Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for December 20, 2023

Wanda it was good clean ditch water. I don’t see a problem. Besides if that kazoo is covered in germs, Hammie has done caught em.

Give his immunity cells a chance to work.

But Mom, we did wipe it off!

Your so harsh Wanda.

challenge your immune system and you will grow stronger; or, well, maybe you will die: ceste la vie

Hamish, what goes through your mind…

Kazoo Goose Step.

A ditch? That’s the same as a floor. The 5 Second Rule applies.

I agree with Wanda, although I can understand Hammie’s point of view

As they say “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger” and Hammie has been exposed plenty of germs, bacteria, etc. and he’s still kick’n.

… as ditches go…

He’s already had his mouth on it, what good does it do to rinse it off now!

It’s amazing that more kids don’t die from over protective mothers. Eating a little dirt when young helps the immune system develop.

Ich or ick, properly known as Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, is a fish disease, Wanda, so Hammie is safe.

I mean, it was just a ditch. common…. It’s perfectly fine.

Hammie getting exposed by all kind of germs now, will keep him healthy later on.

Give it a good rinse before it gets a good Wren’s.

As a fan of silent movie player piano “Photoplayers” and orchestrions I once wondered if a Kazoo could be “automated” – closest thing I could find was “the singing robot” or Seamoons : https://youTu.be/2XLGoPw0Dg8?si=YjK5zZjG9Pp6FnL2

Lady, get a life!!!

In real life: all those poisons that kids ingest and breathe in, because their parents got sold on constant disinfecting, are the ones that cause all those asthmatic and allergic and autoimmune kids… Whoever heard of all those conditions 60+ years ago, before all those stupid wipes and were invented?

Just remember when you kiss someone or kiss their kazoo you have kissed everyone that ever kissed it!!

I grew up swimming in the ditch in front of our house and the stock tank at our ranch, this was in the 70s and I have never caught any exotic disease.

I washed it off with the garden hose I was drinking from.

Most kid’s kazoos have a thin paper membrane to make the buzzing noise. Rinse it off, and it’ll likely be ruined.

Wanda, did you really expect something different? After all this is Hammie.

I got mine, deluxe kazoo straight from China via amazon vine…(true)

True story: my kid had a bandmate in school ask to try out her instrument. Turns out he had mono and she got it from the mouthpiece. Some people’s platelets fluctuate after mono; hers never recovered.

Moms worry too much.

I love kazoos! I put a bowl of (new, clean) kazoos out at Christmas for our Khristmas Kazoo Karoling. I also keep one in my car, in case I get stuck in traffic.

Haha! (＾▽＾) Washing it now won’t prevent him from getting germs. He’s already got them!
