Lio by Mark Tatulli for December 08, 2009

A skull tree! Wonder where they sell those skull seeds…

And the time frame between panels 2 and 3 was….?

Now that’s some quick-growin’ tree!

From little acorns, mighty oaks do grow. And so also Lio has a green thumb for skull-fruit trees…. Hmmm.

There has to be something different about the skull Lio planted; otherwise, every cemetery would have lots of skull trees.

Didn’t the Celts have a thing for hanging heads in trees?

Skull dug Skullduggery? Say that fast 5 times!

That appears to be a weed.

Its deadwood.

Must be a skullbury tree…

Best thing about skull trees…

Making skull pie. Mmmm.

i WANT one.

When I was Lio’s age I was singing about burying lollipop sticks.

Alas poor Yorick, I grew him well.

Simon_Jester: yours was the BEST response!

LOL!

@Simon_Jester - excellent!

Too bad Simon_jester doesn’t know his Shakespeare. The line is “Alas! Poor Yorick. I knew him, Horatio.”

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a partridge in a HOLY CR@P THAT TREE IS FULL OF SKULLS!!

Anyone here bold enough to make a joke involving pu$$y willows?

@SW; with skulls dangling from each willow? Whew!

When they were excavating for Kaneohe Bay Naval Air Station, there was unearthed a large collection of skulls in the dunes, apparently from one of the last battles of the consolidation of the islands, where the opposition was backed up the Pali and pushed off. The skulls were collected at the bottom and taken away to the dunes, so they could never get back together.

My Dad had one for a little while, with red and green flashing lights in the eye sockets. Mom made him get rid of it. Sigh.

Why didn’t he do that for Halloween?

Hey, I did it! Now where’s my prize? :o)

That’s no tree - it’s a Brain stem!

ROTFL @ sensrule92! (Go, Canucks!)

I should get a whole bag of those.

Wow! never knew lio had a green thumb! :)

I need one in my front yard. Make that two. Or three
