Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for December 12, 2010
Transcript:
Danae: ! Yes! Hey, guys...I've just come up with an idea that'll solve a big environmental problem and, even better, make me a billionaire! Lucy: Cool! Kate: Uh-huh...so what is it this time? Danae: Biodegradable water bottles! I just need to figure out what's the least toxic way to make them completely dissolve. Kate: Oh, that's easy. Make them out of something that's water soluble. Danae: Great! Thanks, Kate... Kate: No problemo, sister. Wait for it... Danae: Aargh! Lucy: You're right...the dictionary can be a great source of amusement. Kate: Sometimes it's just too easy...

It’s great when Kate is a little bit evil…

Kate’s solution is quite innovative. Danae only needs to add a time delay to the dissolving process.
Lucy seems out of character.

Don’t give up on your dream, Danae! I’m sure there are plenty of other ways to make a billion dollars.

If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the precipitate.

I think she just needs to drill some holes in the bottle.

How about we just give up bottled water? Biggest scam in the history of the world…

Ah yes, the never-ending search for a container capable of holding the “Universal Solvent”.

@Grog, I used to work for a company where the OFFICIAL motto was, “There are no problems, only opportunities.” Those in the trenches used to talk about “insurmountable opportunities.”

Kate, sometimes you are more devilish than Danae.

Revenge of the nerdly (but beautiful) sister! Love it Wiley, it’s about time that Danae got a come-uppance from Kate. The look on Lucy & Kate’s faces in the sixth panel are priceless.

The pity of bottled water is that it is not available to the masses where it is really needed. Let’s say in Haiti to stop the cholera epidemic.

I love how Danae is a metaphor for humanity’s basic stupidity.
Ironically, someone beat her to the punch on this one. There are biodegradable water bottles using bio-plastics.

Personally, my favorite is instant water. You just add….

kreole, I think it’s just her leg.
annamargaret1866 over 13 years ago
Kind of funky-looking though. But she is a horse, and sitting like that ….

Oooh! Ouch! Danae’s cursing word hurt my ears!

Is Lucy wearing a dress in the last panel?
No, Lucy wasn’t wearing a dress. She has a white long hair tail laying beside her where she sits with Kate on that chair.

And who would be stupid enough to pay 4$ a bottle,,,,Oh never mind they already do.

Water, water everywhere… Plenty to drink, plenty to share… If only we could… Profit to the good… On life’s basic need… And turn it to greed… Who wouldn’t forsake simple want… For the benefit of a select few… Don’t let the wronged easily taunt… That it has to anything do with you…
