Lio by Mark Tatulli for August 22, 2012

Down Fang, DOWN!

Would this be Dale Gribble’s dream come true or nightmare gone worse? (Killing Liō’s pet big spider, that is.)

Where is the pest control man/woman?

…with Jeff Goldblum as THE FLY!

I think Lio’s pet spider is confused by a plastic advertising “fly” decorating the Larry’s P.C. truck. Rein him in, Lio, ’cause eating that plastic thing would give Spidey a tummy ache, at least!

I think that arachnids should have their own cartoons page so I don’t see them. Anyone else want to sign the petition?

I think that Larry is about to have a heart attack.

Or try to get into Guiness’ world book of records for largest pest controlled. Hold Arachne back, Lio!

@pcolli I had a tarantula for a pet They’re fun

The van reminds me of the one from the MIB movie. If so, look out for aliens (unless lio is one).

Where’s Miss Muffet and her tuffet?Anybody got any curds and whey?

Uh oh!

…Wait does the fly have a white head and leg??

Stones:Sittin’ thinkin’ sinkin’ drinkin’Wond’ring what I’d do when I’m thru tonightSmoking, moping, maybe just hopin’Some little girl will pass on byDon’t wanna be alone but I love my girl at homeI remember what she saidShe said “My, my, my don’t tell lies. Keep fidelity in your headMy, my, my, don’t tell lies. When you’re done you should go to bedDon’t say Hi, like a spider to a flyJump right ahead and you’re dead”

Sit up, fed up, low down, go ‘roundDown at the bar at the place I’m atSitting, drinking, superfic’ly thinkingAbout the rinsed out blonde on my leftThen I said “Hi” like a spider to a flyRemembering what my little girl said

She was common, flirty, she looked about thirtyI would have run away but I was on my ownShe told me later, she’s a machine operatorShe said she liked the way I held the microphoneI said “My, my” like the spider to a fly“Jump right ahead in my web”

really funny.
