Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for February 27, 2023

Wish to clean? That’s wishy washy.

Hawthorne needs a dip in very hot water!!!

Here is something of interest regarding cleaning the oceans from plastic:

I had a hard time believing Hawthorne didn’t have a ready list of wants but then I realized that list would have been made with the expectation of fulfillment by means of ill-gotten gains. Genie just fell into his lap and he has no idea what to do with honestly-gotten resources. Poor Hawthorne!

The problem with Hawthorn is that if he wished to be the richest crab in the world that would be futile. No crab in the world has anything.

We all know that whatever Hawthorn wishes for, it will backfire.

i agree

How about the Lord’s payer. You could get to the “Your will be done” part before your three wishes were used up; and if you wished them slowly, you might not need to use the last two.

the suspense is killing me I can’t wait for the conclusion of this arc

If the Genie hears Hawthorne make that wish, odds are that he’s gonna grant the opposite of that and actually grant FIllmore’s wish instead.

Nope.None of the above. He’s gonna waste ‘em all!

Hawthorne is upset with all the oil companies, except Shell.

It would be a great wish, but I don’t think Hawthorne will risk it. He knows he’s a dirty politician, and he just might get taken out with the trash!

I’m with Fillmore!!!!

Filmore you should know better than to say such things to Hawthorne.

Second wish is to have the genie grant a wish to anybody that he loves!

Third wish is that the the genie can choose to get out of the cycle of living in the lamp and do whatever he wants to!

If I had a dying wish, that would be it.

Do you honestly expect Hawthorne to do something altruistic?
