Nothing complicates high school for the class nerd quite like a few random wishes gone wrong!
This is just a one-panel test of the idea.

Catcher in the Raw?
Sounds like GREAT filk. Where can I rent it?
Image is fine now, don't know why it was so dark earlier.

PS I finally figured out I had incoming mail - now that I have a logon again -, thanks for writing back about Private Mountain way back in 2005. If the muse ever comes back, I love to see more. There was a childlike mischievousness to it I liked, much like the Fairy King it was meant to tide us over on.

Catch'er in the Raw...
...may actually exist, I'm not sure I made that up, I may have remembered it from somewhere. :)
I know I've read the original Salinger story but for the life of me, I can't really recall more than a mood from it. Still, it was pretty famous back when I was in school. And generally hated because teachers insisted on analysis.
I'm kind of torn between when to set IWaTaCl--my high school days or the present. I'm sure to get stuff wrong either way. :)

Catcher vs Catch'er in the Raw
I was in HS in the mid 70's - 73 through 76 - and somehow escaped that particular horor.
However, we did have to read A Separate Peace and some Melvil, not the one with the whale and a little Shakespeare. Oh and the lovely Hester and her fun "A", Ah the lightness that is Hawtorne.
Have fun with your comic, if you need bad ideas , I'm willing to assist.

Sounds good so far...
Erin it sounds like a good story, and i will read the fist part, but you know me, if I don't like it tho, I will definitely say so (giggles).

Silly Rules
I'm going to be aiming at silly, mostly with this one. :) What's not to like? But there will be a villain.

Very Obscure...and stop you are killing me?
Erin,
"Catcher in the Raw"? Next it will be,what, "Moby Dick, or the dreaded disease of the 18th century?" :) If John runs out of bad ideas you can always count on me! As for Catcher in the Rye, I never forgot the scene where Holden Cawlfield in a NYC hotel being self absorbed saw that poor middle aged tranny across the way in another hotel slinking into his girl clothing. I never forgave Salinger (was it Salinger?) for not elaborating on why Holden had no idea what "angst" was, and was always curious how that little scene came to his mind. LOL! I am not even going to touch images about pubescent boys wearing horns...honest.

You know, I think the schools colors can be red and white, so cheerleaders can all wear Scarlet Letters. :)

The Music Man?
I always liked the part about letting Heaster earn one more A. From The sadder and wiser girls for me song in the Music Man.

Rounding heels and bases
The sadder Budweiser girls got what they deserved for not drinking the brew that made Mel Famey walk us? ;-)
That should take us safely back to Zook and the baseball game. ;-)

More Groaners
Amelia, how could you?
A politically in-correct -- for Milwaukee but St. Louis loves you -- pun and a groaner punchline. Time to get out the old reliable Acme Disintergrator and Blatz you. The Pabst is Pabst and never will be agaim. Oh Schlitz, I made a typo!
That joke was old when I was born, back when two artifical satelites orbited Earth and neither said made in USA.
48 years old and you made me feel a senile old git, if the discusions about sliderules over at Crystal Hall weren't enough.
Class of 76 rules, actually that's class of 69 but I was class of 76 so ...

P.S. I remember something about waterbuffalo when you began this sillyness but why the horns? And don't say "because hoofs would mar the floors."
