Mary Worth 2942



It’s about time Tommy wrapped this up. 

I’m on vacation this week, so my posts may be a little clunky and erratic. Not unlike this comic strip we all love so much.

Good evening, and welcome to Nightline. It's Day 22 of the Tommy Hostage Crisis. Young-ish Tommy Beedie remains a captive of his guilt despite the efforts of two expert behavioral counselors, both of whom failed to persuade the guilt to release Tommy from his torment. But first a word from our sponsor, Margy Muffins spokesman Ted Miller . . .

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"Kyrie Eleison. Non Plura De Hoc".

Sacred self. Worthy all.
Mercy, peace.
No more...

Enjoy your vacation Wanders. Don’t worry, when you come back, Tommy will still be debating whether or not to tell Brandy about his sordid past. Next stop, the corner bar where he’all be telling the bartender his troubles over a Shirley Temple.

Ehh, we all need a vacation from Tommy and his “confession” - bleah. Maybe Fr. Feelgood does too, and that’s why he forgot to give Tommy a penance. @Regina Wolfe-Parks, Fr. Feelgood may be the one patronizing the corner bar, with something stiffer than a Shirley Temple.

@Nance, both Greek and Latin today! I’m impressed!

I can hardly wait for Tommy and Brandy to have their next meeting. Ha, just kidding - I hope they both vanish off the face of the earth. We’re way overdue for s Charterstone pool party and some non-Beedie, non-Weston characters.

Reeling from a marathon confession session which caused him to miss saying Mass for over a week, Father Feelgood hurries to check the Guinness world records to see if he’s won anything. Upon finding that there is not a category for longest confession, he sighs and just has a Guinness.

The priest is sounding more like Deepak Chopra than an actual Catholic priest. So I can add this to the list of things Karen Moy knows nothing about. Or was she afraid to get actually Catholic in this confession?

Downpuppy said...

I've wondered for years why Moy is so reluctant to have anyone talk in specifics. It's often a pain, and this violation of the rules of confession is about the worst.

Anyhow, it occurs to me that she's probably just too lazy to go to the archives and read up on Tommy's specific crimes.

Sandi Ego said...

Yes, Deepak Chopra or that smarmy mega-millionaire Joel Osteen and his diva wife. And now that this ridiculous confession is over we will never see Tommy in church again. I sure hope he lets Brandy know just how worthy of love he is.

Nance said...

@KitKat--LOL. Don't you dare be. I was trying to cover my bases and used a few different online translators. Apparently, I picked the wrong one. ;-D

r u ok? said...

Wanders - couldn't you have done us a favor and taken Tommy along with you on your vacation so that we could enter into a new story line? Tommy could amuse you by talking about himself all day long every day.

Enjoy your time off.

If anyone was wondering why "Tina baby" dumped him, now you know the answer.

I just realized why it's more fun to hate Wilbur than Tommy. Wilbur doesn't realize he deserves it.

Tim said...

Wanders, I briefly thought you wrote that posting would be erotic this week, which wouldn't be family friendly. Then I read it more carefully and realized you said erratic. Besides Eros doesn't have a home in Worthverse.

Tommy has been in confession so long, Brandy has gotten a job on a cruise ship with Triple E and is sailing the high seas!
