Jeff: Say it with me, everybody: Dun-dun-DUNNNN!!
Jeremy: Looks like all that heavy driving and playing got the better of our band. What happened? Looks like a smash-up in or around Frederick, MD! Hey, I know somebody who lives in Frederick, MD. His name is Chris Williams, and he draws an awesome journal comic called Christopher: The True Story of a New Father. Personally, I love to see his drawerings. I could look at even more of his drawings than just the ones in that comic, to be honest. I want that wish to come TRUUUUUE. You hear that, Chris? This is a challenge. I want to see something special. I will give you one week to deliver. Game on, bro.
Jeff (yes, again): Ooh, and bonus points to the first commenter with an explanation for today’s strip’s title!
I’m very familiar with Frederick, MD. Also our own Michael Anthony Smith from The River radio station is from Frederick.
“Tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel”
As for the title, that wouldn’t be a Maroon 5 reference would it?
Bare Naked Ladies’ 2000 album was “Maroon.
Driving home to be with you
The highway’s dividing, the city’s in view
As usual, I’m almost on time
You’re the last thing that’s on my mind
I wish I could tell you the way that I feel
But tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel
Gee, Jason beat me to it. Bare Naked Ladies, Maroon album, track 12, title “tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel” by Steven Page put out in 2000.
Chester needs to start cradling Elle before I start to worry, but I guess those Ouro Brothers sure are cuddly.
Yes, indeedy, bonus points to Jason! (Runner-up extra points to Steve for the lyrics. And an ‘A’ for effort to Mary, for the Maroon 5 guess. Um…sorry, Mom. :shrug:) And, yeah, Todd, I think if anyone needs some Chester-snugglin’, it’s Elle.
