Transcript For Strip 2207
Panel 1Two pairs of eyeballs, ‶1″ and ‶2″, looking at each other in the total dark.
Caption: Historical flashback: Texas, the winter of 64 SA:
1: Three days without electricity! What the heck happened?
2: Texas has its own electrical grid, and it wasn't prepared for this freak winter storm.
Panel 2
Two pairs of eyeballs, ‶1″ and ‶2″, looking at each other in the total dark.
1: Who's responsible for this disaster?
2: Well, some blame the wind turbines, some blame the natural gas suppliers, others blame state regulators and power suppliers.
2: So, politics as usual.
Panel 3
Two pairs of eyeballs, ‶1″ and ‶2″, looking at each other in the total dark.
1: So, we freeze in the dark due to typical human folly.
2: That's the size of it. Helluva punch-line, eh?
Panel 4
Suddenly the space is illuminated. We see a single light-bulb above which has snapped on. And our interlocutors are, The Cartoonist and a wild javelina, reacting in shock to each other.
SFX: CLICK!
1 and 2 in unison: AAAAAAAAA!!!
Panel 5
Entirely filled by caption.
Caption: I swear all of the above is true. Well, metaphorically true, anyway. No javelina was harmed in the production of this cartoon.
Seriously, I had no power to my home/studio for three days which completely ate up my buffer and left me exhausted from scrambling for firewood and tending the fire in my fireplace so I didn't freeze to death. So I need to pause updating the strips for one week. Sorry about that. QUANTUM VIBE will resume Jan 29.
