One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for October 05, 2012

She’s been watching the evening news again.

That’s “mooch”, related to leeches but with more sympathetic press.

Curlers do not work for Ruthie.

Leeches would make me emotional. And hystrionic.

A beautiful bonding scene. All parents should take time to make their children feel needed and loved.

Ah, yes – Parasite TV – channel 2742.

Ruthie, stop watching C-SPAN !

Coming soon on the Discovery Channel – Leech Week.

on National Geographic?

Ah yes, the Leech Channel……..are they doing Sports Player Agents Week featuring Scott Boras?

CSPAN

Maybe she was watching “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.”…Oh, wait. That’s Robin Leach. Never mind.

I think Ruthy would make a good beautician.

This strip reminds me of my daughter and I minus the talk of leaches.
