That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for April 23, 2020

Helga managed to get through her day by pretending she was wearing a crown and carrying a scepter.

She read that the key to pulling together an outfit this season was a rakish new hat.

Her job was lawn care. But she was also sneaking away with her clients’ garden knomes.

Carla found that the hardest part about having a pet goat was carrying its food out of its reach.

“I have to patch the piece of neighbor’s garden who ate this damn goat before he see it.”

♫ Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it ♫

the worst part of caddying was having to carry the sod around to replace divots…

cannabis farming is harder than you’d think, especially at harvest time.

Hey, my bust is down here.

Olga was working hard to perfect the hat pin.

“Waltzing Matilda” was last week, get ready for the pirouette.

Everybody sing … “Green Acres is the place for me!”

Her dreads grew exceptionally long during quarantine.

“Ok Toto, We found the Scarecrow, let’s go see the Wizard”

From simple beginnings at a farm in the hinterlands, the trend grew until it was all the rage at Ascot.

Does this hat make my butt look slimmer?

Some mixed greens to take care of her needs and provide for goat: “Weed and Feed”

The girl from the cannabis farm/ has an obvious rustic charm/ but kindly take note/ that she mates with a goat../ Who says cannabis does no harm ?

Helga’s hat had extra trunk space, so that she could haul all the groceries and the kids sports equipment. And it came in handy during the harvest too.

Billy Goat carefully supervising his day laborers.

Alexis had the kind of hair that made the shutdown of her stylist a real hardship.

That rake doesn’t look right. Or is it a comb?? Still doesn’t look right.

It really gets my goat. Hats these days.

Worst! Big! Hair! Day! EVER!

A student of Miss Whimple’s School of Good Posture…

Alexis didn’t make much money as a prostitute whose Johns liked tricks with rakes, goats and grass clippings.

How, pray, can a lady do well/ when the gods have condemned her to dwell/ in a place so remote/ that she’s dating a goat/ though it’s hard to ignore the smell….

Penelope Porter’s “Personal Perscription for Perfect Posture & Pulchritude” called for walking erect while balancing a bale of grass on one’s head and carrying a long rake. But what the hell was the goat for? She never said…

They’re keeping her down on the farm/ and she does have a rustic charm/ but the ode that she wrote/ about “loving” a goat/ is causing her parents alarm.

I love this comic, so consistently creative. Great ideas.

Alexis always knew that her pointy head would come in handy.

I was very impressed in India by the many women carrying even bigger bundles of grain on their heads.

Meanwhile, horizontal growth in front of her ribcage has already doomed her gymnastics career more than any vertical growth would. It’s why the IOC reduced the age definition of “woman” a number of years ago, and puberty-suppressing drug use is suspected on some teams.

“It’s a poultice. I have a headache…Tylenol? Never heard of it.”

Mary sue after seeing ad n TV for hair growth product sent for it, now she never lets down her hair,, she’ll never get back on her head. even using a hair net.

Gertrude was beginning to think her job as a traveling weed seller wasn’t that great a gig.

Shoot an apple off my head … like hell! He has to prove that he can shoot this off first! Now when is the governor going to relax the “stay six feet away from people” rule, so that I can quit lugging this rake around.

“Hmm?”

She has a nice rake.
