Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 08, 2013

That was never my fondest desire in life…

And what kid hasn’t said "I’m gonna fix those clowns… "

A responsible clown would get a vasectomy.

i just love this strip the clothing the faces all of it i wish he could resume new ones,…..

Dill understands the difference between a job and a career. Why are clowns?

I’d love to fix a clown so that he’d never bother anyone ever again.

Send in the clowns, Dill!

dont bother, they’er already here…

I thought clowns were supposed to be broken…

If I had a hammer, I’d hammer in the morning, I’d hammer in the evening, All over this clown,

I think everybody knows a clown who needs to be fixed!

If he fixes the clowns, how will they make more?

If we fix all the clowns, there will be none to bother our great grandchildren

(cont)I’d hammer out slapstickI’d hammer out a red noseI’d hammer out greasepaint between my brothers and my sistersAll over this land

Comments funnier than cartoon!

I feel Benis frustration. I actually had one of those squeaky-toy hammers as a prop for a play I was in (a 1930’s German Expressionist play, and no, we didn’t choose it, it was thrust upon us by the theatre faculty). One night things were going just fine (considering it was an Expressionist play) when the head flew off the hammer. The set carpenter glued it back on, but I had to back off on the hammering. It just wasn’t as much fun any more.

Give a Beni a hammer and everything looks like a clown. (Or something like that…)
