Garfield by Jim Davis for December 18, 2011

Jon is lucky that he is alive after taking all the power ouot from the entire block!!!!!!

Jon has ALL the power.

Jon, is that any way to conduct yourself?

The plot darkens…

if the power is out how can they call each other?

battery backup on the phones?

looks like jon won’t have to worry about getting his hair combed just right for their dates for quite some time

JEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

Jon just can’t see the light when it comes to starting decorations like these.

Don’t go to Jon Liz, A kiss might be electrifying

The Christmas tree is supposed to light up your life not cast it in shadow. Get with the program Jon!

do’h

Hubby was checkin’ lights this year and he didn’t know that on string was missing a bulb plug in part, just had the metal connectors. Well, next I heard was a not very Chrstmas-y word.

“….Boop, Bip, Beep, Bip, Boop…” I know that number: 6375809……!!"

What on EARTH?!

LOL xxx

That must of hurt

Amusing, but being a nit-picker, I have to point-out that a finger in the socket cannot shut-off his tree lights, let alone the block lights. Also, it would only shock his finger, not his whole body. Sorry, but my brain just automatically sees these scientific errors. Now, a talking cat doesn’t bother me. I’ve come to terms with that as a basic premise to believe while enjoying the cartoon.

Jon is doing a Jim Carey impression-

Smmmmokin!

Uh Jon? does this mean no lasagna tonight?

@IdahoSpud clearly you are a scientist, because you notice scientific errors while not noticing that, if her power is out, she can’t use her phone…

@eli jeas,corded phones hooked up to the phone company don’t need household electricity to work. the cordless kind do, and (I think) the ones that come to your house over the TV/internet cable, need electricity. We have one corded phone in our house so I can call the power company when the power goes out.

Jon looks kinda scary in the last panel…….he could be in a horror movie…lol

oops…… looks like it feels worse than it looks…lol

luckily Jon and Liz have the only two remaining rotary phones in existence

THE POWWWWWWEEEEEERRRRR

Every phone I know of will continue to work when the main power goes off.

@Kees:That’s so right — Liz will certainly get a big “charge” out of kissing Jon! :)

If the power is out, how come the phone is still working?

Jon face on last panel lol

Wait Liz can’t use the telephone can she if the powers out!
