Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for November 11, 2021

On this Thursday 10 years ago, Richard posted a blog entry about a CdS published by the Washington Post in 2006, a year before the strip became syndicated:

Didn’t Laura Ingalls write about that school?

Wow.

Mama always speaks to the crux of the sitch.

Feral kindergartners? Sounds like “Lord of the Flies”!

Also, someone needs to give those librarians a raise so they can afford decent housing (heck a lot of people need a raise to afford decent housing nowadays).

No place for Ernesto to hide.

This is hilarious. I’d be ROTF if I wasn’t presently having to concentrate on not clawing my eyeball out. Cataract removal today, very allergic eyes…..it shall pass.

“Feral kindergartners”. LOL!

Nice straight face, Madeline;)

Wonder what she’s working on with the wrench on the table?

Wondering if “feral kindergartners” is a tautology . . .

There’s a wrench on the table.

So – the cafeteria hadn’t commandeered one for a make-shift smoke house?

Shed reminds me of the one room school I attended. Grades one through eight, total of six students. There was a well outside and a couple of outhouses in the background.

That or dysentery.

Mom always has a wrench by her side ?!?!

Feral kindergartners: only Richard…

Feral kindergartner’s? That explains my granddaughter.

Get with the feral kindergarteners.

Aw man, now those Librarians are out on the street, and who knows what damage displaced feral kindergartners will cause.

Looks like Alice and Dill are pretending to be feral kindergarteners! Maybe Dill’s older brother is in kindergarten?

So refreshing to see that Petey can have an intimate conversation with his mother. Madeline is so clear-headed and understanding of her slightly abnormal son!

Wonder what happened to the librarians and the feral kindergartners.

The feral kindergartners made me laugh out loud! So funny!
