The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for April 12, 2022

Hamlet’ doubt applied to today troubles.

The devil is in the details

Most likely, the later.

So few bills these days are for less than that, and likely higher than that.

For the last tank of gas?

Looks like mom’s been “shopping” at the mall, again.

I’d be thrilled to get either one. Whatever reason $100 in the mail is a good thing. A bill (invoice) for a hundred dollars? Oh course. That’s tiny. I’m so used to paying $500 $1,200 bills. I haven’t had a bill like that since the power guy misread the meter. Having my son meet me outside on the way in from work too? Well it’s going to be a great evening.

when the mailman roars down the drive at around lunchtime each day we look at each other and say, “oh. good. the bills have arrived…”

Mmmm. Checks in the mail….

Brutus actually knows the answer…look at his facial expression!

The “Epic/Brutal Report” explained in one brilliant strip!

YEP!! When we owe the IRS, they want their money on yesterday, but when we get a refund, they’ll drag their feet sending it!!

I am happy to report that I was able to figure out the simple way to block spam texts on my phone last night and still allow incoming from anyone on my contact list. I was not awakened at all last night and it was wonderful. I wonder how long this will last until spammers find another way to annoy me?

Most likely the latter.

Brutus should have known immediately what it meant, for him it doesn’t matter how you say it, the end result is always the same.

Someday he will be either less confused or more confused. Which ever, hopefully for the better.

Probably the latter but hope springs eternal…..
