Literary – "Tuttle's" by Sam

Sequels, Part 2

The only sequel I can think of that I like better than the original is the New Testament.

Better (?) Sequels

I can’t think of a movie sequel that I like better than the original. “Empire Strikes Back” come close, but no cigar.

Please Pronounce the Words in the First Panel

For those that are in the know, the Kalavala was one of the old stories that heavily influenced Tolkien.

Define Peripatetic

I can’t remember where this one came from. I’m guessing I read the word in a book, but I cannot now remember what book.

Versed in the Classics

There are shows on TV now that are good, but not a one of them is as good as The Rockford Files. Every episode is like a well-crafted movie and James Garner was just the king! BTW, you talk to homeschool kids and you’ll find that they know history (and most subjects) better than their public school counterparts and they know how to talk to adults.

Stuporheroes

I think I have reached my saturation point on superhero movies.

True Wombat Factoid

I learned this fact while researching wombats for a book I was writing that everyone who has read loves and still quotes passages back to me but, sadly, you will probably never see.

Pink

The thing I have noticed is that people who know who Arhur W. Pink was aren’t familiar with the lingerie brand … and vice versa.

Chesterton, Buddy, ChesterTON!

I remembered this strip and it’s hard for me to believe that’s it’s already been 4 years since I did it. Seems like it was just months ago. But then, I also remember that I was so struck by that quote that I used it in my novel Ashes to Ashes (see it at http://garisonfitch.com/book/ashes-to-ashes-the-last-valley-book-1)

Fixin’ Star Wars

This has been my idea ever since The Last Jedi came out. For those of you who don’t get the joke … ask your parents (especially your dad) who Victoria Principal is.
