Strange Brew by John Deering for November 25, 2022

Just thinning the herd.

Charlie will get the diller Darwin Award.

Up next: Tide pods!!!

On one of my civilian jobs, I worked with a retired Army general who stated that he once called the MPs when he was stationed at Fort Bliss to tell them not to be concerned with the sound of gun shots in the vicinity of his quarters. “I’m just knocking off a couple of armadillos.”

That’s when I decided that some generals came up through the ranks and deserved their stars. Others married the Congressman’s daughter.

He also claimed to have shot a woodpecker that was knocking away on his roof. I had to go to his house. I told him that I would have no problem finding it as it was most likely the only house on the block with a dead woodpecker on the roof.

What a waste.

I’ve lived in Texas and Oklahoma most of my 78 years and have never seen a live Armadillo. Plenty of dead ones, though.

Texas speed bumps.

That’s why the chicken crossed the road! To prove to the opossum or armadillo it could be done!

Should this be a speed bump comic?

Yet young people did it because it was done in a movie…..

I saw a purse for sale in a thrift store made from an armadillo. Feet and head and tail and all. I think it was fake. No tire marks. Dang, should’ve bought it! :)
