    I think Teresa means comic STRIPS, not comic books. When I think of the word COMICS around here, I think of the kind of comics found on GoComics. I could be wrong. I often am.

    Porcupines. I don’t get it. No pork, no pine, no cup. Don’t even get me started on pineapples.

    I may be tempting fate, but I am writing another comment because I can! I am allowed two comments per minute, so this is my second comment. And, yes, I still have Bath-Mat Fever, but my symptoms are subsiding… my itchy earlobes specifically.

    History Seen? I thought that’s what the History Channel was for, until it turned into a refuge for the tinfoil hat crowd.

    How do porcupines do it? Very carefully.

    The eye of the porcupine needle.

    The scare crow straw that broke

    The camel’s back.

    Step on a crack and break your Mama’s back.

    Porcupine Badminton is bound to be the very next phase…

    Despite the negativity of the naysayer, the comics actually WERE being overrun by porcupines.

    I don’t know whether to believe a person when he speaks out of a quadrant of his face. I mean, two-faced is one thing (Dick Tracy villains notwithstanding), but four-faced?

    Sesquipedalianism was a popular form of humor among people born around the turn of the 20th century.

    I don’t mean to sound hystricine (it means I do mean to sound hystricine), but among my regular set of comics that I read here on GC is The Grizzwells, in which a dim-witted but lovable porcupine named Pierpoint is the sidekick to featured character Gunther Grizzwell, a rather heavyweight Grizzly Bear, married, with children, but whose lifestyle revolves chiefly around eating and sleeping.

    Other than that, I’m not too hystricine. I do like hedgehogs….

    Drove past Saint Teresa’s of Calcutta today. There were no frogs in evidence, though I believe I did spy a Tadpole Field out back.
