Lio by Mark Tatulli for February 21, 2014

Which factory: Del Monte or Chiquita?

Note the shape of Lio’s thought-bubble

I seem to remember a similar note that Linus’ mom put in his sack lunch and his remarking, “Mom thinks she’s a card.”

A message from Juanita!For grins and giggles look up Henri Salvador.

I won’t say what went through my mind……..!

Yah, chances are, it’s just Dad making a joke for Lio.BUT, what if it’s a true message from some hostage/prisoner—maybe even Dad himself?!

Cafetorium sounds like Crematorium….

If you’re old enough, they might taste different. Today’s bananas are Cavendish, the ones of 50 or so years ago were a different species, the Gros Michel, which is nearly extinct now due to Panama disease. l

Lio knows.

the banana doesn’t fall too far from the tree…

“A short adventure”…...On the contrary, you’d be trapped with no hope of release; just like I am.

Good one, Dad.

Why have you decided to dislike me?

It is funny though
