Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 11, 2020

What a powerful clapping stance in that last panel. I’d be scared too.

Petey so wants no sororal embarrassment (in the concert or in his social life)

It’s very unmanly to be bullied by your little sister…

Petey doesn’t realize it, but living with Alice is going to give him fierce skills dealing with difficult people ><

My sense of rhythm is so bad, the church choir asked me to stop clapping with the music: I was throwing everyone off.

Clapping Alice is a scary thing if you’re a sensitive musician/big brother like Petey! I’d shout for Mommy, too!

If you’re going to do something, do it with passion. And a very serious face.

If your happy and you know it, clap your hands.

Can’t you just wait for the lights to go down and wave your cell phone in the air?

Oh Alice, you are always blowing me away with the rhythm of your odd little drum.

Whatever you do, don’t give Alice a set of cymbals!

Interesting picture, a “Happy Little Snowman” with the clap…
