Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 15, 2020

I thought bonsai tees are coniferous. But what do I know. Love the little guy raking the foest floor.

A nicer attraction for the shop than Audrey II.

Dear Wiley, this is not a particularly nice way to point out that nearly all men are inherently stunted.

‘The Little Garden Shop’ – a subsidiary of Lilliput. ;)

I suspected as much

I’ve never heard of bonsai’d people… cute idea.

Well, they never complain about being short-handed in that shop.

Bonsai shortage — is that redundant?

Suddenly, I could feel Charles. Addams in the room!

almost any tree can be made miniature. “bonsai” means small pot.

Something that Charles Addams might have done half a century ago.

But don’t turn your back on those Banzai trees!

Bonsai Gardener?

He’s ahead with just the mulch. Check out now! Step away from the Chrysanthemums!

Is this downsizing?

If you think the groundskeeper is tiny, wait till you see the squirrels.

I need a little help with my yard too.

Good thing the guy is using a rake, a leaf blower that size would sound just like a mosquito

I live in a popular tourist area and leaf-peeping is one of the busiest times. So many want to come and experience the leaves. I ask the ones who use my driveway as a turn around if they’d like to experience the leaves close up, and hand them my rake.

I think the joke here is that these trees are dead.

They could have hired Bleeb from “Close to Home” at half the cost.

Hahaha, that was cute.

I guess the is what unemployed Keeblers have to look forward to.

I just want to know if the little gardener comes with the tree, or do you need to purchase him separately?

Just wait until he sees the squirrels

Well, the good news is the little guy isn’t green.

Who do you think models for all those garden gnome statues?

This reminded me of some of Charles Adams’ cartoons, but his were done “darker.”

I love all the funny comments here. Thanks for the laughs.

Thank you, Wiley. You made me smile and feel happy. And it was safe to read the comments.

Pictured is moments after his come-on line, “Hey, Gorgeous, come here mulch?” to the exiting lady totally crashed.

These bonsai are deciduous, but could be evergreen with the right sort of tree. Never heard of a conifer, though, which would grow too tall for a pot.

Bonsai trees with a bonsai gardener.

What a wonderful silly joke! Thanks for the lol.

Bonsai husband?

Only you can prevent forest fires….rake those leaves.

It’s the little things
