Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 21, 2013

who’s getting married?

Something familiar,Something peculiar,Something for everyone…

Fifth panel depicts as (while Guard Duck gets the cigars and Goat the chips) Rat filing a complaint to Stephan Pastis on the punchline.

I now pronounce this a poker game! You may now cut the cards…

A comedy tonight!…………………………….Pig, at any rate, is pretty much of a joke. I am a bit surprised that Goat is a party to the regular poker night group.

Toon Boy’s pun is penny ante.

Sorry but does anyone know what happened to the magnifying glass so I can view the strip bigger?

AHA, I found it, I just had to hover over the strip! WHEW!

At least they have beer.

I agree

what happened to the ‘share’ button so we can send to friends via email. Not happy ’bout this.

“Sit down Pig.Just shuffle the cards.NO this is not Old Maid.”(Knowing Pig he will win every hand.)

love this!

Well, at least there were no dogs in the drawing…

I was hoping that Stephan was building up to a juicy pun – for puns or pun-like thingies, see today’s Frank and Ernest (here at Gocomics), or Mother Goose & Grimm http://www.seattlepi.com/comics-and-games/

I see Zebra didn’t get invited.

I didn’t realize Guard Duck ever talked.

A friend of mine hated cigars so I gave him a candy bar.

Maybe he should log on and spend the next 2 days watching ALL the old Charlie Chan movies. New material from old classics!!

Personally, I"m surprised Pastis didn’t receive a pummeling, or threat of one, in the last panel.

I thought the “blue” was Rat’s language. No need to color the chips.

Something old, something old, something old, and something old. Slow day Steph or what???!!!! This is almost as bad as the dang polar bear panels.
