Uhm...how do you break the nose of something that can fall apart into a random pile of vines?

Crash test dummies impact with something in 10 Seconds.

1. Mom.
2. Cabinet filled with china or antiques.
3. One of the aunties.
4. Oscar's bowl.

Tangle of bodies, hopefully a smashed phone.

A good chase needs some chase music.

Or this one...

And there's this site, which will dub any YouTube video with that soundtrack... really neat results!

Nah - this.

I'd have gotten this post in before Lake Wrangler's, except for the fooling with the track.

5. Case with Mom's spider collection in it.

My vote is for 4.

I love that in panel 4 you can see Atsali on the phone's screen.

Edit: Oh, and a note for Atsali. Password protection is your friend.

Yep, I came to the forums for the express purpose of noting that to the rest of the community.

Note the orientation of said picture, Castela must be still on the backswing of that particular stride otherwise the picture would be upside down.

Landscape mode.
Thank you, Castela.

Eeeeeeeeee!!!!!! You can see the lil Atsali pic on the phone!!!! Awesome Detail!!!! I see Kath coming around the corner to see what the ruckus is and getting bowled over. Tree stump!!! heheeeee!!!

EDIT: I think someone said already about Castela knowingly poking at Atsali's buttons... the little weed is stomping on them at the moment!!! LOL

In tomorrow's episode...

Castela fails to negotiate a turn, hits a wall, and collapses into her vine form.
At the bottom of that heap Atsali sees her phone.
On the screen the progress bar is slowly extending.

Oh, I wouldn't worry, Atsali. It's not like every schoolkid in Minnesota is stuck at home on a Monday just surfing for funny videos.

What are the odds.

Fairportfan · Post by **Fairportfan** » Mon Jan 06, 2014 2:00 am

I love Atsali's progression of thought in the first panel - from surprise to suspicion of little sister's intentions to "You're doing what?!?"

I don't think there is problem with the screen orientation, it looks to me like the phone is still recording video (and sound?)

hmmmm .... I wonder how much my browser can zoom in on the phone?

*zooooom*

Does anyone have one of those Blade Runner zoom in and enhance type programs to get a clearer view of the phone screen?

I'm not quite sure but I think that exact moment/image could be captioned "Warning: Items in view screen may appear closer (or further away?) than they actually are"?

and perhaps even be turned into a good spoof of the "T-Rex chasing the jeep - looking in the review mirror" scene from the first Jurassic Park?

Grantwhy · Post by **Grantwhy** » Mon Jan 06, 2014 2:20 am

now, how was Castela's sentence

"My-my friend Dayalla was telling me 'bout ..... "

going to end?

..... how to record video on a phone?

or

..... how to record video on a phone and update live to the web?

It could be as simple as Castela loves Astali's dancing so much she is recording it to enter her in a "So You Think You Can Dance" type of show?

I was thinkin' the same thing FAIRPORTFAN. What is it they say about great minds and all that?

I think Castella is still recording the chase as evidence of Atsali's face on the screen. Bet this goes VIRAL.

(FYI: I have High winds, Sheets of rain outside the house now. ... Just peeked out the front door and it looks as bad as it sounds.)

Similar to Brotherhood, I'm sure: The joys are quiet, but the fighting can be heard in the next county.
