Red and Rover by Brian Basset for February 13, 2023

It’s not even in the right order.

Not in order yet. It takes a little extra time to “snap” to it in the morning.

Snap, what a happy soundSnap is the happiest sound I’ve foundYou may clap, rap, tap, slap butSnap… makes the world go round.

Snap Crackle Pop Rice Krispies

I say it’s crackle the crispy soundYou gotta have crackle or the clock’s not wound.Geese cackle, feathers tickle,Belts buckle, beets pickle,But crackle… makes the world go round.

Snap Crackle Pop Rice Krispies

I insist that pop’s the soundThe best is missed unless pop’s around.You can’t stop hoppin’ when the cereal’s poppin’,Pop… makes the world go round.

If rice krispies contained spinach, they would go “Snap, crackle, Popeye.”

What, an actual brand name? The Milky Bones are jealous.

I think we can rule out any Rice Krispy treats today!

Red looks like he stayed up to watch the Superbowl

I dare say, one of the most successful ad campaigns ever! I personally don’t like them much. I liked Fruit Loops, lol!

A visit from Doctor Lick would liven up his spirit. Yip yip yip yip yip

Poor Red! Looks like he could use a little more sleep?

Even the Cereal is off….Monday mornings are ruff

In my comments on today’s Garfield strip, I mention the Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris which led to the TV show TrueBlood. That reminded me that a recent story arc showed that Red’s teacher is called Miss Stackhouse. I have also remembered that there was a teacher called Miss Stackpole in the Bessie Bunter stories and comic strips here in the UK.

LOL… can’t help but love Rover. Sad to think as Red grows older, their telepathic communications will become fewer and fewer. Maybe that is why dogs from our childhood don’t live as long as us – we just outgrow them.

Splat Fizzle Plop It’s Monday

Rice Krispies still do that?

So very true!!
