And is that a trigger guard or a wedding ring?

Bloom County I have to assume this refers to the Iran-Contra scandal, since the timing (early 1987) seems about right for continued fallout from that affair. Calvin And Hobbes  Back In The Day looks like something from the back-pages of Nickelodeon Magazine a couple of decades ago.

Peanuts: Just because he's going along with it doesn't mean Linus can't ladle on the drama. (January 6, 1967) Funky Winkerbean  Popeye  Just about what you would expect. Popeye's granny is Popeye in a dress, so Popeye's pirate ancestor is a peg-leg Popeye with better hair. Rip Haywire  Pogo, in which the caucus disintegrates into back-room maneuvering. (January 6, 1956)  Out Our Way (March 5-6, 1924)

A good host will seat them in an armchair next to the dog. The shy guest gets to connect with something, the dog gets a night of free head scritches, everybody wins.

Unless we see a body, he's fair game to reappear somewhere down the road. Out of the Tracy villains we have hanging around now, both BB Eyes and Mumbles were "killed" at least once before. (If we do see a body, there's still plenty of ways around that.)

In case anyone's curious to catch up and not slog through ad-filled websites, I've been archiving The Phantom and Rip Haywire offsite: Rip Haywire: http://haywire.h-domains.com The Phantom: http://phantom.h-domains.com The Phantom strips are organized by story, while Rip is organized by month. I started collecting the latter just to try and make sense of the haphazard plotting, but it's grown on me.

Gil Only mom-approved books Gil. Retail   at Cooper acting like some kind of retail Casanova. The only way I see to salvage this mentoring relationship they have going on is if Donnie starts following Cooper's advice and everything going horribly wrong.Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  "When I said something that would get Karl to enjoy winter I didn't expect you to actually give him something that would get him to enjoy winter." Dustin  Saw the punchline coming from panel one. You need to do better, Steve Kelley. On the Fastrack  Uh, why? There is such a thing as caring too much about your job.

The luger wasn't the only German sidearm of WW II but it doesn't look like any of the others either. Basically Brooke doesn't care. That Fingerpori luger in the ss driving gag is well rendered and so was the Out Our Way 1903 Elf was shooting (thanks Cyrano4747 for the positive ID). edit: badly formed url tag. Mi scusi.

For those of you playing at home, Mumbles has been: -Stranded on a life raft in the middle of the ocean for days -Punctured same raft and drowned -Fell out of a helicopter and drowned in a swamp* -Fell out of the top story of a luxury hotel** Mumbles can not, will not, die. * He used yoga to fake his own death ** He landed in a pool, because by that point bodies of water owed him one. Also, this was Mumbles' "Clone", 'made' by Dr. Zy Ghote giving Mumbles plastic surgery because ???

Holy Molé Here's another comic that I sometimes post. Holy Molé (pronounced "moley") is a comic strip by Rick Hotton that appears in numerous newspapers, magazines, and online publications. It's basically zen in comic strip form. The titular character is a mole who goes on a spiritual journey for enlightenment. Other characters include a wise old turtle, a cat who likes to lie around, some penguins, and others. TL;DR version: It's a zen comic.

Fingerpori - It's a pity I can't ride my bicycle in the slippery winter... - Sure you can, with studs! The word for tyre studs is nastat, which also means thumbtacks or pins. Moreover, the adessive case (-lla) translates differently to English depending on where and how it's used: nastoilla can mean "with studs" (instrumental use) or "on tacks" (position, on top of something). As an aside, it always feels a little weird to change the Finnish passive voice into active in English. It feels like they're too forward. I wish "one can't ride one's bicycle", "sure one can!" were normal speech. tiistai fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Jan 4, 2014 |

When I went to public elementary, we did for some subjects. We had homeroom, then math and reading we'd test for ability levels at the start of the year and then go to a different classroom for those subjects. Pretty sure science and history and whatnot were in homeroom though.
