Mary Worth 2534

You know, simply by turning the picture upside down, it makes September 23rd's art completely different! Try the same thing at home using today's first panel, which appeared on September 22.

If you're trying to make changes in your life, here is some very good advice from the old Mary Tyler Moore show:

  1. Oh, man! So bummed that we haven't seen the last of the Tweedle-Beedies! Was so looking forward to a pool party in today's strip. : (

  2. Late one night at Charterstone

    Mary, sipping liberally from a big glass of Pruno (aka prison wine, made from Tommy's recipe, substituting OAT for the bread- so much more nutritious), unleashes a Tweetstorm:

  3. Oh Wanders and meg, you've taken my angst at All Beedies All the Time! and made me laugh. Thank you, thank you! If not for you two, I'd be pounding my head against the wall.

    Let's lock Karen Moy in a room and keep her there until she promises to deep-six Iris and Tommy forever. #banishbeedies

    Oh for a clown painting, lopsided clay animals, and a bagpipe...

  4. Wanders - That was an incredible display of memory!

    June Brigman is so bored that she couldn't draw another panel.
    A rejuvenating stay at Pax Wellness Center is needed.

  5. So are we going to see all the same panels from the last six months but with different dialog? Kind of a parallel universe, time loop, butterfly effect experience?

    June, our readers are getting restless. #stepupourgame

    @realJuneBrigham
    Karen, I so agree! I'll shave Mary's head in the next panel. Could you bring back Ian and Toby with a juicy storyline?#deathtobeedies

  7. Karen Moy is stuck in a Beedie rut of her own making, and she doesn't know how to extricate herself. We must, in all humanity, stage an intervention and get her into rehab, or at least make her attend Beedie Anonymous meetings.

    "Karen, we're all here because we care about you. You're hurting yourself and everyone around you. Look at poor June. She's repeating old panels and can't draw noses anymore. Roy is indiscriminately bolding random words. And Joe! Joe retired and he was only 93!"

  8. Yikes! Well said to my dear fellow Mary Worth and Me-nites. All I can add is to quote Bill Murray from the movie 'Groundhog Day': “What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn’t one today.”

    @meg: Thank you for your tweetstorm! I laughed and laughed! ... You made it all sound so interesting ... a parallel universe indeed.

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.
