Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for June 08, 2020

”Excuses, Excuses.” ✨

Good morning™, boyfriends!

Here’s where Shaky gets told off for coming home really late! This excuse is not a good excuse. He already wrote that in the note.

Duh?!

You’re in trouble now Shaky. Edison had some empowering girl talk and she’s ready for you.

Good morning™, dig your own grave-ers !

No easy way out for you, buddy boy. The more his mouth moves the deeper he gets.

Apartment 3G returns. So much for yesterday’s teaser.

From the looks of her outfit, it appears that the comely and delectable Edison paid attention to Crystal’s fashion and wardrobe tips when they were at the mall.

Is that a poor man’s lava lamp or a strip of flypaper on the table in Ps 1 & 2, by gar?

WilliamVollmer queried about 16 hours ago

“Neil, and, our other Tracy historians, is this “revisionist” history, rewroten to make Breathless look like a victim here, or…”

Police officer Grey barked back

Caerin carelessly blurted about 15 hours ago

“rewrotten”???? Perhaps you meant “rewritten” . Rewrotten is not a word. Grammar police signing out;)

The way he spelled it I read it as “re wrote en”. YOU added an extra t to get “re wrott en”.

Spelling police signing out ! :-D

I see a bad ending for Edison in this storyline…

Yeah, but it’s not like that baby! See, a truck had me blocked in, yeah, and the bridge got washed out. I came down with the 18-hr flu. I was mugged and left unconscious. And, and there was a terrible swarm of locusts, and dogs too! Yeah a hungry pack of vile and vicious dogs, and not a leash on ‘em. I got drafted into the Foreign Legion! Aliens attacked and John Goodman hid me in his secret bunker…

But all I kept thinkin’ about was how to get back to you, honest I did.

Don’t know about a lava lamp but there is a volcano about to go off…

Shaky, You got some splainin’ to do!!!

Suckup! Too late I’m afraid!

No sugar tonight.

Can this story be any MORE ridiculous? It’s more than halfway thru and WE STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT’S GOING ON!!

He couldn’t get it up so he snuck out on her

1-JAY: Lucy! I’m home!

2-JAY: Lucy! What happened to the rest of your dress? WHATSERNAME: It’s the latest fashion. Everyone at the outlet mall is wearing it.

3-JAY: I hope you got it for half off! Looks like you should a washed it in cold water. Were you accidentally shopping in the little girls department? I feel like doing a little stargazing tonight. Bend over. I hear the moon’s full tonight. Not to mention a clear view of Ur…

WHATSERNAME: DON’T SAY IT!

Go Edison! Make him say what he do without you!

Today is the 46th anniversary of my marriage to my wonderful wife, Cindy.

“Hey, baby, it’s not my fault that I’m late. I went into a phone booth to call you and forgot that I didn’t have any change. I don’t know how, but the door disappeared and I was stuck in there until someone let me out. That’s the truth!”

“Well…okay, I guess that’s a good reason…”

This is all Ugly Crystal’s fault! (although I am enjoying it.) Hand him his walking papers Edison, you’re a pearl in paradise.

I’m not sure just what Shakey’s story is trying to be: He comes in in the morning, announcing that he’s home, and claims that he came in earlier, saw the comely and delectable Edison on the couch sleeping, and then, rather than wake her or go to bed (? do they share quarters? a bed?), he went out again in his tux and returned in the morning? Or something like that?

Edison is doing the Hands-on-Hips Thing! Oh, boy. I’d be shaky, too, Shaky Mk.2! Either you’re going to skedaddle, fast, or Edison is going to be putting a Big Hurt on you! The stuff has hit the fan (with a little nudge from Crystal)!

I believe our comely and delectable Edison has had about enough of Shaky.
