Monty by Jim Meddick for April 25, 2012

Been there, done that.

I know that curse, its a real bummer. Can’t eat solid foods for a week

Monty looks perplexed and ready to offer up a mild oath or some comment. As we say in Aussie strine…Strewth Monty’s been stonkered on this one.

The serious, mature job of child-humoring….

you start to drink your beer out of a coffee mug

If observing Doug and Eucy doesn’t turn Monty off the idea of marriage and family, then maybe he would be okay as a dad.

He would, but his kids would turn out to be like my kids, if I had any – nerds. But that’s okay. Some of the world’s nicest people are nerds.

Today’s strip is kind off touching, Meddick. Brought back fond memories of sounding like a raving lunatic when I read the kid’s Suess and Grim’s tales…hey, it’s not that easy to immitate an old witch or a talking rodent, try it!!

Beautiful! Cf. O. Henry’s “Defeat of the City” (http://www.literaturecollection.com/a/o_henry/241/).

So when Cousin Itt going to arrive?

I thought it would make him dance uncontrollably.

So true
