The title of this page is so ridiculously obscure I wonder if anyone will recognize the reference.

Scott Lake, or Lake Scott as some call it apparently, is a real place. I generally don’t tie things in the comic to actual places, but I felt like I could go ahead with it this time. If memory serves, it is a man made lake that was constructed in the 20s. My memory of it is so vague I could tell you little more abut it than it is a body of water, somewhere in Kansas, near Scott City. I haven’t been there in decades. The only thing I really remember about ever going there was seeing a venomous water snake. In any event, you can go there if ever you have a mind to, and pretend that you were in the same place as the cast, and maybe see a venomous water snake.

Additionally, I genuinely wonder if people remember either of the movies mentioned. In recent years it very much feels like there is no longer a cohesive pop culture, so it’s possible that no one reading has seen either film. I suspect that at least a few of the older commenters have, but I don’t know it for sure. In fact, I have never seen Goodfellas all the way through. I’m simply aware of the important scenes via cultural osmosis. It seems like a decent film, but I’ve seen several documentaries about the people it is based on so I generally get the concept. In any case I’m wrapping up these little plots more or less so I can wrap up the date and move on from there. Which is not to say I won’t pop in on other characters to break monotony, but the actual problems are resolved as far as they can be at this point.

What is not resolved is the perpetual need for money, which brings us to the reminder that you can support these efforts via the links above. Although, as I’ve often said, I understand that these are increasingly dire times. At any rate next week is a week with at least some level of annoying things I have to do, so I’m really glad that I’ve timed needing to draw a lot of new stuff so perfectly with having less time to do so. I am a fucking genius.

Anyway, I hope you have a safe weekend. God willing I will see you on Monday as always.
