Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 19, 2014

What I want to know is how those two ended up in line together.

It is good to know I will be rewarded in heaven!

I guess it’s it’s own reward when I pick up other people’s dog cr*p?

Gosh, it sounds like you could go away on holiday & your babies can take good care of each other!!! opening cans?wow!!!

Only cats and bears go to heaven, it is so written,,,,,by the ancient elders…..

That was a crappy thing to happen!

@Nabuquduriuzhur

Seems like you are taking your obsession with politics and such and letting it ruin everything for yourself. Go back to the Guardian and the Blaze, and leave GoComics alone if all you are going to do, is post the same junk here that you do on those sites.

So if you pick up s*** you go to heaven quicker. Hummmmm.

Great comic WM. I’ve been known to stare at folks who begin to walk away after their pooch lets loose and they don’t pick up. One guy who didn’t have a bag used his handkerchief after he noticed I was looking.

Express lane for those who cleaned the litterboxes.

In my apt in FL, I made a cat flap that I blocked at night with an ottoman, more to keep the wildlife out than my cats in. They learned to shove it out of the way in the morning and let themselves out. I never had to clean the litter box unless it rained.

I heard a rumor that there was a drunk who would walk his do and then urinate on the dog’s stool to help it decompose.He was found frozen near a neighbor’s porch because he could not get into ‘his house’.

Pets should come with a sign…Yes I poop, don’t you?

religion in comics? lol proof there is no God

Why the worries over the long line to get in? Lots of time (eternity) on your hands.

Well, just be dog gone.

“Well, it is biodegradable . . .”Where can I nominate you for the “Appetizing Breakfast-Read of the Year” award, g?(I’m not offended, Old Timer, just a little grossed out, ok?)

Then you are in the wrong line entirely. The down elevator is the other direction.

re: the strip (only) – understandable, particularly if you’ve ever trod onto a pile at the beach or in the grass at the park. Don’t have to be any kind of partisan to appreciate that!

I want to know what an ‘express escalator’ is, to begin with. I understand express elevators. They don’t stop at every floor. But what makes an escalator into an express? They move at the speed of light, or what?

Ohh, BTW, Arrrrrrrgh, Mateys! Avast and shiver me timbers!Almost forgot till I saw a clue on a crossword that my husband hadn’t gotten yet!

“According to Rome, purgatory doesn’t exist any more.”…Did you mean “according to a scientific consensus among the learned”?

Now I’m conflicted. My doctor is always after me to take the stairs.

According to Rome, purgatory doesn’t exist any more-But still does in Vedic tradition; it’s called karma and rebirth till ya get it right !!

According to Rome, purgatory doesn’t exist any more.

Actually, purgatory still exists. (CCC 1030-32) What is not a doctrine is Limbo for unbaptized babies or small children (CCC 1261)—they are entrusted to the mercy of God.

H. Jackson Brown Jr., “Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.”

Bmonk, thanks for the clarification, but if the souls in Limbo still don’t have anywhere else to go, so, doesn’t that leave them in some sort of …um…limbo?

In the city, pick it up. At the dog park, pick it up. In the woods away from the paths, do like the bears….do they pick it up?

As for the religious pontificates, I refer to he letter of James" Show me the works behind your faith and I’ll show you the faith behind my works." BTW, words do NOT equal works!

I was sitting at a table at the window of the Mustang Lounge on Mackinac Island, looking out at Astor St., watching the people, bikes and horses…A young lady walked across the street, trying not to step on the large quantities of brown marshmallow shaped horse poops that were in the road. ..(The famous Straw Fudge)..In the middle of all that, her very little dog squatted and pooped….Right among large piles of horse poop……….Well, she pulled out a bag, scooped up her poop and went on her way…..I ordered another drink in her honor….Well, yeah, I would have ordered another drink anyway, but at least now I had a reason….Anybody seen Bob?

Let’s consider the idea of “eternity”. I see that as an infinite number of years – so there is no beginning, no ending. Therefore, everyone who has been or will be born (and subsequently died) and also meeting whatever hereafter criteria there may be, are already there. Thus it doesn’t matter if you’ve picked up after your dog or not.

Forget picking up the dog mess in public, upscale that to a horse, one weighty bag at the end of the ride…
