FC 111 - Buy You Some Peanuts and WHAT

I could see this comic idea becoming a series. Or, if I was a syndicated comickist*, I could put maybe 3 of these next to each other and make a good Sunday-sized panel. But, alas, I'm just a lowly hobbyist comickist, so this will have to do. But maybe I'll bust the idea back out when comic ideas run low, or when I need a couple of off-blog comics to add to my book to make it more sellable*.

I do, however, encourage you to add your own onomatopoetically named sport in the comments. What if synchronized swimming was named "splish splash"? Or boxing "oof"? We're a smart bunch here. We can come up with some good ideas I'm sure.

P.S. The title of this post should really include a "?" at the end, but this crappy blog software doesn't allow for special characters in the post titles. Lame.

P.P.S. A reader who got a preview of this comic pointed out that some people might not know the word "onomatopoetically". dictionary.com defines it as [the adverbial form of] "the formation of words whose sound is imitative of the sound of the noise or action designated, such as hiss, buzz, and bang". Now we know.

Maybe "Frisshhhhhh-shh-shh-shh-shh-shh-shh-shh-shh-tkk" for curling? In any case, I already think of golf onomatopoetically as "Yawnswooshpttyawwwn", but that's just me the never-understood-golf-fan.

Golf for me (at least on the first hole at my favorite course) should be plunk!

Roadside Attractions:
I gotta remember to stop by some of these someday. The Shoe Tree and Forbidden Gardens would be pretty neat.

A list of prices for flights from Seattle to almost anywhere. Great fuel for the travel imagination!

Portland to Olympia Bus:
I've heard rumor of this being true for ages. Every attempt I've made online to track down schedules has failed. In this thread, someone lays out the options very clearly (about halfway down). I can't verify them via online schedules, but I'd be willing to give it a shot next time I try to make the Oly->Portland leg.
