Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 19, 2009

Gee, I wonder why the paramedics didn’t ask him if he was all right? Are you sure you want to have him spend the night, Dick?

Why is there a stairway coming out of the good doctor’s head? Oh, wait, I guess it’s that right-angle smoke we first saw in the good ol’ days of the Robodick story.

I know that I am flogging a deceased equine with unusual vigor, but after a explosion of that intensity, would not the Dr/professor be admitted for observation?

This is DT Land, where nonsense reigns supreme.

It may have been an intense explosion, but it was spread over several weeks, so it wasn’t that bad.

Tracy approached Dr. Noll, left hand in a fist in case the good doctor tried to touch him with that finger he just had up his nose. “Are you all right, Dr. Noll”? Dr. Noll wondered why everyone was so concerned about him. So there was a little explosion at his house, big deal! Everyone had a little accident once in a while, didn’t they? I mean look at Tracy’s pants! “I found the final formula, I just can’t remember which one it is”. Dick almost felt pity for the man. “It must be hard to start losing your memory”, he pondered as he started to feel a little rumbling in his stomach. Dick was glad his memory was as sharp as ever. He knew that “Chief Lizz” loved to fire anyone that showed signs of memory loss. She used that as an excuse to bring her own people in, like that moron Lt. Teevo. She even had a name for those poor people she accused of becoming senile. She called it “Pulling a Locher”,whatever that meant. “Your house is a mess and everything smell’s like perfume”. Dick told the good doctor, forgetting that Noll should really go the the hospital to be checked for any internal injuries. “You’ll stay at our home tonight”. Tess just stood next to her men, thought about the strange woman leaping in her house, and began to consider the possibilites.

bassmanbob, wasn’t Teevo brought on before Liz became chief?

Oh, BROTHER!!!!!!!! (rolls eyes)

That’s very neighborly of Dick. It reminds me of a simpler time when people trusted their neighbors (even if they had just almost run them over or blown themselves and their home up). Plus, how else were Angelorious and Noll going to meet? Is love in the air?

Let me see if I got this straight…

The crazy Dr. Stumps (Noll) blows up his house creating Eau de Dick

The Fire Department CALLS to see if the house is, in fact, fully engulfed in flames. Apparently not and the good doctor says everything is “OK”.

The doctor comes out with smoke pouring out of his ears and arse yet still is “OK”, no medical check?

*Dick and Tess left unknown Anthraxalicious back at the house….alone?

The good doctor is wanted by the CIA, but Lizz, Lt Teevo and the rest of the gang don’t read the police bulletins that you would expect have been circulated for this guy.

Magnetic fingers should qualify DL for some sort Nobel Prize in Physics

*Dick and Tess don’t know the good doctor from adam but they are going to invite him back to the house to stay over? Doesn’t Dick Tracy read the Snotpickers Grabbag every Sunday? You should never invite evil professors for a sleepover until you do a background check!

Since when does smoke make right 90° angles?

Another discovery!!!

DLisagenius!

let me get this straight………

oh, never mind.

Shouldn’t Nubby get medical attention based on the fact HE LOST A FRIGGING EYE???

Hey Ludwig, How do you write that kind of stuff and not get a FRI**G Bleeep? I was censored for “ass”!

Sydney, I have no idea. I was surprised that it came through.

bassmanbob, You’re getting better at this mimicry game every day. Your score today comes in at 9.5 out of 10. It’s great ! Can’t figure out how those Woodstock boys don’t hail your WORK as ‘Superb’. How about an observation on the Grouco eyebrows ? Perhaps we should get a name change in Naperville. Say, Bob Locher. Glad you still spell the name LIZZ !

Speaking of NAMES I think, like Jeff, I may ‘assume’ a new identity on the board. ‘Sydney’ sounds too pedestrian and at best, cockney Australian.

How about DLudicrous ? As in this way it puts me in ‘lock step’ with the other “D” and provides a free pass to be …absurdly rediculous.
