Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 02, 2010
Transcript:
Miss Bliss: Children, you may have noticed some exciting new things in our classroom that will be fun and educational! Like our new puppet theater and our new dress-up corner! Both were donated by members of the Blisshaven community! Dill: My mom tried to donate my brothers' welding kit, paintball supplies an old fireworks, but Miss Bliss said, "No Way." Kevin: And the woman talks about fun.

Not so keen on the paintball, but the fireworks! Surely, just a few cherry bombs wouldn’t hurt….

Alice will stop biding her time, waiting to make her play for attention as soon as she realizes that fist-pounding Kevin is already trying to establish himself as Alpha Male of the preschool.

Teachers. their idea of fun consists of singing the multiplication table and what not. Oh! mabye you should have offered the trebuchet; I’m sure she would agree with that!
