Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for August 20, 2020

KA-BOOM it is!!

Anyone who has ever watched a Warner Brothers’ cartoon knows that these sorts of things always have air brakes.

Ka-brakes!

The self destruct button.

Is that thing labeled “stop,” or is it just a big red button? You might want to dig around in there for the manual, just in case.

Shouldn’t they have blasted through the bugs maximum ceiling by now?

Rip just wants to feel the power, before he dies. KA – YEE – HAW!!!

Spiderman, spiderman…

He just needs a big friendly button.

When you’re riding a rocket, always keep your mouth closed. The wind resistance ruins the mileage.

Remember the Sci-fi story, Button Button ?

A plant I worked at had a control panel with a big red button. It was not wired to anything.

KA-STOP BUTTON!

Yup, it’s great to have a job you like.

In Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension, Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz asks the question, “Why do I always put a self-destruct button?” LOL

Do a job you love… and someday, you’ll get to press a big, red button.

With your luck, Rip, I’m sure you’ll drop over the ’World’s Biggest Jello Mold!’

Jobs like his are ‘Slim Pickins’.
