The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for March 23, 2018

I guess Dumbo made an earlier edition.

Spock is not on this list ???

And Orville Redenbacher didn’t make the list because…?

Bill’s kids just call him Pop.

So where is Obama? He should be next to Alfred E. Neuman….

The corn triggered an earworm of Big Time by Peter Gabriel.

So many leaders with really big ears

Do they ever take the time to hear

I yell and I shout

But I have my doubts

Their ears only work when I stand and cheer

Speaking of corn, here’s a riddle for the era of big money in politics under the guise of “free speech”:

Q: Which of these is capable of speech?

(D) corporations

(E) none of the above

BUNNY!

Surely the Ferengi qualify! (Not “Shirley the Ferengi”. That’s another story)

Ross Perot has big ears, he heard that giant sucking sound caused by NAFTA.

Bill is also inexplicably cheerful, considering he’s about to get canned.

Totally corny.

“Hear you, I do”…. Is Yoda reading from his script card?

I would lend them an ear but I think they have enough.

I lead the life of a lonely man, Who’s plagued by a brilliant mind; An imbecile for a right-hand man, A prison I’m inside.

By my calculation its a sticky situation, keep it Top Secret! But babe we can experiment and keep it from the government — we’re Top Secret! Maybe we can action on this chemical reaction, keep it Top Secret! But by my calculation its a sticky situation, keep it Top Secret!

The last panel shows why GMO is bad.

Alfred E. Neuman. Sigh Maakes me miss good old MAD Magazine.

Spy vs Spy

The one issue that will always stick in my mind is the one where you folded the inside back cover in third and it read “When Johnny Comes Marching Home,” and instead of a gun on the soldiers shoulder, it was a syringe. The syringe for all of those who came back as heroin addicts. Spoke volumes then and would still resonate today.

Shucks!

Price Charles says “Bully?” Sounds more like Teddy Roosevelt! (Try “Jolly good!”)
