    Goat, just toss the cat into a Schrodinger box; that way, it’ll have half a chance.

    The cat would have died anyway from embarrassment about being part of this strip.

    Madame Curie WAS amazing. Did you know she won two Nobel prizes?

    Goat had to cancel his radio ads for his tribute city, because when the stray cat chewed the wires, there was no more radio activity.

    It’s simple math. “Schroedinger sharing the cat” after two “out-ings” becomes “Schroeder shar the cat” which becomes “Schroeder the catshar” which is “Schroeder the catcher” who may come alive in the batter’s “box” for two more “In-ings.”

    Sorry, I got myself all tangled up in this nonsense.

    What the heck is a “tribute city”? All I see in the background is a kind of table laden with sciencey-looking stuff. Why not a Joseph Cornell Box? Or a Petey Otterloop shoebox diorama?This has got to be one of the worst-of-the-worst among Pastis-puns….

    Stephan- it beats the heck out of practicing law doesn’t it?!! Hahahahaha. I look forward to reading this strip every day. There hasn’t been a strip like this for years that is this good! Pun humor is so hilarious and Pastis has it down to a science. Love it!!

    Doesn’t the cat in the box(better than Jack) have something to do with particle physics? about particles that change if they are observed?

    I hereby request Steven Pastis to be tried for cruel and unusual PUNishment. Just when one thinks it can’t get any worse…. it does. I do enjoy a good loud groan, though.

    those who yearn for the crocs to make an appearance need to realize that much of their funniness relies on their only occasional participation in this best of all strips.

    Another ‘ripping on Stephan Pastis for his terrible puns’ strip.

    Though I thought it was quite funny.
