The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 12, 2012

Sure rub it in, Officer.

Tragedy again strikes the Dumpty family.

I always thought he was destined to go over easy.

That cop is pretty hard-boiled, himself.

It was a steno pool and he got in over his head.

It was eggactly what I eggpected.

looks like his sunny side is up

you know when they find and convict the felon, his attorney will file an a-peel

Humpty Dumpty was pushed.

My scrambled eggs sho do taste good this mornin. My deepest sympathy to the Dumpty family. The Lord giveth and The Lord taketh away. Now let’s eat them eggs.

They’ll need a whole lot of potatoes for an egg that big. Perhaps an egg salad is a better use.

@Jim, I prefer scrambled too. My little Fitzroy will share them; he loves to eat a couple of spoonfuls (tho’ he only weighs about 320 gms).

Well, it certainly cracked ME up!

I like mine over easy – in bacon grease.

@The SpanishInquisition – I agree, I think there may be an omlettcidal maniac on the loose.

Oooo…. poorly eggsicuted reverse 2-1/2…^AUS 5CAN 6JPN 5USA 5RUS 9^

has mr patato been notified??

Bet the cop has Paprika spray with him.

“…CANABALLS! you are all MONSTERS!”

Yesterday, The Barn featured Humpty Dumpty, today here. Strange coincidence.

Congratulations on creating a brain-worm Admiral Hilburn, sir. I can’t get the damn thing out of my head and it has had me laughing all day.

Nice wiseCRACK from the cop. And the widow Mrs. Dumpty was with embryo too. Her mind is all scrambled with grief ’cause she ran out of the house naked!

The party hot tub broke his fall. That’s good, otherwise he would have cracked. And then the cop would have added a heavy fine for wildlife poaching.

He may have been pickled. Better test his albumen alcohol content to be sure.

The Dumpty family led scrambled up lives.

Now see..the officer took lemons and made potato salad..

Who adulterates a great potato salad by throwing hard-boiled eggs into it!?!? Yecchh!!!

I came here from Stephen Gilberg.
