Garfield by Jim Davis for January 13, 2019

You were doing great, Garfield, but then you just had to get infected with Jon’s “wonderingness”…

to think Thomas Edison was the one who had all the tedious questions (when he was a schoolboy)

The answer is pretty much like the tootsie pop: the world may never know.

The lights are like Black Holes for flies. Once they get close enough, it sucks them right in.

I thought Alice was the only one who went to Wonderland.

Dead flies do not get into light fixtures. Only live ones do.

Sounds like material for a Steven Wright routine.

Just don’t do what Poncho in Pooch Cafe did a few weeks ago before the holidays.

With extreme ease. Although they haven’t perfected how to get out.

Jon sure knows how to come up with weird questions.

The answer is simple. Dead flies don’t get into light fixtures. Live flies get in and die there.

This requires studying under a $1 million federal grant.

These are questions for the ages.

Misdirected inter-dimensional travel. That’s the only possible answer.

Riddles for the ages.

Yes on the last one. Or at least it’s possible to tell whether they’ve been eating grass or silage. Or gotten into wild garlic. (You’d think a former farm boy like Jon would know that. :) )

Jon obviously has straw for brains. His father must have stood him out in fields as a scarecrow.

Thanks a lot Jon! I will never get to sleep tonight pondering those mysteries of life!

Light fixtures have plenty of wiggle room between globe and fixture. Flies are attract to light, land on the globe, occasionally wander into the small open space and then into the fixture. From there, they generally don’t find their way out, and die. I would have expected Garfield to realize this.

But probably not Jon.

And if pressing buttons on the remote doesn’t work, why do I yell at it and bang it on the table?

Yes… How DID those dead flies get in the light fixture when you never saw them flying around in there in the first place???? Is it some sort of buggy ritual to die in light fixtures and window sills? Hmmmmm Inquiring minds want to know!

Don’t let Jon watch the “Nova” episode on “Particle Entanglements” where it seems that nothing really exists unless it is “Observed”….

Good one!

Will wonders ever cease? :^D

Yep, remotes with dying batteries absolutely do work better when you press harder on the buttons.

This will make a great “Garfield minus Garfield” cartoon.

I frequently wonder about that light fixtures one.

Top 10 questions Science still can’t Answer

that’s me when my teacher is teaching class.

Does a chaise lounge ever run?What’s the middle name of Tommy Gun?Does a swatter really fly?And can a needle see with a metal eye?

ARRGGH

I wish jon can get a life. He can play in football in AAF But rip AAF janurary to april

Uh-oh, Garfield is wondering things

How do those dead flies get inside light fixtures?

They fly in attracted by the light but then the heat overwhelms them and they die
