Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for May 29, 2016

Only if you’re a character in “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, Danae.

Well you can turn orange by eating too many carrots….

It looks like Danae’s been shampooing with them (while Kate’s been using the carrots).

The juice can stain your skin if you eat enough and dont wash

Or cockatiels…Rose breasted grosbeaks? Tufted titmouse? How do THEY feed? And what are those birds with the red heads called again? Hey, just riffin’….A little blue comedy, for all ya’ll tonight…………

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot! The red breasted nut hatch is just the cutest little thing…..

BTW, A very bleautiful rendition of a bird Mr. Miller….

Wiley Miller’s stuff does appear to owe a certain amount to Watterson’s Calvin & Hobbes, sometimes. Calvin’s father would do this.

Sorry to hog all this space, but.I…….Awe Dang, here I go again again….I think I need therapy..Maybe Bruno, too…..

It’s up there with Calvin’s Dad’s explanation of things like bridge weight limits and sunsets.

Actually, there are some birds that get the pigments in their feathers from what they eat. That’s why flamingos are pink and cardinals are bright red.

To feverjr – yes, eating too many carrots will turn your skin orange – not a deep orange, but still orange-ish.

No, but they WILL turn your poop blue…..

I spotted a Cardinal eating one of my tomatoes.

All these years drinking blue berry juice didn’t make me a blue nose. But did get da blues in the night. So Danae will have something to look forward to; an Kate will probably be correct. But poor Dad will regret the day he made one two many cute tricks.

C’mon, sis, Danae will NEVER got a therapist on her own. . .may be court-ordered. . .

Napoleon wondered if Elron is one of Danae’s heroes?

No Danah, it only works on feathers.

WOW, that explains my red nose. Too much red ale?

My Dad told me that if I put salt on a bird’s tail, it couldn’t fly. I spent a full day trying to sneak up on a bird with the salt shaker.

Calvin’s father also does quite a bit of warping of Calvin’s young mind. (I refer to Calvin & Hobbes.)

I know someone who turned orange from eating too many carrots, and my son’s bum turned blue from too many blueberries when he was a baby so why not?

Like she needs his help needing a therapist.

El Ron? Wouldna be surprised.

Mahonias’ have black berries and yellow flowers. They are loved by blackbirds. Mr. Blackbird has a black coat and a yellow beak. I have seen a male teaching his chicks about mahonia berries. True.

Wait til she sees an Indigo Bunting !

“I wonder if one of her heroes is L. Ron Hubbard. Napoleon certainly did.” My comment was on the sequence of the sentences. At first glance it seems that Napoleon is making a comment on L. R. Hubbard. Elron may have been a fair-to middlin’ sci-fi writer, but he was a questionable theologian.
