Gruesome.

Gosh.

Surely there are pictures in the world that don’t involve weapons, warplanes, and disasters!

Is his head up in the top picture?
I didn’t think he was in the same position in both.

Um… I think maybe I’m just a wee bit too early.

I saw tomorrow’s date, but it’s only 5:45pm PDT
I’ll … uh.. make dinner and come back when the strip is posted.

Backing out the door now…. shhh… just pretend you didn’t see me

Oh!

You posted all that while I was typing!

I’ll still make dinner and come back…. I’ll even bring the puzzle solution!

(First world problem: My autocorrect keeps changing “solution” into “doll muffin”. Sigh…)

I remember when it was about $5, when that was money… enough to get dinner in some restaurants.

You mostly didn’t rent a movie for solitary viewing cos you could see it in the theater for less.

Nobody I knew had a player… You rented one along with the movie.

My brother had two kids… one rental place had a deal.
A player and three movies for three nights, for something like $20, including a “free” package of JiffyPop.
I’d sometimes go watch a movie one of the nights.

The catch was that on the third night, you had to drive to the store and put everything in their drop box before they opened the next day… and the fees added up if you didn’t

Grant Wood – “Spring in Town”.

His painting has a way of adding deep shadows and different levels to things, that may or may not be actually flat…

Like the lawns across the street in the background, and the highway in yesterday’s painting.

The Citadel of Allepo, in Syria.

But what’s a couple thousand miles between friends?

BTW it looks concave here but I thought it was convex.
I’ll have to find another picture.

If you look at the shadows on the slopes you can figure out that it’s convex, esp the shadow on the object at the12:00 position. It is deceptive though, a reminder to check what we “know” to be true.

I’ve rotated the picture 180°, it makes the raised centre and the ditches easier to see.

Yes… Thanks!

I had decided it was probably upside down, because it looked like l the back perspective was longer than the front….

but I got distracted from getting back here.

I believe I’ve located all ten differences today. I bet you thought you would trip me up with the old ten instead of nine dodge, but hah! This time, I was ready for you!

The central character is in an Asian font, and I don’t know about the “hands”.

I don’t type it.

Most virtual keyboards have a key for emoticons/emoji, and when you use it there are tabs for different categories.

There will either be a tab for text emojis, or it’ll be a separate category, along with gifs and stickers. The symbol to click will be a text “smiley” :⁠-⁠)

If you do, you’ll find tons of “shruggies”…. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠༼⁠ᴼ⁠ل͜⁠ᴼ⁠༽⁠_⁠/⁠¯ ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯ ┐⁠(⁠‘⁠~⁠`⁠;⁠)⁠┌ 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•⁠_⁠•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ

But I prefer the most common one ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Okay, all you restless hordes waiting for the puzzle solution… fret no more!

At long last, I has brung it!

BTW, I like this picture. It was actually a New Yorker cover… another one from StelBel.

The pampered city dogs look like they don’t know what they would do with a cat even if they could catch one.

You, however, should do your best to catch ten differences, before you

Peek here!

You don’t want all those dogs after you, in case they figure out what they’re doing.

I was out Saturday, so didn’t look too close to the puzzle until this morning (Sunday).
