   As it was and ever shall be, as long as there are people.

   Not to worry. The lagoon isn’t a freshwater location. Rupert is doomed.

   “you are just an expletive to them.”

   And vice versa, for a lot of us.

   I imagine he believes he has surpassed being accountable to anyone or anything. No one is above him. No boss. He and his fellow “justices” are at the top. For life. Untouchable.

   Best strip so far this year! I hope I didn’t wake anyone else in the house just now, laughing my head off, plus all the snorting while trying in vain to stifle the laughing.

   Oh, fiddle—now I’ve got hiccups!

   For Peter it won’t even be multiple choice—multiple guess, yes.

   I remember laughing when I read this one years ago. But this time I noticed the writing on the apron! The perfect name for this fine-dining restaurant! ::snerk::

   Not exactly. Think of a single square of double-ply toilet paper. That square can be easily separated into two squares. You take one square and gently pull the two layers apart from each other. But single-ply toilet paper has no separable layers to pull apart. It has only one layer—one single ply—to start with.

   Think of chicken breasts. You can cut one in half horizontally as it lies flat on a cutting board. You end up with two cutlets, each half as thick as the whole breast was, but each taking up the same space on the board as the original piece. That can be done when you start with something as thick as a half chicken breast. I don’t know how a single piece of paper can be halved that way.

   To satisfy the Very Bad Man’s demand, poor Rudy must figure out how to do that impossible thing, without detaching any square from any other square. Then he has to actually do it. Lastly, he has to reroll each loose long length of now-half-as-thick toilet paper onto a cardboard tube. There would then be two rolls of toilet paper, each roll with each square still attached to the next square. The entire length of paper on each resulting half-ply roll would be the same length and width as that on the previous one-ply roll, but only half as thick.

   Love Kristi’s companion, the ambulatory armed-and-legged teeth, like Mr. Two Bulls’ rendition of tfg’s traveling Trumped-up hair!

    I am not convinced she wrote that book, or even gave it much of a read before it was published. She responded to a question put to her about that very thing on “Face the Nation” by saying “when it was called to my attention” she went back and made some changes.
