Monty by Jim Meddick for December 02, 2024

So yesterday’s Sunday strip was just skipped unceremoniously?

Ouch

Sounds pleasant…

I’ve never been a fan of Charley horses (who is?) but they were just unpleasant when they occasionally occurred, until this past year when I started getting them in the big muscle on the front of the thigh. This muscle has been feeling like it’s on fire for a couple of years now and I haven’t found a way to make it stop (it’s from the herniated disks in my lower back, my entire right leg is affected with parts of it tingling, sharp pain, dull aching pain or numb) anyway when that burning muscle cramps up it’s barely bearable!

And I’m glad to see the professor again!

Sorry, Charley

At the factory job I would always drink ginger ale to help with my time and motion sickness.

I think doc looks much sounder that way?

Travel East from Asia (say Japan or Korea) to the U.S. if you want to experience real time travel, and the effects from it.

but you can only imagine the pain…

I’m a time traveler, and I’ve never had this issue.

Granted, I travel at the normal speed, and only in one direction.

I love this arc

You need help so you came to see MONTY and not people in the future who are actually good at things?

“BCE”, How annoying. Especially in December! Just what event seperates the “BCE” from the “CE”? They haven’t changed anything, just put on a mask in hopes that after several decades of children learning this, that event may fade away, but it never will.

He should call The Doctor for his problem.

Hope it’s not contagious! :)

It was a time warp.

It’s just a jump to the left.

Then a skip to the right.

A coupla questions here.

1) AFAICT, I’ve never had a charley horse, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never heard anyone who HAS had one describe it. Is it something like a muscle cramp?

2) Who’s Charley and what is it about his horse that leads people to think they’ve got it?

sounds painful

Lamb Chop and Charlie Horse worked closely with Shari Lewis.

Molecular cramps? That’s gotta hurt.
