Lio by Mark Tatulli for December 29, 2011

boom boom boom

Lio is ready!

Where did Lio get the money to pay for all that?

Lio is determined to make sure the world ends on schedule.

Tanks for the memories.

It will be the best fireworks display for New Year’s Day Dad has ever seen in his living room! Charge!

Cool, a self-propelled fireworks display!

I want to go to Lio’s house for New Years Eve!

Whether it’s New Year’s eve or the 4th Of July, with Lio, it’s never “safe and sane”.

Details escape me, but Dukakis was a New England Governor that ran for President against either Reagan or Daddy Bush.He had a photo op standing in the turret of a tank.

im going to be hideing under my bed this new year. (with my dog.)

i did not get it either. i first chalked it up to my normal slow whit, but i feel better about that now. if you did not get it it must be way out there… : )

Not with this kid…

It’s the End Of The World As He Knows It & He Feels Fine….

How did the Mayans know of Lio’s New Years preperations way back in their time?

Dogs – it’s a reference to a photo op that ended the 1987 presidential aspirations for Michael Dukakis.

While one might think that a picture of a candidate in a miltary tank may bolster the machismo factor, in essence most folks thought he looked like a dweeb.

After that, he was no longer considered a serious contender.

One such photo is here: http://tinyurl.com/cooxrfz

WHOA!!!!!!!!!!

Where shall we invade next? So many countries, so little time.

Watch out Dick Clark!

Looks like Lios celebrating New Years N.Korean – style.

…and the rockets red glare…

Where can I get one?

“Drive me closer! I want to hit them with my sword!”

Have fun Lio!
