Mother Goose and Grimm by Mike Peters for December 31, 2024

What I plan on right after I finish my comics.

A real thigh-slapper. I’ll bet no other cartoonist thinks of this today.

They’re so excited — they were so excited, they wore themselves out.

Won’t lie. Been there, definitely done that.

“missed it by that much!”

I will be in bed between 9 and 9:30 tonight.

Hey, where’s Sumo or does he only celebrate the oriental new year?

That’s what happens when we used to wait for the ball to drop at Times Square. Now we don’t even try.

Mother Goose and Grim and The Duplex must be sharing notes

Amateur night — they’ve taken the right direction.

I’m going to quit speed reading, I first thought the word was excrement.

in reality, it is tough to go to sleep early on New Year’s Eve because of all the dadgum fireworks

how does that song go, “nothing changes on news years day” (U2)

Real party animals.

Retirement community here, that would be my neighbors at 9 pm.

The one thing that we can count on is regardless if we’re awake to see 2025 come in ……… when we wake tomorrow morning …… it will be January 1, 2025 …… Happy New Year ….. to everyone ….. :)

Aren’t we all that way?

If enough of us don’t count in the New Year, will we get a replacement old year?
