Wow…. Cleomigos! Tomorrow comes early to “Cleo and Company” ….
Where Perro rides again…. and it’s only Episode (Chapter? Page?) Seven.
Well… ok, not again, exactly… because he hasn’t ridden yet… not where we can see it anyway…
and…um…. he isn’t …. well…. he’s in the saddle…. but I wouldn’t say he’s actually riding… yet.
If there were one more panel…. he’d be riding. I’m sure of it.
But he’s really really close, right?
Poor loyal Fernando… the faithful friend…. the patient patsy… will he ever learn?
I think maybe he knows already… he tries to discourage Perro, and then you can see the panic in his eyes as awaits the whip.
But when you’re the trusted pal and confidante of the man who’s about to lead the uprising…. a man who will one day soon be very powerful….
who is skilled with the sword, and almost-but-not-quite proficient with the whip…. or at least, he HAS one, right there in his hand…. I mean…. what can you do?
I see that Nighthawks has chosen to play “Fernando” by ABBA, as accompaniment.
But another song was going through my head, because of the underground hideaway….
I started humming it…. it seemed perfect… complete with castanets…. until I realised…. that one isn’t “Fernando’s Hideaway” … it’s “HERnando’s Hideaway.”

Welp. My Adam Crack Whipmaster link didn’t show. Maybe it’ll turn up later. The kid is amazing. Have watched him many times at The Bristol Renaissance Faire in WI.
And now back to our hero not being a whipmaster. Perro gets down to it. Loving this arc.
Y’all try not to injure yourselves. (((((HUGS)))))

I have been to Woolverton (the correct spelling) Mountain in Conway County, Arkansas. It is just north of the Nemo Vista High School and off Hwy 9 a few miles. The Nemo Vista mascot is the Redhawks. What else do you want to know?
It ain’t much like a mountain – more like a glorified hill. If you’re coming from Bee Branch come south on 65; turn right just before you get to the ICBM Launch Complex 374-7 Site; follow that road to Austin and turn south on Hwy 9; about a mile south there’s a sign (I think) for the Woolverton Mountain Cemetary Road; it’s about a mile to the west from there (if you drive past 4 chicken houses you’ve gone too far).
Missed it by that much!

I think my above post, with an unnecessarily long URL, is the closest to reflecting this strip.
Dennis… in case you want to know…
Video or image URLs are unnecessarily long if you copy the address of a whole PAGE of results …
instead of grabbing the URL of just the one you want to post.
Your URL above starts with “Bing.com/videos/search? … meaning we’re taken to a whole list of videos, with the search engine’s “best guess” featured….
in this case, the correct one AFAIK…. but not always.
If on THAT page, you click on the video itself, to open it, and copy the URL up in the address bar…
or simply right-click it on the results page, and select “Copy video URL” …
either way, you get a MUCH shorter link, which takes us directly to the video all by itself.
In this case, https://youtu.be/j_QLzthSkfM
Which is the same URL Tigressy posted.
Long story short… and you don’t even have to open it.
Yes… as I said…. you can just right click and select “copy video URL” .
Perhaps I should mention that the exact phrasing could be slightly different depending on which browser you’re using.
It was late and I wanted to go to bed. I just verified that it worked, and left it./
That’s a severe case of whiplash.
My Favorite Partâ„¢ was … oops.
Don Doggo needs lessons from Devo on how to whip it good!
Those are some legs on that basset.
That horse has grown some.
…legs.
Find the bunny!
Funny-looking; but yes… I like the mice.
Why do I think of Happy 3? I didn’t find the bunny, but I found a mouse. Eeek!
I’m still looking for the bowling ball!!!
Me, too…..and the frog. But, I did find the bunny – Yay!!!
Happy(3) should be all over this one, in a manner of speaking.
Finally found one. How about posting answers the next day for those of us who are find it impaired?
Van Gogh or one of yours?
hah!
First:
Thank you for all the welcomes back. It’s nice to be able to comment on Cleo and Company again. 🙂
Second:
As Don Doggo goes for his first “ride” I’m not sure how much I’m going to like him.
His behaviour toward Fernando (later hero/revolutionary in his own right? –see ABBA– ) can, in my opinion, be summed up in the statement below.
“He’s behaving like (the crude description of the part of the horse under his cape in the last panel).”
Crack that whip!

That one’s easy — I’m always aware that I’ve hurt myself again!
Question for Nighthawks:
Do you know what the countdown timer under our comments is for?
Don’t say anything that you’ll want to change 8 days later? Just spit ballin’ here. Snerks
well, I had to put a number in there….originally I had it 24 hours, but I was
advised that that was too short…..I figure a week should be enough….everybody
will have moved on after that, anyway

What else do you want to know?
is Clifton Clower’s daughter still around?
I tell you what – you come to Arkansas and me and you and @Greyhame will go looking for her.
I have driven through Bee Branch. Next time I’ll take the detour to stand on top just for the song.
It ain’t much like a mountain – more like a glorified hill. If you’re coming from Bee Branch come south on 65; turn right just before you get to the ICBM Launch Complex 374-7 Site; follow that road to Austin and turn south on Hwy 9; about a mile south there’s a sign (I think) for the Woolverton Mountain Cemetary Road; it’s about a mile to the west from there (if you drive past 4 chicken houses you’ve gone too far).
Awwwww. How sweet!
Wow! I was so grateful that the cigar was undamaged!
I know, huh?
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
