Oh thank God we are out of that pizza parlor. Would that we could get away from The Grounded One as well. His star trip on hold for the moment, Les has time for a koffee klatch with his dysfunctionally-married co-workers Linda and Bull Bushka.  Les’ casual greeting to Bull is met with a disjointed string of coachspeak non-sequiturs; it’s like those creepy Bing “search overload” commercials. Having tasted the spotlight after the Scapegoats ended their 20-year football losing streak vs. Big Walnut Tech, Bull wants to be ready for the media swarm that’s sure to accompany the defending state champs of girls’ basketball. He really should just concentrate on sitting at the table without spilling coffee all over himself.

…Lesismoore is simply too in love with his image of himself to share “his” space with anyone else.  Even Zombie Lisa is really just a figment of his imagination and pathological self-absorption…Zombie Lisa, when she appears, is just Les patting himself on the back…

No mentally healthy person is as stuck in the past as this Les is. One can give the friends there the benefit of the doubt, and assume that they do not understand what Les is seeing in his mind’s eye. If they do, they should be carrying out an intervention to help direct him to a way of overcoming his depression.

Please, please let today’s panel 3 spell closure, not only to the “Les Finally Gets Published (Again)” story arc, but to Lisa’s ghostly presence. “Spanky” needs to choose a living, breathing, flesh and blood companion; either that, or let him to join his “favorite girl” in the afterlife. Query whether this is not Les’ sweet reverie, but rather Lisa’s own hell: condemned to spend eternity in Westview, the town that joy forgot.

Even a putz like Les Moore gets tired after awhile of having sunshine blown up his ass. All he wants now is to get out of the pizza joint and back to the office slash garage to start writing Lisa’s Story II: The Other Other Shoe. But his agent slash publicist has got other plans: the organ grinder bids the monkey dance some Mo’.
