Les’ verbal caning of Owen continues, as does Owen’s dim perception of right and wrong. To quote the late John Wayne, “…it’s gettin’ to be re-God-damn-diculous…” It’s bad enough that TB revisits the topic of internet plagiarism again and again. But he compounds the monotony with four consecutive days of sputtering Les setting up Owen for an unfunny “punchline”.
Just Not My Type
Yes, Les Moore is the avatar we love to hate, but at least give him credit today for not losing his patience and smacking the living shit out of Owen…minus a few points for referring to Owen’s choice of “typeface” instead of “font”.

…Let’s re-do an old storyline for the next week before we continue with girls BB.
Clearly Pookster peeked ahead (tsk, tsk!) to find that, yes, TB is rehashing revisiting a pet topic of his: students plagiarizing from online sources. This time the offender is Owen. Poor, dumb Owen. In his mind, since he copied from Teh Internets instead of an actual, physical book, well what’s the problem?
Dry Wit
Having squandered his assets (including Maddie’s college fund) on a stupid Tarzan book yesterday, Crazy Harry can no longer afford his customary cup of coffee. But he’s not going to let that stop him from harassing harried waitress Rachel, who is clearly not in the mood.
FW “Blogs” update: TB has updated his Blogs page to announce that he’s “Hitting the Road” in 2012 to flog The Complete Funky Winkerbean, Vol. I. Unlike Les, though, TB’s is limiting his itinerary mostly to Ohio, but he’ll also be hitting Philly, Illinois and Texas. They never come up into the hills…
