What Up Foo?
Posted on October 17, 2014 by p.j.
For those who don't know, Foo Fighters' a band. Yep. I hired them out. Got a good deal on them.  

Blunder Alert! Blunder Alert!

I made a blunder. A mistake. A clerical error. I realize things got a little out of sequence. Here's an explanation. I sat down the night of the 14th to write up the comic for the post on the 15th. I struggled for a while with it and realized, it didn't work. It, well, stunk. So I quickly set out to write up something different. In the process, I wrote a great little gag about Carl handling the planning and events of Bear Flatts Lodge grand opening. I was pleased, smug almost, at how it came out. So pleased in fact that I began to plan a little sub story arc about Carl's exploits in the planning process. Then, for some reason, I happened to look at a comic I posted back on October 3rd and realized, to my horror, that we in fact had already arrived on the day of the grand opening. So Carl couldn't possibly be planning the event because the event it already in progress. Hmmmm. Well, chalk it up the time travel or something. That is all.  Tune in next week as the grand opening for Bear Flatts lodge get underway.  You.. are... invited.   Cheers.

    Time travel always works well in such situations PJ. Duffy’s words sounds like something from a Dr. Seuss book

    What is a “Foo” and why are they so hell bent on fighting one?

    1. p.j.

      They’re nothing.
      Apparently it’s a term from WWII. In London, they would have false alarm sightings of enemy bombers which would prompt firing antiaircraft at what they thought were actual aircraft only to find there was nothing there. Foo meaning “nothing.” Hence Foo Fighters.

      That and they’re a decent band.

    Ummm now you have my Curiosity peaked LOL… You, being the overseer, the creator, the most important here:

    Can , maybe, possibly do a flashback or 2, (or 3) to delay said opening, thus keeping the suspense going and at the same time keeping us all laughing at Carl’s exploits while he was “in the planning stage”…. or not 😀 😀 😀

      I actually thought about doing that. My wife brought the same thing up last night. We’ll see. I’m definitely not lacking for material either way.
