Mary Worth 3360

THE MOMENT WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!! June even gave us SQUARE airplane windows! I have never felt so loved. They strung it out forever, but it was so worth the wait! Thank you June and Karen for keeping us so happy. If you haven't watched June's interview yet, it is so great.

Have a great day, everyone. Stay safe. Continue to follow the recommendations of health professionals, and avoid crackpots who propagate snake oil and bull for their own fame and enrichment.

Also, thank you to Tom K. for your donation yesterday and your kind note. I really appreciated that!

Edited to add: It occurs to me that some of you may not understand why I was so excited to finally see Jared's head in the clouds. If so, click here. Has it really been seven years???

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, Mary, how the life goes on.

Mary has a barrow in the parking lots,
Selling muffins that she baked in quarantine.
Buyers say ‘the muffins taste like Clorox.’
Mary says ‘the muffins act as a vaccine,‘

Toby lounges by the swimming pool,
Wearing a tiny string bikini.
Tommy Beede says, ‘Mrs Cameron, you look cool!’
Toby laughs and drinks her Lysol-tini.

Ian and Jeff went on a (3 hour) cruise,
Came back to find they were in lockdown.
Ian says ‘Och no, how will Ah git mah booze?’
Jeff says ‘call Drunkdash, you silly tipsy clown!’

Happily ever after at Santa Royale Pier,
Jeff and Ian are now each other’s best friend.
Drunkdash comes every morning with whiskey and beer;
At night, Bum Boat brings salmon, wine, and gin.

Estelle plays the piano in her stodgy flat,
While Wilbur does naked yoga on the rug.
If you think you might vomit (like Libby the cat),
Close your eyes while he does the downward dog.

"Stewardess! There's a hideous, misshapen monster on the wing of the pl...oh, wait, that's an image of the man I've decided I'm in love with. Never mind."

Where are William Shatner or John Lithgow when you need them?

Come on, Wanders. You don't want to rush the ending to greatness, do you? I mean, don't you want to see Dawn at the luggage carousel, trying to remember which bag is hers? Don't you want to see Jared in the cafeteria, trying to decide between a sandwich or a burger?

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"So Much Them".

(So much...)
"Me?"

Little Nell said...

Apparently being Dawn is much worse than being a vampire - vampires look at their reflection and see nothing, Dawn has to see Jared's mug.

Regina Wolfe-Parks said...

LOL Al Terego you beat me to the punch! Jared's "cloud head" is truly something out of the Twilight Zone! I don't think we've ever had a floating head in the clouds. JB has outdone herself! This is a qualifier for panel of the year, Wanders!

If I saw mopey Jared as my Medical Assistant, I'd change doctors. He is so creepy and weird. And I know others have mentioned this, but what is this, the 1970s and there are no cell phones that Sad Sack can use to send an email or a text. Same with Dawn? What is wrong with these two idiots? They truly deserve each other, like her creepy father and Estelle.

Regina Wolfe-Parks said...

@Meg: Bravo! I'm glad I'm working from home so no one can hear me laugh like I'm a crazy woman.

@Nance a bravo to you too!

KitKat said...

Heavens to Murgatroyd, KM and JB certainly kept us in suspense. Ah, so here it is, not a floating head, but what seems to be Jared clinging to the side of the plane. Al Terego (good to read your comment!), let’s add Bart Simpson to Shatner and Lithgow. (The Simpsons had a terrific parody of “Nightmare at 30,000 Feet,” with Bart on the schoolbus.) And I still think Jared resembles Harpo Marx - he just needs curls instead of the yellow rug.

Meg, somewhere Paul McCartney is looking quizzical and saying, “Huh? What’s happening?”

Wanders, thanks for good wishes. I hope Mrs. Wanders has a delightful Mother’s Day while staying safe. Maybe a Zoom call with the family....

OH. EM. GEE. The floating head to end all floating heads! It's literally floating at 35,000 feet!

This is so awesomely awesome and, in my opinion, its awesominity makes it the leader in the clubhouse for Panel of the Year.

We'll all remember exactly where we were when we first saw this awesomongous panel.

You idiots, pick up the phone and use it!

Darth Curt said...

Holy carp! I just realized Dawn is dating Owen Wilson. The blonde mop, the broken nose. It all fits. Of course someone else may have pointed this out much earlier and I just missed it.

Carlye said...

@meg: Thanks a lot. Now I can't get the image of Wilbur doing a naked downward dog out of my head. The stuff of nightmares.

(Truly funny, though.)

@Scottie: I read the comics before I had logged onto the computer. My coffee almost went down the wrong way. Yes, we'll all remember this frabjous day.

Just A Passing Firedrake said...

Some of you may recall the closing scenes of A Fish Called Wanda.

Me, I'm thinking of the DH.106 Comet, which I believe was the last airliner to have corners on its windows. For a very good reason.

meg said...

Thanks for the kind words, and apologies to Sir Paul for my clumsily constructed parody. And to Drizly.com on which Drunkdash was modeled. Wanders, you’re great!

Michael Beaumier said...

Floating heads bring up childhood terrors of The Wizard of Oz that have not diminished with time. You love Jared? Bring me his broomstick.

LouiseF said...

Thanks, everyone! Wonderful comments, including the reference to the "Twilight Zone" episode that I coincidentally just watched for the first time last week. I couldn't be enjoying a pandemic with a wittier crowd!

KitKat said...

LouiseF, if you don’t already know it, I hope you can watch the Twilight Zone episode called “To Serve Man.” It’s another classic, and coincidentally was the subject of another hilarious Simpsons parody. “To Serve Man” would be side-splitting in the Worthiverse, hahahaha.

Chester the Dog said...

"To Serve Man" in the Worthiverse, Mary cooks up a big pot of Jeff and serves it to her dwindling number of friends.

KitKat said...

Chester the Dog, hee hee! Just picture Wilbur snarfing it down and exclaiming, “This is great!”

On second thought, maybe we shouldn’t picture that.

KitKat said...

SATURDAY
Some patient’s room at Northview Hospital is missing a bouquet.

If Dawn hasn’t been in touch with Jared, did he track her flight online and go to the airport? Whatever, we’re in for a week of their reunion. By Thursday we should be up to “And we’ll visit Hugo and the person he has feelings for in summer!”

Anonymous said...

So... Will Jared ask Dawn about the sleeping arrangements? I mean... she was there for a week without contacting him. You'd think he'd be just a little curious.
