Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for December 31, 2022

“Mirth & Mayhem.”

“Yup!”, D’arnot blathered on. “And in this time Tarzie killed – with bare hands – lions and crocs and gnats that tried to attack us. And he did well…hmmm OK, there was this single situation, where we got badly bitten by the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog and lost a dozen of people or so, but I guess that was only because he had a ‘bad hare day’…”

“OK, then”, Tarzan uttered “Let’s go south” while he headed north, hitting a tree and fell in a Burmese Tiger Trap

“Can I take back my words?”, Letha grumbled a little less softly than before

Sorry, Letha, but Tarzan is very taken.

Why did they come in the first place? Why not let Tarzan find the Warrick guy?

Tarzan, Four Men and a Woman sounds like a movie title.

TCM had a Tarzan movie marathon yesterday. I watched a bit of it and got to see Cheeta shoot a Nazi with a machine gun.

Apparently the new Indiana Jones movie is going to have Nazis. They’d better also have at least one chimp with a machine gun. I’m just saying.

Later, Helen regretted her decision when Tarzan made all of the women carry the tents and remaining supplies.

And so, with Tarzan at the lead, our brave group of campers push on – ready to face the dangers that lie ahead.

Go anywhere with Tarzan, Letha? How’s about lying down atop that pile of palm fronds over there and see what comes next? Mon Dieu and OooooLaLa! Happy New Year, Tribemates!!

“Good,” said Tarzan. “Our way is across a crocodile-infested river, up a 500 foot cliff face, and through a large village of hostile natives. I love this stuff.”

Even they did turn back the only available food would be the half rotten corpse of that alligator TZ killed last week.

Tarzan is a natural born leader.

Ah – but who knows what dangers, and evil, lurks in the hearts of men?!?
