Beni: I've been flushing an ice cube every night and it still hasn't snowed. Alice + Dill: Me too. Beni: We should pic a time and all do it simultaneously. Alice: Yeah! That'd work! Petey, tell me when it's 100:00 o'clock. I've gotta dump ice in the toilet. Petey: Righty-oh.

100:99 ? You only have about ten more minutes. Hurry … run, run before the ice melts.

Isn’t that past their bed time?

Yes, it’s 500 pages, but they’re all of Little Neuro sitting at a desk pondering, so he can skip a few hundred without missing anything.

I hope they’ve coordinated their clocks as they await the stroke of 100:99! Simultaneous flushings should have some kind of effect! Maybe even snow; who knows?

Chibi-Robo: Looks like she is allowed to flush ice cubes again. I hope it doesn’t snow peas again!
Marcus: HA! You made a pun!

Boy, if flushing ice cubes really could cause it to snow, I’d run a tube from the ice maker to the toilet and flush my way to a nice blizzard. Our pathetic lack of snow this year is depressing.

Do you live in the Chicago area, by any chance…? ;)

LOVE Petey’s reaction – just snarky enough to be funny but reminds me of Kermit the Frog. :) And how on earth does Beni know the word “simultaneously” and how do the others know what it means? They must have advanced vocabulary in that school!

I gotta dump something in the toilet at that time too.

Actually kids pick up their vocabulary from the people around them. I can imagine several people in this strip using “simultaneously” often enough for the four-year-olds to pick it up.
