Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for January 28, 2010

Because, somehow, that makes the news. I don’t know how he made Earl’s connection.

but which would be more terrifying? boxers or briefs? probably not the exploding thong. i’d imagine you wouldn’t get more than a firecracker’s worth of explosive in a thong.

Maybe a “Y front” is a shaped charge.

I had an explosion that ended up in my underwear…

Um… We were hoping not to hear that!

never trust a fart.

Or when you have the flu, be vewy vewy careful how you cough, it can be disaster.

Would definitely add a new dimension to the term… atomic wedgies.

Can joke about this now because on Christmas Day, the good lord saved 300 lives from a nutcase on a plane from blowing himself up with his underwear just the same way he stopped another nutcase eight years ago from trying to kill people on a plane with his shoe!

ROLFMAO!

::Wrinkles nose:: It’s…Brown Evil!

The good lord must have been having a day off on 9/11.

I was just think about that too.

So that’s the latest poop.

Stay away from the brown acid …

Wiley Miller: I think your strip is GREAT! I enjoy almost ALL of your ‘toons! Thanks!

Poppy, thank you for sharing…a stink bomb, eh?

I say this NOT to start a firestorm….as a survior of the 9/11 horror in downtown NY, no dirtmusic & bdaysuit, the good Lord didn’t take a day off that day…He was right there with all of us, from sea to shining sea….

Amen, NYTexas

Tonight’s menu features a black bean burrito, 3 bean salad and refried beans.

it’s such a crappy subject!!

god had NOTHING to do with 9/11, the shoe bomber, Anthrax, or the underwear chucklehead.

PEOPLE with twisted evil minds are responsible for that. To think God had an active hand in ANY of that is wrong. It’s like looking at a piece of toast and seeing the Madonna. It’s ALL in the eye of the beholder.

Plus, this is more of a political statement. the main Difference today is the righties don’t up the threat level to protect the shrub from any criticism. Remember when the neo-cons were telling us the only way to be safe was to give trilions to their friends and to always be affraid.

I am happy for you, NYTexas, and all other survivors. But tell us, what did the “Good” Lord have against the 3000 (roughly) that didn’t survive 9/11, or those still lung damaged or emotionally scared from the debris of that day, or the thousands of Iraqi and Afghans, plus our troops and their families that will someday be the end product of his inspiration for Dubya & Cohorts? Did they just forget to toss a pinch of spilled salt over their shoulders? And the “good” Lord hasn’t done much to stop his protégés from polluting every shining seas.

Now that’s pure gold. Earl and Edna should have their own strip!

Hey folks, we’re not in the garden anymore. We were kicked out to find out how it is to live without His protection. To skin our knees. How would we learn if he prevented every disaster? Disasters that mankind perpetrates on himself. God does not do these things to us, we do.

Not that He doesn’t occasionally intervene.

Well what happened on that plane was sheer karma - the guy tried to kill everyone by setting off an explosive in his underwear and ended up with setting his underwear on fire. Hopefully the damage was enough to prevent him passing on any of his genes.

However I do hope that the TSA will not require people entering the secure area of airports to remove their underwear.

Umm–God gave us free will, has tried to teach us how to use it properly, lets us mess ourselves up when we misuse it, offers us a way back when we repent–short of removing our free will, what more can God do?

God had nothing against the 3000, or anyone else who dies. We all have to die some day. That’s a fact of life. God does help those willing to work with him to die with dignity and hope.

I’ll bet saying that isn’t the only thing Earl regrets doing out loud.

Gopuppy, if his private parts are damaged enough to not pass on his genes, he would qualify for a Darwin Award (see the website for detains) and would be in an unusual category because he did not die to get the award.

Not wanting to butt in on this talk of disaster and blame thing - but I think this is the set of Bible verses you would want to refer to:

Luke 13 4 - 5 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”

Christ appears to be saying ion context that God in fact did cause the calamity and for a purpose - repentance. That Jesus guy was blunt and tough on folks and doesn’t appear to be that sweet guy some folks think He is. ;-)

wiley, thanks for a funny ‘toon. it put me in mind of my late b-inlaw as he had ..er a problem and he would have loved that one. again thanks.

Tooo funny, guys, Love all the comments and the toon is terrific. Rather says it all.

If the terror du jour is underwear bombs, people in kilts should be able to bypass screening, right?

Wiley, 2 thumbs up!

Earl wouldn’t even make a comment like that…Earl’s the type that knows that underwear doesn’t kill people, people kill people.

Enough about gastrointestinal problems. This strip is much too gaseous for me!

Wow. Just goes to show you how dangerous Bible software can be in the hands of the willfully ignorant.

The number of people posting comments that purport to be explaining God’s state of mind and intent is amazing. Did all that come from a burning bush? Through tin-foil helmets? Seriously, folks, I rather doubt that any of you have a hotline to the Almighty so give up trying to sound like you do.

THIS IS SO GOOD

THIS IS SO GOOD

I’ve had good chili do that.
