Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 25, 2009

You are never safe with Danae around

We’re safe now—for some values of “safe.”

“Get your stinking paws off of me you damned dirty apes!”

Safe = not lunch. I knew King Kong (or at least a relative) would come to the rescue (or at least complicate the plot).

I can’t wait to see what they swing into next.

Minkys?

LordDogmore

Do you think they’ll be taken to Dr. Zera for observation?

Wiley is having fun with this one

I’m impressed that primates that size can be supported by vines. Those must be some dang hefty plant life!

Will Tarzan show up next?

Two apes are about to find their life turning to hell when they have Danae around them.

G-RATED VERSONOF THAT “PLANET OF THE APES” LINE…

“Get your paws off me, you bleeep dirty apes!”

Actually, Planet of the Apes was rated G, in the early days of the ratings system when G-rated movies were not necessarily children’s movies.

That works out good Wiley, Danae doesn’t have to be back in scholl ‘til late August at the earliest. And she gonna have lotsa show and tell this year!!

Wiley – I’ve been reading your strip for years…and I never fail to be impressed! Thank you!

Hey Wiley, you said yesterday that none of us had guessed the outcome and to stay tooned—- I beg to differ…. my comment yesterday was:

either a soft landing, an in flight rescue or a suspension of gravity…..

I forgive your oversight, now send me something cool

cleokaya, yeah, I almost feel sorry for the Minkys…Wiley, I agree with your wife. But take your time, I’m enjoying this story…

dracip. i agree, let this play out at a ‘natural’ pace. vexatron, if you don;t think the vines could be tough enough, try breaking OFF a green branch from a tree sometime. even the smaller ones take far more effort than you might think. (not that i’m advocating the breaking of trees, it’s just an example.)

The cliff doesn’t look so big from this angle.

It’s time for another salsa, bean, and cheese Dorito belch again, or if that doesn’t work something from the other end.

Hey, don’t I win something for my guess yesterday?…..

”I bet those little “bubbly” things following their fall are a meaningful clue….suggesting their suspended in, um….a liquid of sorts?”

That was just my simple way of saying Lars, an anti-gravity bubble, and two apes swinging from vines.

Strange - but a good strange. Love the surprises.

My desk calendar is just at the point where Brenda has come back from ‘Vegas. Looking forward September.

Wiley, we would love to hear your wife’s take on all of this.

Alien abduction with a twist.
