Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for November 01, 2011
Transcript:
Bucky: What is that, a Halloween costume? Satchel: What else would it be? Bucky: Are you the ghost of christmas family strife? Satchel: Close, I'm Saturn from a painting by a guy named Goya. Bucky: you look like Mrs. Dingle from 2A eating her chihuahua. Satchel: Maybe that's why the guy in 2B threw his bowl at me.

Okay, I had to look this up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_Devouring_His_SonThis is rather disturbing. My trick-or-treaters, on the other hand were so delightful and I had fun joking with them, commenting on their costumes and such.

Suzanne,
Just part of the Mediteranian Mythology. Both the Greeks and the Romans had that kind of thing in their stories. See how and why Zeus gave birth to his daughter Athena.

Ah yes, Saturn Devouring His Children. Those were darker times. … or maybe not.

Hey, Isabel Rolon, no fair reading ahead.

I thought it might be the Goya yesterday but decided against it because the dog wasn’t clutching the corpse/doll/whatever. (Never try the Goya canned octopus; it’s terrible.)

The guy in 2B likely threw his cookies too!

At least Saturn only ate each of his children after birth. Unlike Medea who apparently had no qualms in killing anyone and everyone. Sibling, child, in-law, …….
