Garfield by Jim Davis for September 03, 2017

Who didn’t see that coming?

How about some aloe vera, Liz, for those burns?

Probably best if Liz handled the food.

where is everyone?!!

“Borrow some from the Fox family down the block then, I know Roger has a spare.”

I gotta say, I love the design of that title panel!

Not unlike reading Crankshaft… which I deleted.

Oye I was hoping he was gonna ask for an EMT?

I believe we all saw this one coming a mile away…

At our first apartment, my husband & I bought a little yellow Sunbeam grill (similar to the one in the comic) and wanted to christen it with a cookout with friends. My husband put in the charcoal, added the fluid, put in the match…FWOOM When the fire died down we noticed that the little “Sunbeam” metal nameplate was missing! We looked down, and most of it had melted into the walkway where we were grilling. You could only make out the “unbe” and the rest was a silver blob.

Jon strikes again, literally

Twigs and paper work better. And no aftertaste.

I use a Weber chimney with paper on the bottom… Works great, safe, no chemical taste.

The last days of Summer are going out with a Bang… or rather a ’’FOOOMF’’.

Jon has about as much luck with grilling as Roger Fox.

This has been done on Foxtrot like about a billion times. I haven’t used lighter fluid in ages.I use one of those aluminum chimneys. Put the charcoal in the top, a couple of pieces of newspaper in the bottom. Light the newspapers and wait. Have a beer. The charcoal will be red hot in about fifteen minutes.

Notice how Liz and Garfield don’t even bat an eyelash when the fireball goes up

“Gallon jug of Bactine®, stat!”

When are they gonna get married and have kittens…. Wait! What did I just say?…

Bill Amend called. He wants his gag back.

If Jon had a moustache that would be gone as well!

xxx

Nothing Liz’s eye-liner can’t fix.

Some old cooking oil and a paper towel are all you need. Lights up nicely and no aftertaste.

That title bar, it somehow reminds me of the McLaren MP4-32 livery!

lol.
