Garfield by Jim Davis for May 14, 2010

Good idea! I could go for a pizza.

It’s gonna be a long movie.

Garfield purposely chooses such shows… long commercial breaks…

It will eventually turn into a slugfest.

….Time for Big Top.

Not enough time, to clear up the trail it leaves behind, though.

Good one, Edcole! As long as the slugfest doesn’t degenerate in to a slugfeast and end up in something like this..

Reminds me of a lot of movies I’ve seen.

Slow cooked steak cooked to perfection as we wait.

cryptomaniac: It boggles the mind at how stupid the human race can be on occasion…

Quick, put a ring of salt around the city!

@LW18: Hopefully low-fat pizza, if you (and Garfield) want to fit into those swimsuits this summer.

For some reason, escargot sounds good.

Movie immortalized in an ode by Shell-ey.

@Tanya You’re right. At times, it would seem even the snail race is better. Oh wait, did I just say “snail race”… hmm

He must be watching SyFy.

Radioactive snails are much too high brow for SyFy.

freeholder1, E-SCAR-GOT! Funny spelling of that word.

By the way, escargot…. BLEEEEECH! >X-P

I rather eat scampi shrimps.

cryptomaniac: That you did, but it’s okay, it’s Friday… No one’s really paying attention… They’re all eagerly anticipating the weekend! :D

I think the snail will have gone into hibernation by that point… the viewers, too.

It’s like the killer bees. In the 70’s, they were swarming up from Texas, and would be the end of us all, but 40 years later they still aren’t here yet.

Cats are my favorite pet, Garfield favorite cartoon, pizzas the favorite food. Together may they be friends forever.

The Texans drove back the killer bees with concealed carry :-)

The killer bees didn’t have green cards so they went back across the border except for a few with fake birth certificates.

They are still around. I saw a news article a week or so ago about them showing up in Arizona.

Killer Bees: Great SNL skit, better than average Dolphin Defense and insects who were really deadly only in swarms and as a threat to our honeybee population. Made some REALLY bad SF movies even before SyFy was birthed. (This is so far wide of the Garfield curve.)

It is a giant snail, so it will only take six months. The bees were too tiny to make any headway, but once a year or so they make the news. They’re still down south.

Wasn’t there a killer bees movie from the Jaws era?

Isn’t there a problem with the honey bees disappearing en masse in parts of North America? This was supposedly causing a problem because there were no bees to pollinate crops.

Just salt the dang slug, movie over

NoBrandName….. Yes, there is a problem with disappearing honey bees. I almost cried the other day when I hit a swarm of honey bees with my car. I wiped out a couple dozen bees at least, and I hope I missed the queen. The first time this happened to me I hit a full swarm with a motorhome and the road was replaced by bee carcasses and honey. Talk about a mess to clean off a windshield!

Escargantua must be doing a crossover from the ‘Monsters vs. Aliens’ movie

…I’m hiding from Dapperdan61.

CCD- Colony Collapse Disorder. Now they are leaning toward insecticides which collect in the honeycomb base so they are recommending it not be reused more than once by beekeepers. I like working with bees but I am getting old and it is hard work.

I was a hero to a young lad in Caracas once who panicked when he saw a bee inside the bus we were on. I held my finger in front of it, let it climb onto my finger which I stuck out the window where the bee flew off.

Hm. Anyone ever notice how much Iran looks in outline like a snail? Is it trying to become a giant radioactive snail? Dare we wait another six to seven months to find out?

I’d assume the worst and act accordingly, given who’s running the snail, er, show.

That said…for me, this is a classic Garfield as far as I’m concerned! :))

Find a better channel, Garfield.
