Prickly City by Scott Stantis for December 29, 2024

I went to Lady Lake today, went to BJ’s, Lowes and Walmart and was pleasantly surprised, absolutely no crowds and traffic was light

Stantis is becoming the go to cartoonist about nothingness.

I have always liked the last week. Whenever I could it would be the week I used up the vacation days I had left. Stantis looks like he might need a break from politics.

It looks like the annual “week between Christmas and New Years zombies” either all died out or this duo eradicated them.

Reminds me of a Twilight Zone lead in, with Rod Serling off screen saying, “You’re about to enter the Twilight Zone”.

I thought it was a week to stuff your face with the remains of goodies left from December, before you resolve to lose weight in2025.

It has all of the nothingness of standing on the bottom of the deep end of a swimming pool.

It’ raining in Chicagoland. It could be snowing, that would be something.

Jimmy Carter just died. He was a person of unimpeachable integrity, such as we have seldom seen in some recent office holders, both in his time of service and in the long years after that service when he dedicated his time to helping all.
