Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for November 02, 2013

Sometimes it takes a woman to point out the obvious… If you love it, put a ring on it.

He wouldn’t really do that to his kids, would he?

Peachy.

I don’t know if Victoria has family in Georgia, but it wouldn’t really be fair to take the kids so far from their grandparents, especially when they already lost their mother. Still, it would be a brave move for a comic strip to have such a major change of location! (He’d better find a house that’s big enough for a horse to live in it!)

To be lovingly watched in awe……

Anybody remember why she moved to Georgia?

I believe Victoria will have to show up there.

Noooo…why would anyone move OUT of Maine???? That is sacrilegious.

Out of the mouths of “babes”.

About flaming time!

Why would anyone in their right mind move from Maine to Georgia?

Realtors across the country are cringing. He did what? Selling his own house is sacrilegious!

Ride, 1000 Miles

For always and ever it’s getting betterI feel your steps with mineI’m moving on like it said in the letterAnother place, another time

You gotta feel and take every chanceYou did the right thingDrove a thousand miles awayOut of trace and in another timeYou did the wrong thingAnd brought it back in your mindWhy’s that so unkind?

Blown awayBlown awayBlown away

“That sign seems to be blocking the sidewalk.”

Indeed it does. Sounds like the perfect way to get people’s attention—especially if they’re busily staring into their phones and whack their heads on it!

one way…..

I hope this doesn’t mean the end of Captain Eddie

No one with any intelligence.

The thing that scares a Southerner the most? A Yankee with a U-Haul.

Okay first Victoria’s cousin, now Victoria. Why are they all leaving the state?

All I can say is leave Texas alone. We like all the others right where they are!

Danae is adaptable…to anything that comes along. She wants to be president…right????

Well, when you write dialog the accents look very similar.Dog—-Northern- Dawg, Southern- Daowg

They need to locate around Savannah if we are to see Capt. Eddie. Don’t think there is enough water in the Chattahoochee – four miles from my house – for his tall tales.

Joe’s mom, Flo, has a point. Long distance relationships don’t work. And if he’s serious enough to move to another state then he should consider just buying a ring and popping the question.

.This is what Bob’s over-the-top skepticism was leading up to? A (fairly poignant) remark by their mother that get Joe’s priorities straight?

damn; I thought we were rid of Victoria forever

Susie is Danae’s sister, a sort of link between Danae and Dad when Danae is, well, being Danae.

If there is to be a change like this, what of the wonderful characters left behind, particularly Captain Eddie and ouah Down East waitress. The New England dialect is near extinct and I’d hate to see it go extinct here.

First move since coming to Maine w the family to be near Mom… How many years has that been? Could introduce some interesting arcs. I would like to see Danae get a teacher who inspires her.

Relax, dude; it’s not a real sidewalk……

If what they have is “real”, she wouldn’t have moved 1,000 miles away! Bada bing!

I don’t like this turn of events at all. Seriously? Disrupt the entire life of yourself and your family on the spur of the moment to follow a woman who rather deliberately moved far away from you? Bad decision, Joe. And highly irresponsible of Mom to prod him into it.

What is really keeping him here? His Mother? his Brother? his job? go to her …marry her….Danae and Katy will either stay with Grandma or adjust to the move.

Katie is the sister,Lucy is the horse.

Oh no, Danae in Georgia!?! That should prove interesting :)

To quote Thor: Say-eth WHAT????

Except it never WAS continued, was it, @wiley? Just like Homer the Reluctant Soul and Ordinary Basil and the Ekert and Jill and every other plotline, you dropped this storyline without warning or completion.
