Ora Zella is in her element with that acrobatic door lock move. And so is Iggy, lining up the alien symbols. Which made me wonder, what must Scrabble be like on their planet?
Iggy has the symbols for A, B, C, D, H, and one I can’t see well because Lupin’s speech bubble crosses it. Off to the side are punctuation marks ’ and !
I’m not sure Lupin ever learnedabout the Golden Rule, but I’m pretty sure Ora Zella misheard it as, “Do unto others before they do unto you.” At least, that’s how she behave anyway …
still sending prayers to TampaBay Fanatic and other Floridian friends who are missing. hoping you get power, wifi and whatever else is needed back soonest.
What a mess, first the Ding Dongs get knocked to the floor and the cats bat them around and now they have spilled the Alpha Bits Cereal all over the floor. I think the woman is going to be mad when she sees this mess.
Is that fear in Lupin’s eyes? And did little miss OraZ just close and lock the door rather than taking on the upsetting amount of roombas all by her lonesome? I’m amazed by both! Glad to see young Iggy is still having fun!
Georgia posted on facebook about Elvis: “You’re looking at the face of regret, on a boy who ran across a hot stove tonight and burned his paw seconds after the burner was turned off high for tea. I managed to get his paw into a glass of cold water (he was FURIOUS) and tried to apply an ice pack. His fur is singed, he’s limping a bit, and his paw pads are sensitive but not blistering. Poor, poor sweet boy. I’m keeping an eye on his paw and giving him lots of pets.”
I’m betting that instead of regret (“Why did I run across the stove?”), Elvis is puzzling over why she suddenly stuck his paw into cold water for absolutely no reason!
There was a strip a few weeks (or months?) back where Ora Zella (I think) doesn’t want to be held and says “Don’t tell me how to live my life!” Does anyone know the date of that? I want to share it with a friend.

…what? Roombas from space? No, they’ll do fine with that. Lupin taking responsibility in a crisis, and doing it well? They better believe it!

At least it looks like Lupin has convinced OZ about the odds of taking on the roombas.

If the roombas were that upsetting, then they should have just upset them. They were all stacked up, after all.

Here they come again
Just when it was fun to spoil their get-together
They soar right in the door, just like they’ve done before
It’s whappin’, bless her heart, that makes OZ want to linger
Here they come again
Just when Ig’s about to make it work with his clues
Just look at how he tries, sweet li’l kicks that show he’s wise
And pretty soon I’m wondering what that message construes
All we gotta do is watch that smile
See it glow as he progresses
Just leave it up to Ig and in a little while
His brilliant tiny mind is filled with his successes
Here bots come again
Looking fresher than a robot has a right to
And shaking the house so, that all we really know
Is here they come again, and here we go
Here they come again
And here we go
Here we go
Sweet Iggy, go! ❤️

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile
Beatrixia: I found another scroll from the Lost in Futurity collection. It mentions an alien invasion.
Iggy: I wonder if it has a code like the one my descendant decoded.
Bea: Let’s read it to find out:
I was out looking for carrots when a group of my dust bunny friends came running up to me in a panic.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Help us! There is a huge roomba ship after us!” My friend Roger said. “They’re threatening to vacuum up each and every one of us.”
“We’ll see about that.” I replied. “You, there! You must be the head roomba. What do you mean by menacing all my friends‽”
“We are sworn to vacuum up all dust bunnies. It’s what we do.”
“Not on my watch!” I replied. “Any roombas will have to deal with me!”
“And you are?” asked the roomba.
“You can call me Harvey!”
