?
chazandru almost 12 years ago
It would be an interesting movie that had Calvin and Danae meeting in college, or court, or wherever.Happy New Year Neighbors.C.

" Can you imagine if Calvin and Dane grew up and had a kid together??". Google “Hobbes and Bacon” for a four part story of Calvin and Suzie grown up with a daughter named Bacon. @Varnes and all: W C Fields carried around a little liquor in case of snakebite, AND he carried around a little snake.

Either I’m having a deja vu moment or this is a repeat.

Of course, she is wearing her goolishes; wonder if the victim was the ‘mad hatter’ or now the had hatter?
jimsizemore1405 almost 12 years ago
Should be Congress’s Amazon adventure, not Fosty.
Nonny almost 12 years ago
Stealing a page from Calvin’s book, I see.

First real laugh of the day. Thanks Wiley.
sbchamp almost 12 years ago
Calvin approves!
Douglas Hakey almost 12 years ago
How about calling it “Frosty’s Florida adventure”.
maybeinthenextworld almost 12 years ago
Calvin may own the snowman setup, but this is a worthy homage.
baileydean almost 12 years ago
… and when reptiles are cold they’re reeealy, reeealy slooooow..The snake only caught up with Frosty ‘cause Frosty doesn’t have any feet… and the snake had scoots (sp?) and his ‘snakey ways’…!

I know I am no more to Danae than a booger brained boy, but I love her sense of the absurd. I really do. In fact, we may have been separated at birth. Yeah, that’s it, we’re dizygotic twins.
KEA almost 12 years ago
Are we sure she’s not related to Wednesday Addams?
jahoody almost 12 years ago
my dad would have said: “that sno snake”…….get it?
Dry and Dusty Premium Member almost 12 years ago
Danae has already met Calvin. Can’t you tell? :-D

In the Spring, both snake and Frosty the Snowman will melt and return in next year’s snowflakes…… As Frosty the Snowsnake.

You never know, maybe the 49ers or Redskins will make the Super bowl, but Denver has hard teams they proably will face(Colts, Pats,Bengals)
ShadowBeast Premium Member almost 12 years ago
I think this is a repeat.This looks familiar.

This has been the most cheerful and respectful set of comments today that I have seen in a long while. Thank you, Wiley, for turning the political lamp out.>>Happy New Year, y’all.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member almost 12 years ago
@Wiley, I stared reading or at least looking at the Sunday funnies when I was about 4 or 5, back in the late 50’s. My first comiexposure began with “Bringing Up Father”, “Blondie”, “Beetle Bailey, Little Lulu”, etc. I’m sure I have forgotten some, and some are no longer around anywhere, but they taught me a deep appreciation for the comics, to this day.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member almost 12 years ago
THAT SHOULD BE STARTED not STARED!
WHEN WILL THEY BRING BACK THE DANG EDIT BUTTON? See another mistake up there, too, but so what? :-D
David Partlow Premium Member almost 12 years ago
I like the cartoon, but this is the 2nd frosty cartoon today where his missing button nose was replaced with a carrot.
