Mary Worth 1,625

Mary's desire to travel and see the country is contagious. I'd like to do the same thing. Maybe this will satisfy my wanderlust...

You're welcome.

In the endlessly swirling worthiverse, Mary has a change of perspective in every panel. What more does she need?

KitKat said...

Thanks for the film clip, Wanders. I started to picture Mary and Toby as Kermit and Fozzie, but thought better of it.

Apparently Mary is abandoning both the Mountview Hospital Volunteer Corps and "Ask Wendy." And, what about Dr. Jeff? Tomorrow we'll see Mary at her peculiar pc with the oversized monitor, trawling the Internets for Senior Singles excursions. A whole new world of meddling awaits.

Good golly, doesn't Toby live an exciting life?

How about a nice cruise, Mary? I hear the Italian Costa line is quite luxurious. Or go back to New York to visit Bobby and Gina (uninvited). Then again, there's always that prepaid honeymoon to Bora Bora that Adrian and (Scott?) never took. The meddling possiblities are endless.

Nance said...

Modern Mary is looking into it ONLINE. Here comes a PSA about protecting your information whilst on The Interwebs.

Thank goodness for Exclamation Marks. Without them, we'd never know when to be thrilled or excited.

I always enjoy how Mary switches her drinking glass from hand to hand. No doubt this is a sign that her big change will join the circus as the world's oldest juggler who dispenses great advice.

Well, we will soon know what Moy's vacation plans are. Last year she went to Italy and on a Mediterranean cruise, no doubt deducting expenses on her tax return- research, dontcha know? This year, it's either Elderhostel or an all-biddy escorted tour to somewhere exotic.
Personal note: last year, I was in Florence at the precise time Wilbur and Dawn were; right now I'm in Switzerland, and if Mary shows up here, I'm going to assume my email account has been hacked by Moy's minions. Karen: develop your own travel
ideas and stop stealing mine!

It is good to see Toby keeping up with her Botox again. She was looking rather saggy at the last coffee-drinking, eat-a-blob-on-a-plate gossip ritual. I hope Mary soon realizes that her mouth is about 2 inches to the left of where her glass is headed. If she doesn't adjust soon, she will surely stain her manly mechanic shirt.

Yahoonski said...

Surely I'm not the first to realize that the perfect vacation destination for Mary would be...wait for it...Club Med!

kathyo said...

Since she obviously doesn't lack confidence in her meddling strategy and loves to gloat about her "successes", why would Mary suddenly feel any need to change her point of view? It must be a hint to Uncle Joe to take a perspective drawing refresher.

heydave said...

I suppose it's too much to hope for early retirement and an overdue obscurity.

Toots McGee said...

I recommend that Mary visit the Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia.


In the words of Roland Barthes in A Lover's Discourse: "Every passion, ultimately, has its spectator... (there is) no amorous oblation without a final theater."

Toots McGee said...

A road trip with a muppet or two would also be nice.

Dartpaw86 said...

Wanders, I am now in a very good mood. I was miserable all morning but I didn't notice until I watched that video.

<3 <3 thank you!!

Dartpaw86 said...

Meanwhile "Thing" is offering Mary a drink. Seriously look at her arm, to be at that angle is physically impossible.

Maude Findlay said...

@Nance8:31 AM- Oh yes, I agree! Whenever anyone in Mary Worth goes online, nothing ends well! Mary is about to get scammed, hoodwinked, bamboozled and done dirty!

Will she spot a fabulous deal on a luxury suite, only to find a squalid dump, crawling with bedbugs? Or maybe, she'll take a gander at the ''Casual Encounters'' section of ''Gregslist''- thinking; ''I'm a casual kind of gal, and I could use some new friends!'' ?

No matter what, nothing done online ever works out in the Worthyverse!

Dave in Parma said...

I recommend Wilbur and Dawn's travel agent if a trip is involved. I'm presuming Mary's Timex Sinclair 2000 computer isn't capable of on-line booking.

You can never go wrong with the Muppets (Ewoks excepted).

@Maude Findlay: lol at 'Gregslist'

Dave in Parma said...

Oooooo! one lats random thought: maybe by 'change of perspective' our next story line will be lifted from 'Trading Places'!

Anonymous said...

Yahoonski... couldn't let your comment go by without applause! Club Med - good one!

kathyo said...

THURSDAY
Mary finally checks herself into rehab following that last drinking binge with Toby.

meg said...

kathyo: where she encounters both Lindsay Lohan and Paris Jackson, and makes a difference in their lives. "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, I hate Mary Worth."

Brick said...

Already know what to expect from Giella for healthy delicious meals, fitness, and peaceful desert vistas,
but I'm kinda looking forward to seeing Moy's version of a 'Pax Spirituality class'.

Dave in Parma said...

I'm betting Mary will be able to teach them a thing or two.

The big question though is if she'll travel solo or accompanied and if accompanied by whom?

fauxprof said...

@Dave in Parma: If accompanied, surely not Jeff. That would be highly improper. How about Dawn? We all know what a delightful traveling companion she can be:

Dawn: (gazing at a one-branched saguaro cactus) Sigh... Reminds me of Jim.

MissScarlet said...

Scorpions, rattlesnakes, tarantulas, wild fires and 110 degree heat. Oh, this should be fun.

Link3220 said...

Too bad no one can use the diving board at the Pax Wellness Resort pool, since they built a mini version of the Christ the Redeemer statue right at the end of it.

Link3220 said...

I'm sure I'm not the only one who googled the Pax Wellness Resort in Tucson, to see if KMoy was giving a month long plug(or two or three)in exchange for a free vacation. I didn't find anything but I'm sure one of our more enterprising readers will figure out what she's up to. Which I figure is getting something for nothing, like she does by getting paid to write this drivel every day.

Brick said...

@ Link - Yes indeedie, I had googled Pax Wellness this morning and came up with nothing, but this afternoon I googled the words 'peace Tucson' and found Miraval Spa.
Take away Christ the Redeemer and his diving board and the pool is identical.

Link3220 said...

@Brick - Yeah I'm sure we're all aware of Moy's ploy. Good sleuthing.

Upon further review, I'm wondering why the water in the pool doesn't come to the edge? Did Uncle Joe forget he was drawing a pool and added some beach area around the sides? Even at it's deepest the water can't be more than 2 feet deep. I'm hoping Mary dives in head first.
