Pooh did this once (in an attempt to get hunny right from the beehive), but he smeared himself with mud before going up so he could pretend he was a raincloud.
So, gocomics webmaster, did you get a nice big raise for doubling your clicks by putting in the annoying ’Overview" that shows nothing but a center panel of the days comic to make the viewers click out of it to actually see the comic?
I have got to stop occasionally checking Pearls Before Swine. It’s not funny even that often. I keep hoping the incompetent crocodiles will reappear, because they’re the only characters who make me laugh; but I never luck out. The problem isn’t Stephan Pastis’ nasty attitude, it’s simply that his jokes like this aren’t funny, just stupid. Get Fuzzy, it’s not.

I can’t really explain it, but this strip – especially Pig – gives me a belly laugh almost every morning. Thanks, Steph for brightening my day.

Backpacking off trail with complete solitude in the High Sierra is my escape, and it’s only a half hour drive.

In the sixties they used to say drop out. Now they go up.

“Up, Up, and away / My beautiful, my beautiful balloon. . . .” Jimmy Webb. Just Pig’s way of getting high. (I do apologize, but I couldn’t resist.)

You’d think a heavyweight comics star like Pig would need 99 Luft-balloons.

I’d rather find a nice underground cave so I don’t have to witness the next great extinction event.
