      Speaking of Boom and Serendipity, we can be pretty sure that This is not the U-boat in question!

        Link spoiler!

        “Photo: The last Type VII U-boat in existence, U-995, is now a museum at Laboe, Germany. It’s the same model as the sub that was sunk because of a malfunctioning toilet.”

        Hehehehehehee!!! I needed that. Thanks!

        …
        Before the word sans, I typed in
        and a space
        and I seem to have seriously screwed something up…
        Yargh!!

        I believe the Html tag characters everyone’s trying to type are ‘<‘ and ‘>’.

        I managed to have them appear by typing ‘&’ followed by ‘lt;’ for ‘<‘, and ‘&’ followed by ‘gt;’ for ‘>’.

      Well, that went down the crapper fast, didn’t it?

      “Aw man, the captain stunk up the whole sub…”
      Somebody should’ve listened to the complaints when they were still rationing beans & broccoli to submarine crews.

      I don’t think there is a pencil or pen capable of drawing Brandi’s expression of joy. Thus us seeing the back of her head

    The amount of force that Brandi’s using in that hug would probably cut a normal human in half.

        Nah.. Stinky had already doddled off, playing with the anchor. After the knock on his head ,he probably dove under to soothe the bump on his head…

        Stinky’s alive, count on that. Maybe a little bruised from falling debris if he stuck his head up to see what that “boom” was about, but that’s about the extent of the damage.

        I think it’s official. Next to Tepoz, there’s now another personality from the GG’s past with a steady spot in the clown-car… A living statuette and a kraken..well, why not..

        Although, it might become a bit troublesome for Minneapolis if Stinky decides to move to lake Calhoun, to be closer to his friends…… On the other hand, tourism would boom.

      • Fatuncle
        April 15, 2011, 5:58 am | #

        And until the tourists caught on, Stinky would be cheap to feed.

        Forty years ago, after ouir second burglary in Midtown Atlanta, my roommate and i decided we needed to get a pet bear.

        And leave the place unlocked..

        And we wouldn’t get burglarised.

        And crime in the neighbourhood would go down.

        And we wouldn’t need to buy Purina Bear Chow.

        true
        if that happens less than an hour after meeting him again – you would assume hanging with the girls might be a tad dangerous 😀

      It’s about that time again…
      (turns the b&w portable to the ‘old’ channel)

      They call him Stinky, Stinky, farting like thunder,
      No-one you see is larger than he,
      And we know Stinky lives deep down under,
      Jetting there under, under the sea,
      Golem Girls love the king of the sea,
      Ever so dim and simple is he,
      When Bud’s there for the day,
      He’s a submarine valet,
      They call him Stinky, Stinky, farting like thunder,
      No-one you see is larger than he,
      And we know Stinky lives deep down under,
      Jetting there under, under the sea!

      Bud did find a change of clothes. It’s probably for the best; that steel corset looked uncomfortable.

      If any of the Golem Girls wouldn’t be likely to play with Stinky, it’d be Jin. So I can see the sort of think where cat’s love to rub all over people who aren’t cat lovers…

        I find myself more and more intrigued by the puzzle of Stinky’s relationship with Jin, Bud, and Brandi. Where on earth – well, the sea, or under it – did he meet them? At which point were they on or in the water long enough to form a friendship? Was he a little squid at the time, or a kraken of size? Is he a natural phenomenon, or was he, possibly, a purpose-bred weapon of the Lathians?
        I sure hope we get some backstory here!

      Brandi and Bud are at home; they don’t need shoes to hang around the apartment. Bud was barefoot anyway before the sub exploded.
