Kara will see now, that because of her delegating the responsibility of the Caber Toss to Donny, she wins.
It’s not necessarily true, but she will see it now.

Microphones, left on, and left on stage.
These things happen.
I don’t know what you guys think, but I think that ‘down range’ can change pretty darn quick during the Unicycle Archery competition.
One stiff breeze and a sneeze, and somebody could have an arrow inconveniently installed.
Crowd behavior. There’s probably a university degree you can get in that.
Exhausted disinterest. That’s what you get when you take a university degree in Crowd Behavior.
So, if you see a face in the crowd that you think doesn’t look like you, but looks like it should look like you… just assume it’s you. I’m not taking an hour per face to make sure everyone looks like their photo. The photos might not look like the way you think you look, either, so relax and just show everyone “Hey, This is me in this cartoon!” They won’t believe you, but you know better.
From the beginning, I wanted Hubriscomics to be kid-friendly… y’know, no nudity (I’d probably have more readership if I was one of those webcomics that put the girlies in bikinis every so often, but I just ain’t feelin’ it.) and no swearing, no drug humor… not as strictly as a newspaper would enforce things- I just had something different in mind. And then there’s the temptation to make a point with swearing, and I’ve avoided that, too. Too easy, really. But it does lead to some fairly juvenile vocabulary now and again. Today’s strip is a good example- “Midnight Urines” is funny to me. Partly because I grew up in a place where stilted euphemisms were occasionally pretty artful, and so I find them entertaining, and partly because I have fun picking through words I can use to see what sounds funny. Paste using the term ‘Wee’ for dog puddles (or unicorn puddles, if you’ve been reading for THAT long) tickles me. In my head, Durnell’s rural speaking voice is really funny when he’s trying to be a Southern Gentleman and avoid the use of the word ‘piss’. He doesn’t want to be that vulgar, so what he comes up with, while not exactly vulgar, is stilted enough to have it’s own goofy charm. I hope you agree… and that you hear something like Jeff Foxworthy’s accent while reading Durnell’s speech balloons.
