Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for May 13, 2016

Rule writers, card carrying or not, have to go on to the testing stage (no Vernes were hurt in the making of this game) and enter the state of “why not”, which often morphs into the limbo state of “how” and “is this fun, yet” (where the writer’s block of the cryptically challenged doesn’t cut it any more but, finally crossing another state line, we see, drawings do.)

RJ can your mouth get you under that limbo stick ? I don’t think so…………..another sorry case of Verne abuse :-(

For life is like cricketWe play by the rulesBut the secret that few people knowThat keeps men of . . . classWell apart from the foolsIs to think up the rules as you go!

- “The Roar of the Greasepaint, The Smell of the Crowd”( Leslie Bricusse & Anthony Newley)

Just say “NO!”, Verne. You’re allowed. (From the person in charge of “NO”. Why am I in charge of NO? Cuz I called it first, that’s how come)

Just for that I cripple Mr. Onion.

Does anyone else hear tiny steel drums playing? (and where is Izzy?)

Love the “Survivor” torch!

Limbo lower nowHow low can you go?

Reminds me of a quote from Stewie Griffin …

“This isn’t the first time my small stature has hindered my plans.”

Good strip today.
