Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for August 28, 2009

Yay!

Whew.

Will they ever have Paris?

but wait for tomorrow….she’ll have to walk back from her quarters.

Gary:

When are you going to turn your lens on the healthcare “town halls”? Plenty of good material in that, suitable for, maybe, your journalist-turned-blogger.

Pierson ‘69

Is calling herself an idiot good for her self esteem?

Talk about a couple of misfits.

Have they met before?

What’s next? Sitting close by at the px? On the freedom flight back home?

Hold up - didn’t The Company specifically bring Jeff back in to the fold? Wasn’t he supposed to be doing valuable stuff? DON’T THINGS NEED EXPLODING ANYMORE? sigh The CIA really needs to re-think its re-recruiting policies in this strip.

Folks would be amazed to discover what the world has to show to those who don’t wear shades.

I can see myself getting really annoyed if, day after day, I have to read teasers about how they do not connect. Is this what Trudeau wants? To get his readers to say,”All right already! Just let them become aware of each other and get it over with!” ?

Hey Gang – the meta-joke here is about the “gun that didn’t go off”. Don’t you know when you’re being played with?

We all realize we are. That’s why we’re annoyed.

hey ben….the future’s so bright….I gotta wear shades!

Suspense is killing me!

Why are people so annoyed by this? I thought it was a great lampshade/subversion of the whole characters meeting by destiny trope.
