Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for June 15, 2013

Frank has no eyes!

Name That Car — bucket seats up front but no console between them!

Franks glasses are steamed up from all the “romantic banter”

I can’t believe Frank could actually think, Luann really would drive into oncoming traffic.

WHERE Is Tiffany and WHAT is Her “Plan”??

That Gal better Shift things into High Gear REAL Quick if She wants to BREAK Up THIS Little “Love-Fest”.

Tiff MIGHT want to consider Enlisting the Aid of Her Pal Elwood on THIS one. The Guy’s got the MEANS, MOTIVATION, and the Resources for a bit of Revenge.

I Mean Old ’El asked Lu to Marry Him once. Even gave Her a “Ring” kinda, only to have His time BEATEN by Mr. Perfect, here.

Besides, it would interesting to SEE how Mr. Oz handles Himself during a Conflict.

“I wonder if Frank was this much fun when he was dating Nancy.”^Probably so… then life drove him crazy…

♪ …“Whose gonna drive you home…..Tonight?”…♫

Sponsored by…Okayyear…. when Dad is riding so much on your tires…and by….Grate Farm Insurance… ensuring that you drive correctly…. hey! It’s OUR insurance….

Some interesting info from Wikipedia, including how the United States’ history, how we ended up switching originally from the left to the right side of the road over the course of time…==Interesting fact…. not only have some countries changed from left to right driving (for various reasons), but there are countries that neighbor each other who have differing lanes (left vs. right)… for those countries who share borders and yet use different lanes, Wikipedia actually shows pictures of the “cloverleaf” and other various interchange ramps used to change vehicles from right lane to left lane, when crossing their borders…. =And Seattle is one of a handful of places where there is a “temporary” left handed driving lane on various roads, before returning back to “right handed lanes”….

Even letting Luanne drive. Why is the FATHER in the back seat? When I drove and my parents were with me, one of them got shotgun unless one of THEIR parents were there. No matter who else was in the car.

“Why is the FATHER in the back seat?”^As Sly and his Family sang: “♫ ..Different strokes… for different folks…♫”

Or as Alan Thicke sang: " ♪Cos it takes… different strokes to move the world, yes it does, it takes… different strokes to move the woooooorld….mmm♫"

Luann:I’d drive into oncoming traffic for you, but we might have trouble making out with multiple broken limbs…

You know… the movie would have been “Driving Miss Lazy”… but they didn’t feel like putting the steering wheel in the back seat… and the original actress didn’t bother to show up….

“I thought it was “Driving Miss Crazy”^No, that one got canned…. the budget was larger than the U.S. debt ceiling… plus, they ran out of stunt vehicles, and the actors/actresses weren’t done with their probation and community service….

Frank probably is in the back seat because he was afraid to leave Quill and his daughter alone back there while he drove. Hence, he allows Luann to drive (keeping her hands on the wheel and her eyes on the road!) while he keeps an eye on Quill and her….

Frank’s no eyes look is creepy…..why wouldn’t Frank drive?

Just what I was thinking!

Logic and safety would dictate that Frank drive while Luann and Quill sit in the back.

IamJayBluE: You mean those unexpected left lane exits on I-5?

Waymint…. Y all the hubbub about Frank driving? As I was quipping earlier, “different strokes”…. Sure, in our vehicle (my wife and I), we monopolize the front seats (unless there was a circumstance where it was easier for someone who needed to, like someone with physical needs or limitations), but what IF it was LUANN"S vehicle? (even though she may not pay the insurance)…==But there are other drawbacks to Frank’s driving… his constantly monitoring Quill and Luann’s activities in the back from his rear view all the time (he’d be more distracted than he’s labeling Lu as), also there is the fact that Lu would be grousing if she or Quill sat in the front seat without spending QT next to their “loveydovey”… the there’s the possibility that it could be LUANN’S vehicle (unless hers is still the red one), but all the same, Frank is being considerate of letting the “Jr. Lovebirds” have said QT and he has no need to monopolize, nor may he even FEEL like driving….

OH I’m sure that Greg has Tiff waiting in the wings to raise a ruckus in Luann’s head. Can hardly wait!

Loved that one, too!!!! They were also FUNNY on the ONE episode I actually enjoyed on MTV cribs (shudder!!!!)…==(“♫…whatever tomor-row brings, I’ll be there, with open arms and open eyes, yeaaah…♫”)

To be honest, there are virtually NO Cars songs that are bad…. if you’ve gotten a chance to snag their newest album, I suggest doing so… they did NOT sell out!!! Just sad that there’s no Ben Orr ==Loved the fact that they released it on vinyl, CD, AND they even included a free mp3 download, that you can re-download again…==Quick fact: David Byrne, Ric Ocasek, David Hasselhoff, John Astin? Baltimore bred (my hometown), along with us sharing Joan Jett with Philly….

Did I just read the comments that I think I read?Don’t you folks know that smoking that stuff will warp your sense of humor?

Please Mr Evans . . . . Pay no attention to what is going on here in the comments. Stay focused on the road and Luann’s driving. My sources tell me that Tiffany is following right behind them.

It will be fun to see if they double date with Brad

Killing two birds with one stone

What could be more romantic than saying you would die for your love?

Please no accidenrts…and the fire department arrives at the accident scene…that would be too heavy duty for a comic strip. Luann watch the road!

I think all you people who are wondering why Frank isn’t driving are missing the point. He’s not driving because HE HAS NO EYES.:^)

Oh, Frank, you’re more distracting to Luann…my dad was like that too. He’d shout about something, I’d hit the brake and he’d yell at me about my “depth perception”…which I knew NOTHING about at the time.

@Evol Jenius – Ha ha ha! Your comment made my day:)

I hope Monday’s strip or any 1 of next week’s strips will have a panel that’ll have Luann’s foot step on a pedal wearing either sandals or flip flops.

I have a feeling this was targeting those of you who take romantic banter as reality.

I guess they disowned Jessica Simpson? Ha ha!

In what insane world would this tripe be considered ‘romantic banner’?!Beggin’ ya, Greg, for the love of mercy – please finish this awful storyline quickly and move on.

I love Luann!!! You go girl!!!

I luv Luann!!! You go girl!!!

Right there, Gaunt and Doc, My X used to make that kind of threats all the time (but he chose to try to give pain all the time). He also was usually drinking (as was I) and drove very erratically (but I had not even learned to drive at the time (not until after my divorce). Does not sound romantic OR funny. (but he had no reason to drive that way such as being from across the pond). He actually seemed nice before we married. I detest all forms of violence (but he died back the same year as my dad).

“Not in suicide. That is just plain mentally ill.”-Nah, sometimes suicide makes perfect sense. Throwing yourself on a grenade to save your comrades when not doing so would have just killed all of you. Oh sure, you could throw somebody else on it and sit on him until it goes off, but then the shame might make you suicidal, better to get it over with to start with.-

Going off to war to protect those you love can easily be considered suicidal. Going into a burning building to rescue others. And the old standby: duels.-

I ain’t a gonna do it, but there are cultures which practically DEMAND it.-

And illness is just whatever doctors devine as illness. There are many conditions nowadays which were once considered mental illnesses.-

And there is the fact that she was joking, even though that is incomprehensible to those without a working sense of humor.

One other thing. Luann is too young to be able to imagine herself being dead, so suicidal actions aren’t the same as suicidal thoughts./And the traffic might have been light..We had a drunk lady driving the wrong way on a four lane highway, went over ten miles without killing herself or others.Police should have shot her as she drove, but they are too kindhearted for public safety’s sake.

And by their driving vs. US driving, I meant Aust. and US….

Don’t know what happened to the comment, but I was pointing out that Luann was being sarcastic, joking, as she was comparing Australian driving to US driving, and this is a point of inside info coming out, as the Evanses had spent some time living in Australia….

That’s it! In the trunk with you!
