Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 19, 2010

You’re cruel, Alice.

Poor Dill……..The mighty have fallen.

Wait, Dill! I want to hear it!

my old high school teacher built a giant grocery cart for a Christmas parade a few years back. Dill would have freaked.

Oh, Alice! How can you be so cold to eager, bumbling little Dill? He thinks of you as his friend!

Every time I fill my grocery cart with dinosaurs they make me put them back!

Awrr! Shiver me timbers. A grocery cart is not ship for a bloody pirate. It’ll tip over when you walk the plank, and who ever heard of being wheel hauled. Turn right next aisle, bottles of rum.

Alice, it’s what’s in the cart that counts!

One of these days Alice……POW! Straight to the moon!

Tread softly, because you tread upon his dreams…

Alice! And it’s “Talk like a Pirate Day” too!

I can think of nothing cooler than being a pirate in a grocery cart filled with dinosaurs. Well dreamed Dill, well dreamed.

OH Dill! I think your dream is FABULOUS!! Cruel, Alice~

Is the ALICE< ALICE< ALICE of a excited Dill the Dillonian equiviilent of PANGO PANGO PANGO lin?

I’m with you, Alice.

Doc, I am sure you have plenty of dinosaurs, but they are often dressed in pants pulled up to their chest, act grumpy, complain a lot about the prices and talk about how things were back in their day.

Thompson is always brilliant.

I have similar dreams but its usually on meatloaf nights.

apparently dill has dreams about giant grocery carts a lot.

Oh, Alice, How can you rain on Dill’s parade so cruely?! I want to hear Dil’s dream.

This dream was similar to how I felt the first time I went to Costco.

September 19 is, of course, International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Yarr!

I liked it too, Dill!

I love how when Dill is excited, RT draws his hair so illuminated.

“Is the dream about me?”“N-”“DON’T CARE!!!”
