Young Marcus Bachman horses around with his pal Teddy Haggard while other friends Jim Swilley and Little Lindsey Graham (both not pictured) frolic behind a bush.

You could tell why Adam was the world champion synchronized nude posing. Even though he stepped on a nail he didn´t move a muscle.

[Phil]

That nail looks painful.

[Cynthia]

Bruce and Keith readied themselves for the Greco-Roman wrestling finals. Then Bruce realized he'd found his missing wad of chew.

[Mary]

No matter how hard he tried, Barnabas could not quite reach the object of his desire.

[Phil]

The hall of mirrors frustrated Bruno no end, as he could never quite get his hands on that exquisite fellow he saw just ahead.

[janine]

Bruno should have known better after what happened to his cousin Narcissus.

#1451 Wanda tolerated Narcissus's love for his reflection, but when it started talking back to him she realized she was the third wheel.

[Cynthia]

Narcissus kept his eyes on his face and called, "Hey Wanda, would you pass me my beauty cream, I feel a pimple coming on?"

#1454 Quackers was pleased with his new discovery until he fell into the jar.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Nor was Venus pleased.



Salvador Dali

[Phil]

Employees at Macy's had no idea what the new mannequin was supposed to be wearing, but they liked her rack.

[Jonathan]

Liked her wreck?

Proserpina, Captain Hardwick's goldfish, didn't mind. She was tired of the deckhands using her bowl as a spittoon. She didn't lift a fin as they floated past.

[Jonathan]

Just desserts (said Proserpina to the drowning pastry chef).

[Phil]

Poseidon's vengeance was swift and merciless. "Throw Osama Bin Laden in MY waters, would you," he roared.

1463

Poseidon's vengeance was swift, but his ability to choose his clothing was considerably slower.

[Phil]

No matter how much he worked out and developed his musculature, Poseidon was always frustrated that there were no exercises to increase the size of his pecker.

[Jonathan]

Across the generations, Melanerpes formicivorus has evolved a keen intelligence to compensate for its diminutive stature.



Walter Lantz

[Sarah]

#1466 Little known fact: NBC based the entire concept for its new game show "Who's Still Standing?" on this frame from an old Woody Woodpecker cartoon.

[Phil]

Newt was surprised to find Marianne awake and waiting for him as he snuck home from Callista's place that night.

[Sarah]

Very topical, Phil. Newt's looking good, too.

[Phil]

Looking good for a buzzard, yes. :)

Lucas Cranach

[Phil]

As a novice in the kitchen, Harriet fumbled a bit on the recipe for head cheese.

[Sarah]

Trying to make the most of a bad situation, she threw the headcheese in a pot and made headstock.


Chagall

[Phil]

Jolly Green Giant -- the early years.

[Jonathan]

He was a happy-go-lucky giant--until he met the giantess of his dreams and decided to settle down.



Julia Fullerton-Batten

[Sarah]

#1476 Alice had really hoped that she had put all that "one pill makes you larger" stuff behind her when she moved to Stepford.

[Jonathan]

Ask Alice.

[Mary]

Unfortunately, the constipation medication that Lucy tried was not successful in helping her mover her bowels.

[~Geektastic~]

1480: "Yes, I'm that Alice. No, I don't want to see your white rabbit."

Amber ~Geektastic~ wrote: "1480: "Yes, I'm that Alice. No, I don't want to see your white rabbit.""

Hmmm. Not wise to ignore the bunny.



Heinrich Hoffmann

#1483 Tarantino's sequel to Ingluorious Basterds, Myopic Lagomorphs, might have been more successful if he hadn't insisted on screening it in the original German, without subtitles.

[~Geektastic~]

1483

Warner Brothers never wanted the world to know that they stole the all-American Bugs Bunny from the Germans.

[janine]

Or that the original Bugs Bunny wore glasses.

[Sarah]

Or that Elmer Fudd was an unlicensed acupuncturist who didn't dispose of his used needles properly but just tossed them in his bag when he was done.

[Jonathan]

Sarah Pi wrote: "Or that Elmer Fudd was an unlicensed acupuncturist..."

Acupressure seems less risky.



Ren Xiong

[Scout]

Looking at those guys' expressions, accupressure does seem risky.

[Jonathan]

The one under the blanket does seem a little out of sorts.

[Cynthia]

George wished he had taken the time to find a massage therapist who did not utilize brass knuckles and iron elbow patches.

[Sarah]

George shouldn't have hired a massage therapist from the Cobra Kai Dojo.

[Jonathan]

Humiliated by the massage therapist, George moved to Japan, studied with a sumo master, and learned self-defense.



Utagawa Kunisada

[Sarah]

#1493 Sam's head was dislocated early in the first round, but his corner man said to shake it off and continue.

[janine]

It is such a pitty this drawing is one of the few pieces of evidence that has survived from the once popular sport of Sumo-herding. Notice the herder to the left, holding his Sumo-lasso, and the judge to the right, observing every detail.

[Sarah]

Was there a whole sumo rodeo, j9? Sumo calf roping? They have some well developed calves.

[janine]

Yes, calf roping too. Also important to note: the Sumo's wear a special rodeo fringe.
