why do you always wear a hat with such a long bill, eddie? to keep my nose socially acceptable uh...how's that? a prominent nose like mine catches an awful lot of sun so I need a long bill to keep it from gettin' too tanned ok...what's wrong with that? well, I heard that no one likes a brown nose no...you see...that's not what it... leave it alone, deah...just l-e-e-eave it alone...

thebird55 - Very cool! How in the world did you do that?

If you had a red nose you could pull santa´s sleigh.

Cap’n Eddie is not smoking - that is clearly bubbles coming out of it.
The Maine EPA and DHHS will not tolerate any opposing positions - so stuff that in YOUR PIPE and … (Sigh, and yet another saying goes down the tubes!)

Thebird55, I would like to know how you did that too.
I would also like to know how a person gets BOLD type into their reply
. Anybody willing to help?

not only does the cat change shoulders he also changes the way he faces. I wonder how Capt Eddie’s boat is floating

We’d have to call him Rudolph?

Bdaysuit, you bold like I just did with your name by putting two asterisks both before and after the word of phrase you want to make bold. One asterisk before and after creates Italics. A hash mark and three asterisks before the word and three asterisks after wards makes a larger

Hey it’s MAINE and us Maniacs can do as we wish. And that is a helper cat so it can stay.

Anyway deah, I think just maybe he’s pulling your leg.

I don’t think Cap’n Eddie could brown nose even if he knew what it meant. The results would still be unique. (there, did I do an italics?)

I don’t think those are bubbles coming out of Eddie’s pipe. Notice how they’re always the same, one big bubble suspended about an inch above the top of the pipe. I think he’s doing that demonstration of the Bernoulli principle (more typically done with a vacuum cleaner) and keeping a ping-poing ball suspended in the updraft.
I can sympathize with Eddie, though. My nose isn’t that big, but it’s a perfect ski-jump angle. If I don’t wear a big-billed cap during the summer, the sun plays havoc. But in my case it doesn’t tan, it just burns… and by half-past-July, people start calling me “Rudolph.”

Wiley One:
Capt Eddie would make a terrific stand alone strip. He’s the most interesting character you have! All the others could make walk-on appearances and maintain the story lines.
Destiny23 about 14 years ago
Yeah, Paulie does all the thinking for the pair, since Capt’n Eddie is a little challenged in that department! Thus he’s an assistance animal.

On a first edit all those little tricks will disappear, and will have to be redone. However, for some reason, in subsequent edits those tricks will survive.

A brown noser.
Barbaratoo about 14 years ago
Miss Barbara Spoilsport says that Paulie doesn’t change shoulders; it’s just the perspective of where he’s sitting as the scene changes from left to right or center…
weasel_monkey about 14 years ago
Wiley, that was almost a Dad joke.

Joseph Krois about 14 years ago
A brown nose? Oh I suppose.. Not so quick… Not for Dick… 2 B true… But not 4 U… Quick as Nick… That’s the trick… And keep the nostrils closed…
