I do not believe it - Flo is actually resisting! It won’t last, someone will buy him his drink.

Maybe the price of a drink has gone up two to yarns.
pearlandpeach over 14 years ago
first liar never has a chance. But the story deserves at least a listen -
maybe a visitor will buy the Captain a cup.

never let the truth get in the way of telling a good story….

Who are you trying to kid. Cap’t Eddie stopping in the middle of a story. Why a Narh-Eastah couldn’t shut him up now.

I still think Homer is involved somehow…
eric stott over 14 years ago
Homer? Dear God No!- I’d rather suffer through more Basil.

If I was at Flo’s, I’d buy Cap’n Eddie that drink. But then of course, strategically excuse myself before the story continued.

Hah! A sea captain’s cat named Pauly! As in Pauly (A)shore!
I’d buy Cap’n Eddie a drink too - .

Wiley sure knows how to weave stories. I’m betting he does it for free drinks too.

Thank you, celecca, but it’s just 10 years with Universal and Uclick. On Feb. 16th, it will be 18 years of Non Sequitur.
kirbey over 14 years ago
Whatever day you really started I’m just glad you did … Thanks so much for some great laughs. : )
celeconecca over 14 years ago
@WIley 18 years? And I missed the first eight. Ah well…. as my great-grandmother said, “I know I’m not dead yet, because I learned something today!”
napaeric over 14 years ago
Best, most imaginative story telling in cartoons since Pogo and L’il Abner. And you may end up topping even that. Thanks for the stories and the memories.
From Napa to you.

Cap’n Eddie always makes up a nonsense stories. Believe him or not? (scoffs!)
Trebor39 over 14 years ago
Cap’n Eddie lives in an alternate reality where his stories are all true.
MatureCanadian over 14 years ago
Yes Wiley, it is always the ahts that suffer first in a recession. Too bad they also suffer last and always!
I agree with napaeric. Thanks for the fun.

“The arts suffer most in a bad economy.”
That explains the shows on NBC!

I love both Pauly and Lucy, but I must have missed something somewhere…whatever happened to Kate’s dog and what was his name?

Any Sunday with a Cap’n Eddie story is a great Sunday. Set ‘em up Flo, I’m buying. … and the dog’s name is Petey. Still around when he want’s to be, as far as I know.
Joseph Krois over 14 years ago
“The Arts?” How ‘bout lying…Oh wait, that’s bigger than ever…
