Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for August 28, 2023

Just how does a pause become pregnant?…..

That would make a nice headline, Shoe.

A female pause may be bearing…

It’s just the eggplant that he had for lunch making its presents know to that old bird.

If only their pregnant pauses would last for 9 months.

And it was aborted just before six weeks.

Good one.

Senator Belfry for Prez! (A 5th-party candidate. )

Was it a large pause or a menopause?…

I wouldn’t take pregnancy too seriously. No matter how hard you try, you’ll never get out of it in one piece.

A pregnant pause is a technique normally used by comedians, Jack Benny was really good at it. In Belfry’s case he probably just forgot was he was talking about.

And I’ll bet not one of them produced a single thought. . .

And, it “shows”!

Worry not about the pregnant pauses but the birth that follows.
