    The quality of mercy is not strain’d, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes:

    Funny, once I started quoting Jesus to someone, and they asked me if I was a Commie.

    “Mom” looks a little depressed… or maybe just worn out from having to deal with Porcho.

    @cdward: Yeah, all that “social justice” and “equality” stuff… I gather you weren’t quoting from the “Gospel According to Glenn Beck…”

    The speech quoted by Shiek Yerbouti is from THE MERCHANT OF VENICE, not the Bible.

    Porcho is really Glenn Beck - wonder when he bring out the chalk board to show that MOM stands for Members Of Marxism!

    WARNING! Horrible “shaggy dog story” ahead.

    A joke told us by my Uncle, long ago and vaguely remembered.

    And copied from:

    http://www.clarion-call.org/humor/humorme.htm

    A British bush pilot is flying on a job through the Australian outback when he encounters engine problems and is forced to make a crash landing. He survives, but is found unconscious and is taken to a local mission hospital which is run by the Sisters of Mercy. Upon awakening, he is greeted by the mother superior who advises him where he is and asks if there is anything he wants. He replies, “I am a bit thirsty…could I have a cup of tea?” to which the mother superior says, “I’m terribly sorry, but our supply truck is late and we are out of regular tea. However, we do have a sort of native drink that is brewed from koala hides.” the pilot thinks awhile and replies, “Well, I just have to have my cuppa…you can bring me that, thanks.”

    The nun leaves and returns in a few minutes with a steaming cup. The pilot takes the cup gratefully, but upon taking a sip, instantly gags and spits it out. “This tea is filled with hair!”, he exclaims disgustedly.

    “Oh, I’m dreadfully sorry!” The nun replies, “I forgot to tell you: The koala tea of Mercy is not strained.”

    Morgan, um yeah, I knew that. I wasn’t referencing Sheik’s comment.

    poohbear, excellent story! By the way, I used to have a dog named PoohBear.

    There’s still one sibling who not only is still unnamed, but (so far as I’ve noticed) has not spoken a single word! Is he being saved for something special? Is SHE being saved for something?

    Hmmm….

    You’d better hope Mom’s not a communist. Half of you would get murdered by her.

    There are five pups, not four. The mystery pup was last seen June 29, where it is also explicitly stated that there are five:

    Look at panel 2; a “spotty” (as opposed to “blotchy”) eye marking. Also, that pup has no patch on its back.

    It’s only been noticeable at all in about 5 panels since P:Y1 began. No name, and no dialogue so far.
