Lio by Mark Tatulli for October 29, 2019

If you haven’t seen The Exorcist, you won’t get it.

Wonder how they knew to call Lio’s house?

Scariest movie I have ever seen.

I have seen the exorcist, and I still don’t get it.

Regan’s demons calling by phone now?

His mother sews socks that smell.

That’s why everyone’s getting rid of their land lines.

guessed it on the first try! — that makes “1” for me

Thanks, didn’t notice the collar.

“Sorry, wrong number!”

Hopefully, the phone won’t transmit vomit.

Seems like this would’ve hit a nerve with Lio, since his mother’s dead too…

“Your mother cleans clocks in Hades.”

Plenty of other possessions going on. One fellow I know claimed that some people who are mentally ill he can tell are really possessed. Which takes us back to before psychiatry and people simply worked from the Bible on this.

Man, that is dark.

Okay, I knew Fr. Karras’s wife from college (i.e., Linda Miller, Jackie Gleason’s daughter, who married Jason Miller; don’t recall knowing him, though). Tortured soul, he was (character; the actor/playwright I wouldn’t say).

Did not know his mother….

Does anyone remember the “date” that Lio offered Reagan a breath mint? I’d like to look at that strip again.

Yes, I meant Regan. Sorry.
