Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for March 12, 2015

He’s going to be an ex-parrot in a few days…

Somebody open a window. Please!

He ought to be pining for the fjords.I hear the Norwegian Blue prefers keeping on its back.

I think your going to have to add a little, ‘something, something’, to that smoothie, Fred!

Does anyone else think Fred sounds like Gilbert Gottfried?

It’s not like Rip can’t work. Although, he has had some unsuccessful attempts in the past. But lately, when he finally had his dream job as a sheriff, someone pulled strings to get him fired.First, it was Cobra. Then, it was his own father.So, even if he does get a job, it’s just a matter of time before someone drags him out kicking and screaming because he’s needed on another secret mission.

How about a nice piece of parrot pie ?

Dan that parrot is hilarious! I can almost see him move – pacing up and down the table while he gives Rip what for. He’s like the court jester telling the king the truth, but getting away with it because he is only a jester.

Wait until Fred starts making smoothies out of TNT’s biscuits…

I wanna share the smoothie with Fred. Sounds good!

I know how Rip feels my bride, some years ago called me a loser and nas never apologize, even tho I have asked her to do so several times. That just is how a lot of the women folk are. One thing is for sure, even after 36 years she still likes kissing me, and not too often do we get out of our car or truck that she does not automatically hold my hand as we cross the street or walk to a business of some sort. And! I still adore that lil green eyed blond headed gal, and she knows it. It hurts when someone you love and care about so much thinks at times that you are … well I think that you may get the point I was trying to convey or get across here.

This could become as good as the bird (Stupid) in the Diamond Lil strip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, is Rip sheriff again? I really can’t imagine him in a 9-to-5 job. Although, he might make a good bouncer at Cobra’s bar. She is still there, right?
