When I was about 17 years old, a man asked me how to get rid of a tic. He figured I’d know, since I was in the Boy Scouts. I told him two methods I’d learned. The first was to put oil on the tic, so it couldn’t breath, and would have to pull it’s head out of your leg to breathe. You can use any kind of oil – sewing machine oil, olive oil, motor oil, or whatever else you have. The second method is to light a match, let it burn for a while , then put it out and touch the tic with it. It will then try to get away from the heat.
The guy said he didn’t have any oil, but he had aftershave. Would that work? I said I didn’t know, so he tried it. It didn’t work, so on to method two. A few seconds later I was yelling “You’re supposed to put the match out first!!” and everybody in the room (except they who’s leg was on fire) was laughing their head off.

That’s a very smart plan.

If these birds can fly, then Snoopy needs to be the only one worried.

Good thing Linus wasn’t there, or he’d have mentioned queen snakes again.

I look at a lot of comic strips, where others vary, Peanuts always makes me laugh.

Apparently avoiding snakes is old hat to the birds.

Not a bad idea, birdies.

As I mentioned in a previous strip: snake soup is delicious when you are hungry and out in the woods.
In the wild, sometimes you are the diner and sometimes you are the dinner.

They could always just fly away.
