    I, Augustín, want a cell phone. [No! You’re not big, just an eight-year-old child on top of a cat with high-heels!] I, Gaturro, want a cell phone. (At least that’s how I think “a babucha” means; I don’t know very many Argentine colloquiums.)

    GATURRO: I agree with Templo that “babucha” is a challenge and probably a colloquium. I think the gist is

    Augustin: I want a cell phone.

    Gordo: No, you’re only 8 years old, and being on top of a cat with crazy shoes doesn’t count.

    (they switch places)

    Gaturro: I want a cell phone.

    PHANTOM: Burley is awake and face-to-face with his “myth.” But I think he is under the influence of Guran’s potion…will he remember this as a dream? Or will he completely forget he ever heard of a myth known as the Phantom?

    MARK TRAIL: I wonder how things are going to come together in this new adventure (Wolves, Johnny Lone Elk, Chris from Africa). In the meantime, we have some lovely nature scenes…like today’s second panel.

    Gaturro – I didn’t know that “tacos” could refer to shoes.

    Mandrake – Derek will wind up giving himself away with slips like that.

    Mark Trail – How is this story of lone wolves going to tie into the Africa story?

    Phantom – This is a great story! I’m really enjoying it!

    Crankshaft – Man! That is one steep hill!

    MANDRAKE: @ david – I give the artist credit for drawing identical twins in such a way that we always know who’s who.

    PHANTOM: @ david – I agree! But I must admit I miss woodworker’s commentary re the P. strip…especially with such an intriguing story and a lot of commentary at CK that P. has gone “out of character.”

    Mandrake – I agree with David. That was a big slip-up. Shouldn’t take Narda long to figure it out. @Florchi, personality really effects looks, doesn’t it? Derek can’t fake that.

    Rex Morgan – I thought they were just filling space and killing time, but the effect on Sarah of visiting their old house could be interesting. Could be upsetting, or helpful.

    Gaturro My translator says “babuchas” means slippers and “tacos” can mean heel. That would make the sentence “You are only a boy of 8 years with slippers of the cat with heels.” Awkward, but it makes a bit of sense with the picture.
