*whooshing sounds as the reference goes over my head*

(I had to look up the name of an American Idol contestant and picked Kree Harrison at random)
(Swatting is "an attempt to trick any emergency service (such as a 9-1-1 dispatcher) into dispatching any emergency response based on a false reporting of an incident. Incidents may range from large to small, from an entire SWAT unit to a fabricated police report meant to discredit an individual as a prank or personal vendetta. It is a misdemeanor or a felony in most states to report any untruth to law enforcement. The name "swatting" is derived from SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics), one type of such team." Apparently doing this to celebrities is a 'thing'.)

Thanks for confirming my assumption that you were making an American Idol reference (I don't watch it ), but thank you even more for clarifying your use of the verb "swat." I've heard of the new fad of "swatting" celebrities, but I didn't make the connection when I read your funny.

Then again SWATting someone is no laughing matter...

Actually ... Etymology: Julienne French feminine form of Iulianu. So, if anyone, it's the tall girl in the group. A baby naming piece starts out with: Julienne is an emotional, sensitive and nervous woman who seeks the company of others, first and foremost. She is both idealistic and realistic. Given how our girl is biting her lower lip, I'd say the nervous part is true. Seeks the company of others? Right again. She's probably in a Company even.

OK, My contribution:

You will have to excuse me if this has been done before, I searched this thread for anything similar. Also I am not artistic in any way, but I heard a local band play this song last night, and had to do it.

Not bad at all! Give RunningBull a cookie!

In spite of humming that very tune while working on coloring her, I never thought to put it to paper. Well done RunningBull!

Oh Bud, you so silly.
Apologies for the rough edges, I pretty much just banged this out as soon as the idea came to me.

Works for me...

For some reason I'm seeing Zonker's Uncle Duke there, psychotically swatting bats with his ruler...

Ha!! Cute, and somehow apropos.

Well, it explains the cuts and abrasions.

^ But it does produce some spectacular rainbow farts?

Partially Jabberwonky's fault.

That looks more like a muffin that went sour in her tummy than a craving for one.
