          If it’s female, now that it is flying, it’s so close to be Carême Prenant
          Let’s mustard fly!

        Is that what they’re calling it these days?

      Running the theatre is much like running a war, but with occasionally less violence.

        The main difference is that theatre uses a lot more fake blood than war does.

    We have met the enemy, and we know where.

    And this is why commas are important. You don’t want to confuse the dragons providing suppressing fire with the plants who are suppressing fire dragons.

    Isn’t anybody going to mention that Kay and her significant other Roger are back? Roger must have taught Kay how to flamethrow…

    As it turned out, the downfall of the Biomass was the super-trichinosis the genetically engineered pig was designed to be a carrier for.

    It’s beginning to look a little hopeless
    Everywhere, you know.
    Take a look at the Biomass, our fighters it does outclass,
    Though with good aims of dragon flames that glow.

    It’s beginning to look a little hopeless,
    Calling for retreat.
    And our ultimate fate will be is the ending we all see,
    With final defeat.

    A raging sentient swamp on a terrible romp
    Is the fear of Sweetheart and Pig.
    Though Annex One talks and then can go for a walk,
    Doesn’t look enough for this gig.
    Are Lee and Nick about to use the Whirligig?

    It’s beginning to look a little hopeless,
    Everywhere, you know.
    There’s Tip and his master plan, to get as much as he can,
    And be the bureaucrat generalissimo.

    It’s beginning to look a little hopeless,
    Assimilating soon.
    And the thing that’ll take the ring is that veggie tiger thing,
    It’s inopportune.

    It’s beginning to look a little hopeless,
    Calling for retreat.
    And our ultimate fate will be is the ending we all see,
    With final defeat.

    Sure, it’s hopeless, to beat.

    —from “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas,” written by Meredith Willson, sung by Perry Como and the Fontaine Sisters (though Johnny Mathis did a version that’s more popular lately.)

    I have to applaud panel 1 – it would make a great poster for the movie version!

    Retreating is Pig’s only plan. They must run in retreat while they can. Their hand might be upper, but they might become supper for the Biomass big boogeyman.

    Should’a also mention I got the Skin-Horse calendar today. And to think I nearly didn’t go down to the post office this morning. Merry Christmas, all.
