Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 21, 2008

The plot advances even further! (With the exception of Traze-R and Tracy, who are still stuck in the same silly dance.)

Question: How do you move Mecha-dickzilla across town in a hurry? It takes a little bit of time to load him in a truck, and the truck hasn’t been built yet that can keep pace with a police cruiser. Getting this guy into position can be quite a project in itself, and just might give Braces warning about what’s coming.

Yes, I know I seem to be out-thinking the cartoonist, but as a truck driver this is something that occurs to me readily.

The guards are just hearing the noise after he was tearing up the place yesterday.

I’m surprised Tracy hasn’t had one of his “hunches” so he would know where “evil” was moving to.

I think these guards are the cannon fodder, like the spare spaceman that went to the planet along with Kirk, Spock, and the Doc. They will not be beamed back home tonight. Marguerite…I just noticed your new avatar. Ummm…very interesting. Yes, that is really SOME avatar. I don’t think that pot will hold much peyote, though.

Wow, looks like all that spray painting of the security camera that MF did yesterday was pretty useless since the guards (1) heard the terrible racket he made and (2) were standing on the other side of the door. Nice one.

Truck driver, don’t feel bad about outthinking the cartoonist. We do it every day here, it is like the mantra of the board. Also, it is very fun and easy to do!

Traze-R, DO SOMETHING! What a cry baby.

Guard: “Quick, shoot out his tires” Guard #2: “Can’t; my gun is empty.” Guard: “No use; they’re Firestones” Guard #2: Then not to worry - they’ll blow out and flip him over” Guard: “Good thinking!”

What was that?

Well, if you open your eyes, you will see a giant robot.

Cool. Let’s go upstairs and call the cops.

This is CRAAAAAZY!!!!! This reminds of the matches of Godzilla and King Kong.

MF: Exterminate! Exterminate! (or else he’ll use that other spray can, which might be Mace)

Traze-r look like he got a mullet/ducktail hair thing goin’ on - and DT has a new ‘wave’ up front - and his jaw line is different - have we got some new interns doing the drawing?

“What is it?”

It’s….Monty Python’s Flying Circus! dum dum dum da dum da dum dum dum de dum de dum…

Hey, c’mon, I have to entertain myself somehow.

Ray C, there’s no pot, he’s sitting on a bench. It’s a skeleton figure from a Dia de Los Muertos celebration. Perfect for Halloween, ne c’est pas?

Margueritem: I knew it wasn’t a pot. Just trying to give you a hard time. Yep, it is a good one for Halloween. You’re tempting me to change now. I hate to give up my photo of our galaxy, though. I had to travel to a spot 165 ilght-years above the galactic plane to get that picture; in a small cardboard box, no less.

Ray C, did the box say ‘rocket’ on the side? Your galaxy picture is great, but you can always go back to it after you’ve tried something new.

So Gweedo you think DT is drawn using the Infinite Monkeys Theory? (kind of a slam that it only needs a thousand of them)

Braces will be home counting his loot before Trzr gets Trcy moving.

Godzilla and King Kong tangled in a really bad movie (was there any other kind involving giant monsters) in 1963. It seems the big ape wasn’t quite fast enough to out-run the Japanese monster-film makers. See below:

Meet Dusky.

What a beautiful cat! Burmese? Siamese?

Yes and yes. Tonkinese, which I believe is a Burmese/Siamese cross. He came with his best friend, Dawn, a Siamese, on a plane from Atlanta. Maybe I’ll post a picture of her soon. http://www.kittentanz.com/

Beautiful cats at that website. This is Oscar. He visits patients at the local hospital.

Get thee to a cattery! Special place in Heaven for Oscar. That’s a great ministry.
