Hi All,

Today’s cartoon is for the Tribe. I’m sure you all know how to get a head… er… get ahead.

And thanks for reading the pointless cartoon.

Thom

Makes sense to me…got to keep going!

Lots of faces!

And here I am running behind. Love it, Thom

A man has a son who has no body, just a head. Still he loves him and raises him well. On the boy’s 21st birthday, the man takes his son to the bar for his first beer. After one sip, a torso appears on the boy. After a second sip, two arms appear as if by magic. Excitedly, the son takes a third sip, and two legs appear. In elation he runs out of the bar shouting, “I have a body!” Sadly, he runs into the path of a truck and is flattened. The bartender turns to the father and says, “That boy should have quite while he was a head.”

“I am not now, nor have ever been a member of the head hunters. Sen McCarthy, show us your list.” BLUE aka *THOM I find your stripe tasteless, insulting, and in keeping with your loyal following. At least you did not use the words “give” of “get”

I assume this is a road down Echo Canyon Drive.

This one might put Lewreader in the Insign Asalum.

BTW lewreader, there’s a face on the rock just to the right of center, but the sign is hiding it…. ;-)

The road goes on forever, the faces never end.

hmmm hmm

This sign is a “diamond” in the rough.

Looks like a head line…….Thom, you’re ahead of your time……☺

Isn’t it the truth!

I’m with you Lewreader. Enough is enough with the “faces” already!

Sorry, Lew, this strip has got to be one of Thom’s best head shots. ..My favorite is on the upper right, in the lighter colored rock…..almost Frankenstein-ish...Wow, a strip dedicated to the Tribe……thanks!

At least while walking down this road you’d never feel alone.

It’s comforting to see all the sentinels on duty so that we may have safe passage as we move ahead.

I saw all those faces. Just wanted to test you. Oh, Nurse!

I think my favorite is the yawning face, mid left, facing us. “Scream” shaped… but just looks sleepy. :º)Thank you Thom!

I always wanted to get “ahead” in life. Thanks Thom! From a former Tribe member. ;-)

major head trip dude

It’s heads above the rest!
