    Natalie, to find the volume of your brain, stick your head in a bucket of water.

    And see how much water is displaced.

    Silly me…. I didn’t know bagpipes signaled the need to … you know…

    “go outside.”

    I suppose it should have been obvious, what with that big full bag…..

    in fact, isn’t (or wasn’t?) it traditionally made from a sheep’s bladder?

     

    Now I’m starting to wonder what some other traditional signals might be….

    Like… what would Clo have to display to demonstrate “I’m hungry?”

    And would it work for me, too…or only for dogs?

     

    And what does it mean when Cleo is pointing a bazooka?

    Cos I’ve always thought it meant simply “RUN!!!”

    But that’s what her flamethrower means…. so maybe the bazooka has its own interpretation.

     

    Oh… and x_Tech….

    ALL the way or only the top?

     

    And Dennis…. is that the couch eater?

    @Susan

    I believe there is (was) a Scottish tradition of piping in the new day on the bagpipes.

    How do you sleep thru a 4A, double exclamation pointed, multicolored, all uppercase, oversized BRAAAAP!!?

    Hint: Clara sleeps with the fishes (in this case Landshark Lager)

    P.S. My favorite part was the indotherms above the pipes.

    THIS JUST IN FROM THE GOCOMICS’ NEWSROOM!

    yesterday’s award to Cleo and Company has been rescinded due to a temporary gaining of our senses—— : what the heck were we thinking?

    the Sherpanator groanie award as been rerouted to Eric the Circle, which produces groans even more than kazoo tuners ( the ones that tune those out of tune kazoos).

    after all, it’s rare that you find ANYbody that groans more that kazoo tuners, especially when they get their weekly kazoo tuning compensations.

    Do you suppose Chuck from today’s Ballard Street was inspired by Cleo? She’s being pretty intense today herself!

    Friends and Fellow Cleotians." Wow. STILL THE BELL puns badly, wins the award and objects because “it’s too soon.” Then NIGHTHAWKS wins and deflects by noting that NonSherpans pun badly too. SMH. 

    You are both unworthy. But you’re also the only game in town. So keep on punning poorly, and I’ll keep on awarding goodly. Or something.

    I LOVE bagpipes! Cleo can come on over and tootle anytime. (except she has to keep her real tootling outside).

    (Maybe I just love those Scottish GUYS in their kilts)…..think Mel Gibson in Braveheart!
