The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for July 13, 2012

Mike will do in a pinch.

“Oh wait, we’re out of Mike. Say… what’s your name?”

The waiter would be more efficient if he had all his legs. That has to be the poorest drawing of a Praying Mantis that I’ve ever seen.

I’m thinking it’s a restaurant for female mantises….and there’s significance in the letter placement..

MEN - U

As in “Men U eat?”

Since when are mantises (mantes) are vegetarian? How about verb riposted homonyms?

I feel sorry for the guy mantis. Its such a simple, easy request, yet the female mantis gets it wrong every time.

Prey tell?

I guess Rosemary hasn’t got the thyme.

It don’t pay to eat out at the ole Mantis Gorbe . . . . . ☻

good thing he’s wearing that apron or it would be banned from the comics page.

Gives new meaning to the term " Okay, don’t bite my head off " don’t ya think?

The female and male mantises make love and then the female has the male for lunch-after praying over him.

Lends a slightly different meaning to giving and getting some, no? Talk about role reversal!
