Cornered by Mike Baldwin for December 20, 2023

They’re both for the chop.

Arm the animals!

Mike, this has the makings of the greatest horror Thanksgiving-Christmas tale of all time. Maybe even a Halloween-Thanksgiving-Christmas tale! Definitely not something that’ll air on the Hallmark Channel!

The farmer and the turkey spent the first 10 minutes staring each other down. Then the farmer remembered he still had some frozen TV dinners in the kitchen and decided it wasn’t worth the risk and went back inside. There’s always tomorrow, he thought to himself. But that night, the turkey saw its chance when it realised the farmer had left his bedroom window open…

Join us tomorrow when we learn what the farmer’s wife discovered in the morning.

Someone has an Axe to grind

Mike did a real hatchet job on today’s comic.

This is an old Far Side.

Come in… close the door and let’s do this!

my money’s on the turkey…

This should be an interesting argument.

I hope the turkey wins.

Things are about to get dicey.

I thought OSHA outlawed double-bitted axes. They are pretty dangerous on the backswing.

Here’s Johnny!

“A chop chop here, a chop chop there, everywhere a chop chop. Old McDonald had a farm until the turkey done him in!"

Be quick, sharp and to the point…he doesn’t have all day…..

I saw that movie in anthropology class: it was called, “The Axe Fight”.

“We’ll call it a draw.”

They have axe throwing competitions in Canada. Usually they are thrown at paper targets. Today, it gets real.

MadMas… Two critters (with axes) enter… one critter leaves (with dinner).

Axe fight!

How about a compromise – tofurky for example?

and gruesome.

This is a better premise than most action movies have.

Very, indeed. My money is on the farmer……

The turkey will win. He has the axe of the Apostles.

Make it look like an axe-cident.

It’s only fair.

Turkey’s gotta point, ham’s for Christmas, turkey’s for Thanksgiving and thanks giving’s over…
