Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 27, 2012

He’s on it!

Gotta wonder what Dill looks like when he’s holding his hat… thing can poke an eye out.

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?

That’s right Petey, don’t ask!

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.

He listens about as well as parents…

10:99 O’Clock? Reminds me of when Dennis Micthell aka “The Menace” would count up to’ eleventy-twenty".

Love it!

Oh, count me in. We need snow in Northern Cali.!!!!!

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.
