Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for January 15, 2025

Good for you Verne. That squirrel is nuts.

I know an old lady who swallowed a fly.

Verne must be part frog. The swamp dwellers have to stick together.

I would say Hammy is out of his mind (if he had one) over this.

Scenario 1

Bob goes to his friend, John Doe, and says "I have an incurable fatal disease. I don’t want to suffer any more, but I just can’t take my own life. Would you take your gun and do it for me? John agrees to help his friend die, and shoots him. He is subsequently convicted of murder and is sentenced to life in prison, in spite of Bob having put his request in writing.

Scenario 2

Bob goes to John Doe M.D., and says ""I have an incurable fatal disease. I don’t want to suffer any more, but I just can’t take my own life. Would you take your syringe and do it for me?" John agrees to help Bob, and gives him a lethal injection. John then gets paid for his services. When people protest against assisted suicide, John answers by saying it’s ok, because Bob put his request in writing.

Am I the only one who sees a problem here?

Jeez…this run is dark :(

Maybe it was an Ameglian bug.

It’s all protein Hammy !

Hammy just can’t accept the Circle of Life.

Doesn’t Hammy eat the “babies” of the Tree That Knows Stuff?

How small does a bug have to be to become simply collateral damage? The whole sanctity of life issue has a problem when you get down toward microscopic size.

Sorry Hammy, squirrels aren’t so innocent based on this recent news story: “Scientists amazed after California squirrels found eating voles”

If Hammy was a human, he’d be a white woman named Karen.
