Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 01, 2010

She thought she was saving a life….

Petey, Petey, Petey. Hat, Blanket, Sunscreen…..sheesh.

Precious little fuzz-ball! Yes, you are!

At least she didn’t give it mouth-to-mouth.

Help save a fuzz ball today.

^The next fuzz ball you save could be yours…

Maybe Alice can borrow some of Petey’s charitable impulse for the day - he’s not using any.

Alice, you put that back in my navel right now!

I love the pool scenes! The water and Alice with wet hair–very cute. :)

This is the funniest cartoon on the market today.

I feel all warm and fuzzy.

That does sound like either a great movie or book title, Alice.

Petey’s risking some serious toe-burn unless that’s a pretty high SPF.

A person’s a person, no matter how fuzzy…

Just go stomp on the fuzz for wasting your time, Alice. It won’t have any more effect than saving it from drowning, but it’ll make you feel better.

So good. Love the watercolor water color.

At first, I thought Alice was looking for a fish-slapping bear…

awesome artwork

Great subtle use of perspective in the pool.

Petey always has something witty to say.

a finite quantity of “charitable impulse” - priceless

I’m a day late with this, but maybe this is what Alice was saving, not a fluff but… http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2010/07/fridaycephalopodthemammali.php#commentsArea

Brilliant pacing and sequencing!

Alice looks so cute in the second panel!
