Can’t the little varmints share.

What in tarnation is Bleeb doing in that guy’s back pocket! One to many beer nuts I guess?!?

I’ve noticed that the squirrels in my backyard are using my tree stump as a table to sort out their nuts ! There are walnut half shellsfrom my walnut trees all over the place as they are gathering them all up for the winter.

Now they’re seeing why the bar owner has been accused of being a little squirrelly!

Acorns are lying all over my yard, yet the squirrels are still digging up holes all over, looking for what? I looked in the holes to see if they are burying the acorns – nope, just a hole.

That’s just nuts.

Very kind and so loving!

I’ve noticed that the cartoonist writes backwards very well! Lots of practice.

Hmmm, Beer Nuts!? Party favor, or medical condition?(pssst, Bleeb! Get his wallet!)

Not a bad plan. Obviously this is not the Pooch Cafe.

The bats must be at the other end of the bar. They’d be a natural for this bar.

Hi Everyone! Hi Little Alien Dude! (Hey, McPherson does a pretty good squirrel!) Um, Bleeb? The nuts are in front!

It’s that time of year and I am very thankful for all of you nutz. And of course, BEER!!!!! burp. :)

Ah yes, reminds me of that oh-so-existential question: “What’s the difference between beer nuts and deer nuts?”

Beer nuts are 95¢. Deer nuts are just under a buck.
