I grew up having to hear the music from ‘Annie’. You know the song… and you, like me and my friends, probably made up spoof lyrics… Sing with me: “Theeeee Sun’ll Blow Up Tomorrow! Bet your bottom dollar there’ll be Chaos… and Sorrowwwww! Tomorrow, Tomorrow, I fear ya, Tomorrow- You’re onlyyyyy a day awaaaaaay!”
Just me, huh?
Today’s cartoon should have a few of you saying “AH! I Knew it!!”, and hopefully, more of you saying “Oh, I see where this is going…”
And if I’m doing my job… You’ll get to keep on saying that.
I should do a storyline about allergies.
Apparently, I’m doing some research into one now.
Typically at the end of February, I get sneezy and wheezy and blockheaded.
This year, with the weird warm snap around here, it’s all started up early.
I wonder how Kelly would edit video while full of allergy medicine?
Moody. That’s the word for it, right? Moooooody.
Or, if you’re a painting student, “monochromatic”…
Or, if you’re a cartoonist, “Really Purple” or “Lazy”
Don’tcha hate that- holding out a hand to shake, and then to be left hanging?
Irritating.
Oh, and being talked over and presumed to be part of someone else’s machinations?
Oh, so irritating.
Oh, those rich guys with their martinis and their steam rooms… Oh, how I long to be part of their expensive Trump-like world. Except I’d have the cigar, too. And a monocle. Dunno about the top hat.
Why throw mere strikes when you can throw curveballs, right? Lowell is the man with something that looks suspiciously like a plan… except there’s no way he could have planned for it.
Lowell. Admit it. You like the stories he’s in.
…
I can fix that, you know.
Turning up the heat a bit at Sportsmart…
Hope nobody minds the stories jumping back and forth. There’s probably some literary term for it amongst ‘real’ writers. I call it “jumping the stories back and forth to make everyone wonder what the heck’s going on.”
It makes the writing and pacing harder to do, but you guys are worth it.
