Great, just what the library board needs, a complete jerk who doesn’t know squat about the library and has an axe to grind… Seems we’ve got too many folk like this running for office as it is.
Characters Held Hostage: CK hasn’t appeared since March 26 (as part of group shot while Vic drives by). So that makes it 32 days. If there’s ever a softball story, we may see her again, but she’s been a mainstay for so long, I decided to give her countdown status.
P1 – The forest has eyes! P2- artist like the jewelry now with the hands; lots of wristwear evident; P3 The mistress lays down the hammer ( fickle finger of fate)
Vito from Goshen has Abe as a strong contender already on the big board. Vito plans to fund the campaign as a way to get video betting and poker on the library computers. Odds and numbers are math, kids!
After blowing up a perfectly nice dinner, Abel Brito has been presented with a choice: either he drops the subject of libraries, or he works to join the library board and implement his vision of transforming money-losing libraries via a public-private partnership into profitable Amazon Reading Centers™ that are free to enter for all Prime subscribers.
I thought color would make it easier to identify characters but I also thought they would color them the same every day! Don’t they give them instructions?
Hoo boy. Mom has rapid changing hair color disease, must have caught it from Doug. She originally was blonde (bright yellow), then at the start of this dinner she was a brunette, now at the end of dinner she’s a blonde again, except now it’s almost kind of a peach color. And she provides us with our weekly quota of finger pointing. Although it looks to me like her index finger was replaced with a thumb.
And speaking of replacing, replace your boredom with the regular comics with the excitement of reading Mopped Up Thorp.

Yeah, how many people haven’t been thinking for a few days now that Brito’s going to run for that post, and Zane’s going to run against him?

P2- Barely Able looks like he ate his meat. Can he have any pudding? All in all, it’s just another Burrito in the wall.

P1, It’s usually the girl who says that. Zane really is insane.
P2, And she’s blond again.
P3, Mr. Brito will be (un)Able to get any tonight.
