B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for February 28, 2021

Ah.

Go them one BETTER.

Invent Ivory.

The soap that Floats.

I’d always wondered how that worked

If he’s so excited about inventing the wheel, then he must be in ecstatic seventh heaven since 2 days ago they had already invented the car.

A slab message from the past to present – “Could you get them wheels, plez?”

and now you know…the rest of the story.

It’s so easy to take these things for granite, but they’re really quite marble-ous when you think about them.

So-o-o-o-o which side did it first? Seems the first one of these I ever read, the stone was sent by Peter. Or did he just collect them as they washed ashore and reuse them?

Finally.

If you check Back to B.C., the first time that the pen pal gag was used, there was a sign that read “Wooden slabs”.

Granite now floats by executive order.

LOL

I think you really can spring your tongue if you push it to hard into your cheek. …tsk

Not only do they float. But they seem to have some navigational power as well.

always wondered about that

Okay, they’ve had the wheel since this strip began (pretty much), so how can it be “new”?

Ah! The mastodon in the room is finally addressed! I’ve seen so many comments on that over the years!

I’ve always wondered about that!

Very good!

Not to mention those slabs are equipped with a precise GPS navigation system too.

Ha ha ha

Great. A lotta water under the bridge since I last saw this routine !!

Just saw a Dick Van Dyke rerun last night – Richie told Laura he wanted his “rock that doesn’t sink.” She said, “here it is dear, and it’s call a cork!”
