They oughta put up warning signs anyway. Now kids across the country will be ordering anvils from Amazon and hiding them in leaf piles. Wow, the shipping fees will be painful!
Yeah, great! Now 1. there will be pain-and-anguish counselors for Verne; 2. there will be pain-and-anguish lawyers for Verne; 3. There will be meanness-management classes for RJ (upside); 3. leaf-jumping will be declared hazardous by some agency and parents will be jailed if their children are found doing it; 4. after people have rebelled against the agency laws will be passed requiring that children wear protective helmets and body armor when leaf-jumping thereby negating the pleasure of leaf-jumping. Thanks guys.

I’ve never seen an anvil for sale anywhere. I wonder where one goes to buy one to hide in their leaf pile.

The artwork is really lovely, the anvil not so much.

Must be were the saying “Look Before You Leap” came from. Poor Verne and your “Friends” did not warn you !

Right now my pile is mostly twigs and acorns. It’ll be a few of weeks before it’s mostly leaves.

And then, after the mark has taken the bait, you unleash the coup de grâce…a cow, falling on them from the sky!

This is unusually mean….not in the spirit of the strip. Let’s move on to something else.
