Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for November 22, 2018

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL TRACY FOLLOWERS EVERYWHERE!

Deacon and Miller.

A scam is in the offing.

Polar is plotting.

Good morning™, harried employees!

Polar looks quite annoyed today. This seems like the point where things start to go wrong for him.

Happy Thanksgiving to all Americans.

Good morning™, aggravated bosses !

So now Polar’s a gofer ?

He isn’t happy, she needs to concentrate on the primary money maker. Sending out marketers to trade money for chemicals so many want. Classic Capitalism. You sell people what they want. A ready market. And with no quality control you don’t know what you are getting. A Libertarian dream, except for it being illegal. They want the (some) Drug War ended too. One thing I do agree with them on.

Today isn’t a Thanksgiving for the First Nations. Maybe if we honor the treaties we can make some amends to it. At least let us break bread together in some kind of harmony. That is what I aim for.

Another phone day, albeit only one panel.

IF Devil contacts the MCU while Papa Polar Bear is going to Starbucks THEN I’ll sing praise to the lads for explaining how an accused accomplice to a kidnapping was allowed to go back to her igloo after booking.

I’m not holding my breath (sorry NG49)

Botched links, Donnie ! :-o

On the first one you needed to leave a space between here: and the beginning of the address, and between html and This at the back end.

Always leave a space before and after a link.

Thanks for those !  I would do the nut butter meal if that was all there is provided it comes with a cold chocolate drink !

ICED coffee, Devil !

Despite the name, Devil doesn’t come across as being so evil, but more of an order-follower.

I hope our victim is still on the line, listening to this exchange…

Coffee with cyanide.

Iced coffee, I presume.

Today is Thanksgiving day in the United States, but the writers have been stuffing this turkey of a story for about five weeks now.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Devil better hope Vortex doesn’t decide to add something “extra” to her coffee.

UH-oh… think Devil’s getting fed-up?

I’m thankful for this, the best comments page in GC. It is impressive how when disagreement happens , instead of the posts deteriorating into mud slings, name calling and childish responses, like in most forums in the net, here everybody is polite and insightful ( with one exception, a few days ago, but that was the first time that person had an unfortunate day). How refreshing!

Also I’m thankful I’m not a turkey today.

Turkey, ham, venison, plenty of choices. And at that fateful meal, no turkey was served. No pies either.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone !

If Vortex is interested in moving forward with the drug business, Tracy and the gang should be on it. In fact, they should have him under surveillance since they know he is pushing drugs and have caught a few of his pushers.

For Piotr, the drug business is primary. The convoluted Pitchblende Trust scheme is secondary.

But now it’s time for a coffee break. Will venturing out lead to trouble for the Vortex?

Had a short day today as the old boy was a bit below par. Being there was good.

Ed was not feeling good today. He did well at lunch, tho’ not cleaning off the plate but enough to be plenty. The lunch was big and one of the ladies and I agree that there is too much food for people who are virtually immobile. He did thank me for wiping food spills off his chin and shirt. He was aware just feeling crappy. I was told he didn’t eat much at breakfast where he usually cleans up. They had him back in bed at 1:30. I was out by about ten to two. Called his boy, who had gone to his in laws for the dinner, before driving off to give my report. I left a pair of announcement posters I made for the upcoming 100th birthday.

In the low 50s when I got home. Still some day left so I did some small chores before going in for the day.

Now for three days we’ll see the coffee-buying process.
