Makes sense that a Dad who waits until May of his daughter’s senior year to look at schools should wait until the day after graduation to ask if she’s planning to attend basketball camp. Summer’s following Mom’s pithy advice: she’s about to tell Les of her plans to “follow her heart” and elope with Keisha.

A tip of the Son of Stuck Funky mortarboard to guest blogger David O for letting me have a week off!

…I feel sure a tape from Our Lisa the Howling Succubus is just around the corner for Butch. Graduation? Lis won’t be able to skip graduation.
Sure enough, Ghost Mom recorded a tape for this occasion. Summer dons cap ‘n’ gown (which have magically turned from white to red) and leans in close to listen to her own personal commencement speech as Les lurks nearby to bask in St. Lisa’s heavenly cathode radiance.
A non-turn of events!
A single phone call reveals what a most snarkers and my long-dead grandmother suspected; Summer will be going to Kent State. With most folks a lot more wary of the value of a college education I’m not sure Les should be making his smirk/smug satisfaction face.
In a development that should surprise no one, Summer II got invited to Kent State as well, causing Cayla to break out into her best hatchet-face.
Another day, another new character!
Whoops! Wait, what I thought was a new character is actually just Les in a non-yellow shirt. The effect is rather jarring, like seeing Charlie Brown in a shirt with veritical stripes instead of horizontal ones.
The week is almost over; a little late to be starting a new arc but we’re off and running. To no one’s surprise, (though it’s very, VERY late to be doing so) colleges all over the country are clamoring for the 5’6″ girl who can dunk. Well, one college anyway. Most snarkers already know exactly which college it’s going to be.
I’m guessing it’ll be the college that allows Summer to continue working at Montoni’s part time while living at home and assistant-coaching at the high school after she climbs Mount Killimanjaro and goes on the road with her dad’s book tour.
Comin' up, one side of spatula smack!
Guest blogger DavidO here, filling in as best I can for the very funny TFHackett!
Les looks like he’s just about to set some ground rules with a spatual upside of Cayla’s head, if his tiny flippered arm will let him reach that far. Meanwhile, Keisha’s transformation into a classic Westview Turtle person is almost complete. And, of course, no gathering would be complete without at least mentioning Montoni’s greasy pizza.
