Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 08, 2011
Transcript:
Mom: So, Andre wants to do a poster about soil erosion but you want to do a diorama. Are those your only choices? Petey: No, we can also do a poem or a skit or a song. Mom: Why don't you compromise? Do a skit on soil erosion! Petey: Then I could still be friends with Andre? Mom: Of course you could! Petey: I thought I'd have to give up on him and start all over with another friend. Alice: A skit about dirt? Oh boy!

Options! You’ve got options!
And I could see things progressing all the way to opera! The Flying Dirtman!
But with their comic expertise, how come they can’t create a comic book with Superhero Soilman, and his archenemy E-Rosian?

Take a lesson from adults in high places and begin with mud slinging.

I think the skit should involve two guys building a diorama about soil erosion …

Wait till Andre’s Mom convinces him to compromise with Petey by doing a song about soil erosion.
Then they’ll be stuck writing a poem.

They could do a skit about arguing over whether to do a poster or a diorama about soil erosion. It would be like agreeing to have a committee to study whether they should do something.
