Viola: Congratulations, Petey Potterpoop, on getting your clay pot into the rear, secondary, Art Room showcase! Petey: Thanks! It's - *CRUMBLE* Viola: Oh. Petey: No. Viola: Must be faulty clay. At least the remaining dust has covered your name tag so no one need know. Petey: Oh. Good.

oh to even have a display case. My school put one in for trophies…. for the sports teams, but somehow there was not enough money for one for the kids artwork. Now that we won state in ART and have trophies i wonder if we will ever get one.

I think that maybe Viola felt bad about what she had said yesterday, and tried to cheer Petey up. They shouldn’t have set up speech vibrations, though.

One year, my yarn knitted onto burlap picture was used in an art display and I never got it back. I’m still bitter about it. :-)

This has an uncomfortable Charlie Brown feel to it, but at least the girl, thoughtless as she can be, isn’t as horrid as the Peanuts females (mean, self-centered, humorless).

Wow! I never realized until now that the word “crumble” is onomatopoeic. Thank you, Richard, for enlightening me with the sound effect in the second panel!
