Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 30, 2012

Here liesPigWe loved him wellExcept for RatWho gave him Heck.

…I dunno, it still needs something.

Rat, that’s perfect!

“Bury me face down so the whole world can kiss my -.”

What army was Major Fanny in, anyway?

Beetle Bailey’s

Was Major Fanny the father of Pig’s only true love, Sweet Fanny?

But pigs don’t need grave sites…

Here lies our PigOur team’s FiretruckFor which our RatDidn’t give a ….Need a rhyming word, help please.BTW I failed HS poetry, and this is my first attempt in 41 years. I guess it shows.

Can’t help but think of this…

Proof this isn’t taking place in the U.K. - I think. . ..

Rat would probably say as he put Pig’s body in a frying pan;“Bake on, Pig.”

Used to rush to defend the weak and harass the stupidly comfortable…etc. So I can identify. Of course later on I got so understanding! I still have a list of kickables, but mostly I’ve never met them. My,my…if only smacking jerks weren’t lumped under the penalties for fighting in public, assault, etc.

How much more socially productive my life could have been…

Bad pun in today’s “Mother Goose and Grimm”:http://www.grimmy.com/comics.php

I feel ad for you pig, jest another link in the sausage . . . ☻

“That’ll do, Pig. That’ll do.” :) Am I the first one to think of that?.Mine could be:

A little weird,but basically harmless,and he meant well.

LOL LOL!

Well what else did you expect from Rat?

xxx

When was that Rat?

FINALLY!!!!!

Mine’s going to read “Dude! Hold my beer and watch this.”

who buries a pig? except maybe at a luau

LOL

who here caught the misspelling if you get these emailed?Pig’s first panel “…OWN OWN Epitath…”

And that greatest of all presidents didn’t include his many inventions, masterly farming, world travels, deeply informed intellect, architectural genius, wine collecting, etc. Of course he also left out the not insignificant matter of his handling of slavery and his slave family.

A Final Haiku

I must leave you nowOverall it’s been awesomeBut life must go on

Lived – did some stuff – Died

Everyone will look at Rat’s gravestone and ask why he kpt kicking himself in the fanny.-—

Best epitaph I ever saw was in Old Granary Burial Ground in Boston

“As now you areSo once was IAs now I amSo too shall you be.”

“Come closer so I can look up your dress.”

Here lies pig, his life was taken.But man oh man, he is some tasty bacon!
