Richard Thompson's Cul de Sac, is a comic strip about the life of a pre-school girl named Alice Otterloop. It is a light-hearted comic strip centered around a four-year old girl and her suburban life experiences on a cul-de-sac with her friends Beni and Dill, older brother Petey and her classmates at Blisshaven Academy pre-school. Alice describes her father's car as a "Honda-Tonka Cuisinart" and talks to the class guinea pig, Mr. Danders. She has the typical older brother who plays jokes on her, and she contemplates ways to keep the scary clown from jumping out of the jack-in-the-box with friends.

My kids have one where tigger jumps out, for some reason they don’t mind it, but the one at class that has a clown freaks them both out!

That’s what clowns do, freak people out.

Listen to Big Brother, Alice. He has much more experience with anxiety, fear, and disappointment.

“Bhub uhb ugk.” “Ugk oop oop.” The most profound statements ever made by a clown anywhere.

At least not until you put a few nails in that coffin.

That “dog-chew” clown will escape on Halloween night, get captured by the “Uh-Oh” baby for trick-or-treating. . .!?

’Ugh, Oop"?

I never gave it much thought before but there are several old school toys that are just insidious. Maybe that was by design. It wasn’t being sent to your room that was the punishment but what was in the room with you….

Beni has fixed it of its horrifying popping out. Looks like he beat the pop out of the Jack in the Box.

I was like that when I was in school until someone explained to me that the clown was in fact our professor and the box was his car in which he drove to work (this was college, btw.)
