Snark It Up, FuzzBall!

Randy, old Parker’s son, and his ex-wife, newly released from prison, meet once again. As you might guess, things are a little tense…

Meanwhile, it looks like Sam and Abby are getting back together…at lease for a weekend of cheap, meaningless sex. And wouldn’t you know it…an ACCIDENT!!!

Could be an insurance adjuster…could be an animal trainer…

Abbey and Sam have been through so much IN A DAY!!! Why does it seem like years?!??

In the continuing puzzle that is Judge Parker, all you really need to know is… OHMYGOD OHMYGOD OHMYGOD!!!!!

In an alternate universe (read, anywhere but where Judge Parker and his cronies hang out), cicadas are noisy but harmless little insects, spending most of their 17 years of life underground! Who fed you that crap that cicadas were blood-suckers?!??

Meanwhile, let’s return to a more peaceful and sensual scene…

….Estelle (soon to be Stell) and Ed strolling off into the sunset? Libby and Odin having big plans (big, nefarious plans) for Pierre? How can we possibly wait until tomorrow?!??

And just in time…a new story!!

And now: THE STRIP THAT JUMPED THE SHARK (even without Mary riding it)!!!

Of course, Dr. Ed may have a plan that will guarantee a comfortable living for himself and Estelle

WITHOUT having to be a harried veterinarian:

And for all those (and there were a lot) who poo-pooed yesterday’s animal antics:

If you look hard enough, you can still ferret out the snark…

Anyway, things look like they’re improving…

And I’ll bet Mary didn’t sleep a wink last night…

A couple of older minor characters, Hank and Yvonne, have gotten married and are now on an ocean honeymoon. BUT a longtime baddie, Rene the Swindler, is also on board and would take everyone for a ride, if it weren’t for hin recognizing Hank (and knowing Hank would take him to justice).
[Gads, isn’t that a lot of words just for a cheap snark? I wouldn’t have said anything. BUT it’s on a cruise! At NIGHT! And BAD THINGS can happen at night on a cruise! Just ask Mary Worth (Rex Morgan is nowhere to be seen…)]

An astonishing disguise!

Do something! He’s getting away!

With all these “accidents,” bear in mind there are Those People who are called to the sea…a siren’s song that makes them go willingly, like a salmon returning to the natal creek of its birth, or a sea tortoise, swimming thousands of miles around the world, only to return and lay eggs where her own mother dumped her load years before…

The dude in the bow-tie? Who cares? He only wants to detract from the true lure of the ocean,,,the mantra of the mermaid…what a maroon! Who needs cheap chicanery when Those People long to be full fathoms deep (around July 2012)…

Mud Mountain (aka Fergus) can be touchy-feely, New Agey of Aquarius, or Zen all that he wants, but Yvonne is a little more pragmatic of the tragedy that could be unfolding on the high seas…

So Rene is unmasked, but does he regret his villainous ways? Maybe he should just relocate…

Meanwhile, there’s a high school graduation going on…with future plans and everything!

Return with us now to those thrilling days of Middle Earth, or at least to someone who looks kinda like a resident….

“Oooooh…the OTHER compensation….”

Ye gods!!!!

I *think* this is the first time I’ve ever snarked on Blondie.

I’m not snarking on Daddy Daze…I just like the franchising opportunity!

Monday, and ready to work!

So far, so good…

But wait! The clinic isn’t closed yet!!!

And I have to admit that I’ve not written off old Wilbutt yet…
