Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 16, 2024

Gotta be quicker Pierre: snag the beer and poutine, shout merci! and slam the door.

There were some typos in the message. I believe it was supposed to read Putin and Bear

That would work on the French Canadians, not this Canadian (well maybe just the beer would do it).

I have a black bear that tries to come in my front door, I put a 2×4 against it. It’s a nice bear other than that!

Who did NOT expect to see Wiley bears out there?

Pierre was invited to dinner. as main course.

Non, Pierre, rien n’est sacré en ce qui concerne les ours Wiley.

I believe it was Gahan Wilson who had a whole book of cartoons published with the title “Is Nothing Sacred?”. The cover featured a lot of people bowing down before an idol of the number 0.

Bear Baiting: The Revenge

Now with beer and poutine!!

Apparently, Pierre gets the Yukon Times delivered. How does the paperboy survive?

And there was me thinking that “poutine” must be a word derived from the French “putain”…

I love poutine. My cardiologist doesn’t.

Oh, those are some Wiley adversaries, those bears!

Recently returned from a trip that included Dawson City & Whitehorse on the itinerary. Riverwest Bistro in Dawson City has a Poutine that is great!

POUTINE – Baby sardine [n.] (young fish) baby anchovy…

There will be beer and poutine, but you will not be in a position to enjoy them.

Bear proof windows are nice.

Always love the bears. Seems now Bears are getting slicker. They’re into advertising flyers. Wouldn’t mind seeing some bear tv ads. Gotta be much better than current screen junk.

Poutine is a repellent.

Ha! It’s extra funny because neither of those would tempt me at all. Well, I might like to try poutine. Here’s to our friends in the east: Vive les Québécois!

The sun isn’t going down for three months, and Pierre can’t go outside.

Gotta love those Wiely bears!!

Cute bear party! Carnivorous and beer swilling cute bears.

Looks like Pierre will have to spend another night chain smoking and playing the accordion, after he changes into a striped sweater

Poutine ! Heart Attack on a Plate , French Fries , Fresh Cheese curd , Brown Gravy , What’s not to Love

Pierre should have known the letter was fake. In the Yukon, you would be invited to be the guest of honour.

Merci

Mon Dieu! Sacre bleu!

And then to add more insult to injury, it was Labatt Blue.

Nothing is sacred in Trump world.

I always thought that you need clearance from your cardiologist before they would serve you poutine. Sounds like a heart-stopping dish.

Evil bears.

Hey … Bears gotta be Bears … ;)

Nope, Pierre, nothing is sacred.

To be fair, bears don’t exactly follow human rules…

A not so subtle parable on fraud attempts, Internet or otherwise? I nearly ran into that recently, but I was talked down. The timing was bad as I was having a rough time, so I was vulnerable. I will always be grateful to the person who helped me out then.

Looks like brown bears have taken over the polar bears in Pierre’s territory.

Wiley’s bears are the best!

He should know it’s a fake. Summer solstice is a really big thing in the Yukon Territory, because it’s national Indigenous Day. The big party is in Whitehorse and everyone is invited.

I wonder why it was called Disco Fries in the Diners?…

Note that the Wiley bears are perfectly honest. They were clearly prepared to let him enjoy his beer and poutine before they ate him.

Well, at least they didn’t lie about having the poutine and beer and being the center of the celebration. :-/

Not anymore

At least the bears had the bait to eat later.

Wiley is from Maine, I guess, so he knows what poutine is. I had to look it up. Germans have a similar treat, pomme frites and something.

If it seems too good to be true, take note!

Poutine and an ice cold beer; I may have just joined the bears!

French fries and gravy

Zut alors, indeed.

Wiley Bears are fiendishly clever.

That’s what happens when a hungry Wiley Bear gets too eager.

The bears should just eat the poutine and leave Pierre alone. The poutine probably tastes better.

How’s about some Boudin, and beer?

“EEZ NUSSING SACRED?!” No …

Half the planet has no idea what “Poutine” is.

if I hadn’t visited Ottawa,Canada once I wouldn’t know either

Indeed. Nothing is sacred to the Wiley Bears! I love them so much!!!!!
