It's Called Recycling

Today’s lesson from the Cartoonist’s Studio: how to turn one unfunny gag into two!

Panel 1:
Les admonishes Owen and tells him what he has done wrong.

Panel 2:
Owen fails to comprehend the situation.

Panel 3:
Owen offers a lame and unfunny explanation while Les makes a face.

Seriously, Mr. Batiuk? Seriously? Groundhog Day isn’t ’til tomorrow, dude.

…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…

I'm an Ape Man, I'm an Ape Ape Man, Oh I'm an Ape Man

After an almost solid month of girls’ hoops “action”, it’s something of a relief to get back to “Krazy’s Kwest for Komix”. It’s also a relief to note that Harry is not his postal uniform, which means he’s loitering on his own time for a change. It only took him four months of “nosing around“, but John’s finally located the rare volume that Harry needs to complete his Tarzan collection (I thought that Harry had already found it on his own). It took me five minutes to find it on Amazon.

You Complete Me

Ha ha ha! Bull asks his new assistant coach if she can “shift her schedule around” after he’s given her the job. Sure hope she’s able to reschedule her cookie baking and quilting bee, and maybe DVR those episodes of Law and Order.

This woman who he had no idea existed is being subjected to more affection and intimate touches than Bull has shown, well, ANYONE for the past couple of years…If I didn’t know better, I’d say Tom was planting seeds for an adultery arc.

I think that John is (*shudder*) on to something here. Added bonus of that scenario would be that it would free up Linda to finally make her move on Westview’s alpha stud, Les!
