Giorgio has suggested the perfect solution for Dawn's moody depression. I hope it's not expensive, though. Wilbur isn't made of money and his credit cards should have all maxed out a couple of days ago. Consumer debt is brutal.
I wonder if Wilbur has to call Giorgio for every Ask Wendy letter? I would have bitten the bullet and called Mary. She lives for this stuff. I wonder if she ever finished that response??
The circular motion Wilbur is making with his left wrist in the first panel must have been the signal to move that building into view in the next panel. Either that physical effort or his glee at Giorgio's suggestion caused his wispy comb-over to flip directions. Mama mia!
Maybe Giorgio suggested that Wilbur and Dawn go get a couple of ham sandwiches and forget the whole Italy thing. Sheesh, I'm sure Giorgio doesn't want to spend any significant amount of time with Downer Dawn...
@heydave 9:59 AM: You made a logical inference when Dawn whined that her problem would not be airsickness. What she probably meant to say was "one more inane, cheery comment, Dad, and I'll barf all over your shoes." However, that's a level of insolence that Ms. Moy could not bring herself to write.
Dawn probably never even got the opportunity to get pregnant by Dave, anyway. His level of committment was that he sat at her table once in the Student Union, and asked for her Econ I notes, then agreed to "friend" her on Facebook. That's the relationship she mourns so deeply.
Designer CEMENT shoes would be just the thing for Dawn. Geez, what a...if she were MY kid, she'd be on a plane back to Mary's condo in Santa Royale while I enjoyed the rest of my trip.
OK, I officially hate Dawn. She's made this strip insufferable and it's not even snark-worthy anymore. I'm tired of looking at her stupid mopey face and Shemp haircut. Today's (7/7) is really annoying!
Dawn will probably try to jump overboard, but I think if I were Wilbur, I'd want to THROW her overboard. The rest of the cruise passengers will probably want to help.
I get some comfort from the fact that her inheritance has all been spent, and she didn't even try to enjoy it.
Don't be shy! I'd love to hear what you have to say about Mary Worth. Just keep it clean, that's all I ask. This is a FAMILY FRIENDLY blog. I don't want to moderate comments, but I will if I have to.
Giorgio's suggestion is for Dawn to spend an evening on the town with Giorgio's son, Guido. Dave will soon be a distant memory.
ReplyDeleteGo Giorgio! Woop woop woop woop woop!

ReplyDeleteMaybe Giorgio told Wilbur to go back to Santa Royale and give Dave an offer he can't refuse, mafia style. Problem solved.
ReplyDeleteI am still ticked that Dawn isn't pregnant and I doubt that I shall get it over that easily.
ReplyDeleteI thought the whole point was to make Dawn anything other than herself.
ReplyDeleteForget about Dave and what's her name...Three little words to make ANY woman's heart go pitty-pat while in Italy:

I hope Giorgio's suggestion is to take Dawn to Venice and drown her in a canal.

Why doesn't Wilbur just give Dawn a puppy?
ReplyDeleteor just go fly a kite again! I mean it worked the last time!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea. That sounds great. Rye instead of white. We'll try it!
ReplyDeleteI like Wilbur's shout out move in honor of Arsenio Hall's return to TV.
ReplyDeleteWhy have we not seen Wilbur with a ham flatbread sandwich yet on the trip?
Guess Dawn will be off to the Roman baths.
