Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for December 17, 2022

Oddly, this story arc is feeling a little nerve-wracking right now … in a good way, I mean.

I remember where my spare key is.

Makes me wonder already: why wasn’t there a spare key to the Flintstones’ cave when Fred got locked out (after putting out the saber-toothed cat for the night) and Wilma was never answering to his yells to open the door?

if she’s brain, he must be pinky…

narf!!

not going to be taking over the world while locked out of the house…

I too have that problem….but I’m 84 so….

“So brave knights if you do doubt your courage, or your strength, come nae further, for death awaits ye all, with lots of sharp, nasty, teeth!”

I wouldn’t mind betting that Wallace knows where it is.

Wiki is telling me that the song which topped the Billboard Top 100 in 2002 was “How You Remind Me”… by Nickelback.

And I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream, “Are we having fun yet?”

I’d look under the decorative metal milk can in the garden next to the swing set.

Sterling: “I ate it!”

Someone mentioned Wallace through a window a few days ago. That may be the way this arc ends.

Sterling just looks so darn pleased with himself..!

I can relate – I have a spare key outside – somewhere.

Maybe Spud has a key. He seems to get into the house at will.

Well, we just moved, so my spare key is…nonexistent.

I see the seagull has already left. So going by Sterling’s reason for locking the door, who’s going to survive until morning?

I can relate to this so hard, it’s not even funny.

…well, okay, it’s a little funny…

Time for one of those digital locks for the door. Make your password: 1-2-3-4.

We have a lockbox with a key in it screwed to the wall of the porch and a numerical code to open the box. … Now what IS that darn code?

Ever since someone on this thread suggested Wallace’s window, I can’t get that out of my head as the obvious choice.

Either Sterling has it in his pocket or Wallace has one around his neck.

I remember all the words to the tv show theme Green Acres!

Crest has been shown to be an effective decay-preventive dentrifice that can be of significant value when used in a conscientiously applied program of oral hygiene and regular professional care. Council on Dental Therapeutics, American Dental Association.

Memorized 60 years ago – from a tube of Crest toothpaste.

Weirdly enough, I can quote the above anytime, but when trying to type it I lost it, and had to look it up.

A spare key wouldn’t help me – hoarder hubby has blocked both the front door and the back door, so the only way in or out is through the garage. Which can be a pain when the power goes out, even a single car garage door is heavy.

They’ll find the key, no worries. Right after Dad breaks a window to get in.

I’m surprised the kids don’t know where it is hidden. They usually know ALL your best hiding places!!!!!

I am surprised that neither of the adults are carrying them.
