Hi all! Um, sorry for the posting gap: My mom is here visiting for a few days and I thought I’d have time to post while we entertained her but it turns out that I haven’t. So, I should have new posts up … starting tonight, or if not, then tomorrow afternoon. Sorry!

While you’re waiting, though, here’s a dilemma for you: What former children’s TV host does Aldo Kelrast most resemble? Discuss.

• Arizona in very hot, especially in August.
• The first two syllables of “Arizona” sound like the word “arid,” which aptly describes the state’s climate.

• It’s embarrassing when your wife catches you looking looking at Internet pornography.
• The Lockhorns’ marriage is a joyless hell.

That’s right, Mary, let the rage and hate flow through you. But wait until he’s actually standing in front of you to unleash that left hook.

I have to admit that this is a pretty stunning layout — I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a comic strip divided up like this before. I don’t know how it would look shrunk down to the size necessary to cram it into a newspaper comics section, but it looks good here. It’s a particularly good fit for the broad vista in the top panel. Too bad it’s all in the service of such a joke so spectacularly lame that I think it’s the product of a joke-generating computer — and not a good one, either. Some of Betty’s butt might have helped.

Shitting. The baby is talking about shitting.
