Brevity by Dan Thompson for February 21, 2012

That must be an old picture, with those jowls.

They’d been pulled up and glued somewhere near his eyebrows by this century.

Makes you wonder what condition his condition is in.

Kenny Fried Chicken?

This would have been a lot funnier if any of the restaurants were still around (in the US, anyway), and if they had been more wide-spread.

This panel reminds me of a Rip Haywire strip, the writing, the art. Must have been written and drawn by Dan.

I know about Kenny Rogers’ failed chicken business, but I don’t get the other things on the list or the “Bos” reference.

@ Susan…. Loghts is actually a word. From Old Irish “locht” (“fault, blemish”). So, is the song you mention about earthquakes or perhaps an acne outbreak in the Atlanta area? Could you hum a few bars for me?

So he “took a bath” in the chicken business? Maybe that’s what inspired I lands in the stream.

Poor Kenny the skins so tight , on his head he can’t think.

There was a Kenny Rogers near my old office, and I ate there a few times. The food was good, but not good enough to beat out the competition. I give Kenny credit for trying, though. The only way we grow is by breaking out of our comfort zones.
