Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 02, 2023

Note to self: Don’t follow signs in Wiley Bear territory.

Love the Wiley bears!

I prefer the bare necessities.

In a few moments Mr. Hiker’s clothes will no longer be necessities.

Now I’m thinking about that song from the Jungle Book movie (the original, of course).

I fell for it, I’d a been bear dinner!

Like in “The Matrix”, the bear chooses between the red cap or the green cap.

Important safety tip: Wiley bears can read and write.

Phil Harris.

Is there supposed to be significance to the two red caps?

Did anyone NOT see where that was going, lol!

More like helping The Bear with his (nutritional) Necessities.

we maintain a steady stock of many 6 month supplies.

Just bear with us while we fire up the BBQ.

… forget about your worries and your strife …

“Look for the bear necessities, the simple bear necessitiesForget about your worries and your strifeI mean the bear necessities, old mother nature’s recipesThat bring the bear necessities of life”…

“The bare necessities of life will come to you!

They’ll come to you!”

The Wiley bears should be an inspiration to us all, working hard to achieve their goals despite any number of limitations. The build paths and make signs without the blessing of opposable thumbs. May they be an example to the 20-something living in the basement and complaining he can’t get a job with his philosophy degree.

Nom.

I aways love the bears.

Life’s about to become unbearable!

Aaaaaacckk! I came all this way for advice from zen bears?

Lunch is here; come on in!

YAY!!! WILEY BEARS!!! YAY!!!

Sorry Wiley, saw that one coming

“Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.”

Yep, follow that trail and your future won’t exist either.

From the looks of the guy’s legs, the bears may have to throw him back.

kind of saw it coming …

Not a lot of meat on this one. They’ll have to flip for it.

I was expecting an IRS agent.

a sucker is born… as food. :J

Predators are mean, cunning and totally self-absorbed. I should know. I divorced one.

EAR WORM!!!!

Consumed by curiosity or bears.

P.S. BEST OF THE DAY!!!

Wiley bears!

That’s why you should always hike with a buddy who is slower than you

The pitfalls of quick and easy “enlightenment.”

I LOVE WILEY BEARS!!!!

I saw trees in the first panel. I knew it had to be Wiley Bears. Always a delight.

Sing it *Baloo!!!

ROTFLMFAO BRILLIANT!!!

Somehow I knew there were Wiley Bears at the end of this.

Look for it.

love them Wiley bears

Two options: let go and fall down the cliff, or step forward to meet Wiley’s Bears.

Anyone who tells you not to think about the future and to rid yourself of worldly things is probably about to pick your pocket.

“…Aaaaaand that’s what I like about the South!”

[cue (b)earworm]

Love those Wiley bears :)

There is truth in this. You cannot change the past and you can only control yourself and your actions. You can help others around you to change your environment, but you also have to respect others differing opinions

There is a video of Louis Prima and his band singing for the Disney Jungle Book animators on YouTube.

Love it Wiley, this one is a real keeper

He would rather have met Fozzie Bear. Wacka wacka wacka!

Somehow, I knew the punchline would be Wileybears.

Affirmation bears. They give seminars.

This is going on the fridge!!

I knew there would be bears at the end of this. Anytime you see signs in Wiley’s forest, go the other way.

Run away!

Had a feeling it was headed that way… someone’s been watching Disney, maybe? ;)

Knew that was coming because it’s a recurring theme.

No worries, looks like they just fed on the last imbecile, yum…

It’s just that simple.

Is it wishful thinking to imagine a MAGA on that red hat?

I always get a kick out of the bears

The Wiley Bear (Ursus Horribilis sardonicus) necessities.

BAR-BA-SOL!!!! what? wrong thread? rats!

He’s following the trail to (literally) nowhere.

“Soup’s on.” Today’s Special: Cream of Zen.

I wish I could remember the parable about the small animal (mouse maybe) who wanted to soar like an eagle. Well, with the Wiley bears, the long trek toward tranquility ends when the hiker is eaten by the bears and thus becomes one with them in their level of tranquility.

Hungry bears.

Baloo, he ain’t.
