“Now I know what a concussion feels like!”

Good thing that hole in the window was already there, or else there’d be glass flying everywhere.

That second panel is pretty avatar worthy, if anyone’s interested.

I take that back, diary,………

When I was nine-years-old, we kept diaries at school. Our teacher sometimes looked in them. She told me that I shouldn’t write “Nothing much happened” for several entries as I should be thinking of something interesting which did happen.

1- (scribble scribble) 2- “Dear Diary, The gang kicked me off our sandlot baseball team because I stink.” 3- CRASH! 4- “At least they gave me back my ball. There’s a silver lining in every cloud! Maybe I’ll get my bat back!”

Well – I guess that qualifies as “interesting….”

nice

Wasn’t that the same entry the King of England put in his diary for July 04, 1776?

Happy in adversity.

That’ll leave a mark.

“Nothing of importance happened today” is the exact journal entry by King George III on July 4th, 1776. Or so the urban legend goes. Unfortunately he never even kept a diary.
