Calling Dr. Carlin…. Dr. Carlin report to the ER… Gluteus maximus extractus, indeed!
Today’s comic title comes from a scratchy 45rpm record I own! “Stuck in the Middle with You” by Stealers Wheel hit #6 in the USA and features vocals by Gerry Rafferty who would later have a huge album in 1978 called “City to City” and it features his trademark song “Baker Street”. “City to City” finally knocked the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack from the top of the charts in July of 1978. Thank you for that Gerry. Bonus day… I’ve included what I think is the best song off “City to City” called “Home and Dry”. Give it a listen and let me know what you think. Not your typical head-knocking rock songs I normally go for…

–dee!
I would just like to say that I am not Dee, despite Dee’s comment looking like it could’ve been written by me…
You know I heard a remake of “Stuck in the middle with you” sometime back I think in the early 00s or late 90s……too many late nights listening to piped in music at work.
What is with the bandages. Did she miss the mark the first few times? OUch
Funny as well as I know this song, I never heard of the bands name.
I would say she probably beat him up badly, then the Sticks were only the “Coup de Grâce”!!!
“Blood makes me queasy.” LOL!
PS: The doc looks like Eddie Rabbit.
Dude! You so nailed the repartee between them in such a situation! Kudos! oh so frabjoyous YEAH! to see the return of Dr. Carlin, too!
(!did!I!use!enuff! !!!!?)
Hahahahaha great title. And a doctor who’s afraid of blood. OH my!
I can’t hear “Stuck in the Middle” without having flashbacks to that scene in Reservoir Dogs with the guy getting his ear cut off.
That dude’s in a very bad place. 🙁
Have to disagree with you on the track. “Baker Street” is the best on that album in every way, and on one glorious summer’s afternoon in London formed a sort of incedental theme track for my visit to The City (the one where you can find the street in question) as it was blasting from the open pub doors everywhere I went.I liked most of the tracks on “City to City” tough. I’ve been cursing for years that although I can get (and have in fact got) “City to City” and “Night Owl” on CD, “Snakes and Ladders” doesn’t seem to have been issued in that format.Happy Thanksgiving everyone (everyone American, anyway). Once again it’s time to Tryptophan the Light Fantastic.
“Blood makes me queasy” really sounds like a Carlin line. Good job!
Go Robyn! LOL
Just noticed the change in characters in the top header. LOVE it. I gotta do that with mine…
that should cost a LOT more!
“Will the REAL Doctor Finnerman report to neuro-surgery, Immediately!”
Light bulbs and shot glasses are a lot more common objects to have to remove, and a lot trickier. Show up all the time in ERS 😉
