Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 31, 2020

Petey has had bad experiences with pamphlets?

I really don’t see Petey being a summer camp kid, but it might be good for him (just don’t let him read Butterfly Revolution before he goes).

Wow, she really doesn’t know her son.

Petey stuck@ “Pickyeaters Adventere Camp: How to maintain your Pickyeaters status during Puberty”!

“Hallo Muddah, hallo Fadda, here I am at, Camp Granada”…..

Even in your sixties pamphlets are bad news. “Join our hearing seminar” “Forty two things not to eat to save your heart” “Incontinence? Learn to deal with it.”

@ well-i-never But at least they include dinner at a local steakhouse

I thought it was the one about boys and girls-that would have fried Petey completely.

“Hey Petey, I also heard that both Viola & Ernesto will be there as well!”

Mom was sure I would hate it, but I LOVED camp.

Guessing no Camps this summer for kids.

Brother Tony, my high school advisor and Benedictine monk, always took a few pamphlets with him to trade with the Hare Krishnas at the airport.

Is there anything Petey ISN’T afraid of?

It’s for “Camp Introvertawanna.” Each camper gets his own cabin and the activities are staggered so that no more than one person at a time can attend. Meals are severed in the cabins.

It’s just a camp that teaches creative cooking skills; you’ll love it…

When I was of single-digit age, I hated the idea of summer camp. When my parents wanted/offered to send me, I revolted even more vociferously than Petey. In retrospect, I’m not sure why. I think maybe I didn’t trust other kids….
