    I never thought I’d think of the words “lucky” and “nose hair” in the same sentence.

    Even though this is a new cartoon, the idea for a nosehair snow globe has been sitting in my idea file a while. Ed Asner was the original owner of those nosehairs, but I’ve changed my ways since then. In FA, the only celebs I want to promote are other cartoonists or other comic strip characters. I might make an occasional reference to someone on the outside (ie Steven Seagal’s cutoff ponytail stalking people), but for the most part… I want to celebrate the world of cartoons and their creators, not Hollywood or “brangelina”.

    Do not talk bad about brangelina…
    …who else(whom else?) can afford a celebrity nose hair globe.wndrwrthg is right on track..maybe Snuffy Smith,too.What about Lon/Dick Cheneny Jr.?

    Ooooh….and I guess we’re lucky that we’re talking lucky ‘nose’ hair snow globes….

    …they make them cheaply in the far east..you never know what kind of hairs you might really be getting…

    I’d imagine there is a Doozie nosehair, but I am really hoping you have one of Yenny”s. The little girl in the strip reminds me of a comic strip character from a 1950’s strip that I used to read when I was a kid; Brenda Worth or Apt. 3G. Teresa, did you model her after after a strip in comic heaven?

    I hope you yanked several nosehairs from Mona’s nose in C’est la Vie.

    Can someone explain Frazz to me? It’s about a school janitor who hangs out with the kids? I tell my children if the school janitor tries to talk to them, keep walking!

    Nosehair snow globe? It’ll go great with my armpit magic 8-ball.

    Shouldnt ‘snowglobe’ be one word?

    Teresa, what’s the correct answer?

  21. frogapplause

    frogapplauseGenius_badge said, 11 months ago

    marguerite, dearest: You alone get to decide the seven nosehairs. Peruse the guesses by other readers, including your own, and create an answer key. I’ll back your decision 100%.

    I’m not sure I can handle this weighty responsibility but here goes:


    1. Jerry from The Dinnette Set

    2. Jerry’s Mom from The Dinette Set

    3. Adam @ Home

    4. The Spook, Wizard of Id

    5. Snuffy Smith

    6. Hagar the Horrible

    7. Mona from C’est La Vie.

    Their nose hairs are especially lucky, and make fine snow globes.

    wndrwrthg says: Mark Slackmyer

    Having watched ‘Queer Eye for the Straight Guy’, I know that nose hair is never ever acceptable, so Mark would keep his well trimmed.
