Bozo by Foxo Reardon for January 12, 2022

3 – Hey kid, cars bounce off Bozo!

1. Now you know how I get my shoes…

2. Now it’s dawned to me where Bozo gets his bulbs…

3. Now we still don’t have an answer for the eternal riddle why the old chick crossed the road…

1 Bozo loses more shoes that way.

2 Bozo just wants the best bulb money can buy.

3 Bozo gets a warning not to horn in on the scout’s gig.

1~ Fuzzy slept right through it all, and still has his shoes.

2~ A bulb is all he needs. Now, where’s the bulb tester? (If they sold bulbs, they had a tester back then.)

3~ Grannie is a lot more pleasant when she’s not grocery shopping. (See 01/07/2022)

1) Cat calls get results. 2) Bozo’s not the brightest bulb in the store. 3) Bozo…the elder statesman?

LOL! Such great funnies with beautiful detailed artwork with excellent perspective art. Of course a big thumbs up and a big applause for FoXo’s marvellously magnificent masterpiece, the splendid speechless splendour, the pleasant picturesque pantomime called BOZO! No day is a sad day with Bozo to cheers you up.

Everyone has shinny toed shoes-except the scout. I know, I have to get out more. (Just appreciating the art.)

Self-improvement. Home improvement. No improvement. I don’t remember the first time someone called me “sir” but I remember I didn’t like it. Oddly enough, I don’t think anyone has called me Mr. since my high school Algebra teacher.

1. Bozo should have just closed the window. Then he’d still have his shoes.

2. Bozo just wanted to lighten up.

3. You shouldn’t stand in the street sir. Let me help you across.

1) Nighttime Serenade: A loud ‘cat’ prompts Bozo to toss his shoes to quite the animal. We see a hobo wearing those shoes as he leaves!

2) Lightbulb of an idea: At a furniture store Bozo wants to get a lamp with light bulbs so he trades out from another one for it!

3) Help It Forward: The ever-courteous Bozo helps an old lady across the street then a boy scout helps Bozo back across the street!

1. Bozo got outwitted! That doesn’t happen very often.

The trick is to get the victim to throw both shoes. If he only throws one that does nobody good.

Boyscout to dad: “I helped a little old lady across the street today.” Dad: “That was nice”Boyscout: “It took me thirty minutes.”Dad: “Why so long?”Boyscout: “She didn’t want to go.”

Bummo’s going to walk a mile in Bozo’s shoes.

3) I wondered why people used to help the elderly across the street. Was it from long enough ago that, without help, there was the potential to slip and fall from the horse manure that was endemic before cars?

Turns out the elderly often can not walk fast enough to get across a road in the time allotted by traffic signals. That said, I’m not sure I’m capable of helping a little old lady walk faster. Seems to me dragging her would be a hinderance. Sure, I can politely give her an elbow to hold, but that won’t get us walking 25% faster.
