Watch Me Pull A Comic Strip Out of My Ass! (Not Again...)
Man, this guy's so preachy. He should find himself a profession where preaching is considered a job requirement, something like Hamburgler or cockswain. And from his cox box at the stern of his dirigible-boat hybrid, like a mister knowitall with a degree from Whatsamatta U., he can remind us of all the things that happened on June 22 throughout history.
He can tell us about last year, when it was reported that former U.S. ambassador to South Korea Donald Gregg and former journalist Don Oberdorfer stated that George W. Bush in 2002 turned down an offer from North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il to discuss the issue of nuclear weapons. Or he can tell us that on this date in 1957, Garry Gary Beers was born, and that under the astrological sign of Cancer he has an extremely powerful imagination(& perhaps he should enter the comic strip racket.) And before the helium in the balloon makes the sound of his voice the only hilarious thing he's got to offer, he can remind us that back in 1912, a great deal of Republicans who were upset with the inadequacies and incompetence of their man in the Oval Office decided to branch off and form the Bull Moose Party.
There is a song I sing, however, that gives me hope that this strip isn't alive for me to kick around next June 22:
Remember, Dios and Kevins,
The time will come soon, it will be time
When we beat your lousy strip
And you will remember us.

P.S...wow, "Prickly City" must be the first comic-strip to use product placements...

So... that whole thing with Chertoff earlier was just an excuse to draw more blimps?
And remember all, liberals love big business.

I imagine a handful of readers of Prickly City are muttering, "Consarnit. Whens did they change the name of this strip from 'PC' to 'Wal-Mart'? I only knows what the blimp shows."
At any rate, top-notch work, Sacki. Don't you owe Marc a call, though? (It's free when you dial from work.)

So is Stantis equating WalMart with Osama?

Is it free for Sacki to call Japan from work? Does he work at the United Nations? Oh, please, let at least one member of the Shrubville team work at the United Nations!
