Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for January 04, 2012
Transcript:
Goat: The crocs are asking the city to tear down your wall on the ground that it poses a danger to children. Zebra: How do they figure that? Goat: They say a helpless child could climb on top and suffer a tragic fall. Zebra: But that's never happened. And they have no proof it ever would. Crocs: Why me got wear funny costume, Bob? Croc: Shut mouf and walk closer to edge, Burt.

Zebra should be collecting all these skins dropping into his yard. He should use the proceeds to buy the crocs a one time offer of dinner equal to his mass, which would be suspiciously crocodile flavored. Potus could do the negioations and the delivery. And Zebra’s new security system and firearms would just be a coincidence.

I still think the wall will fall anyway because the bricks or stones are built one on top of the other instead of interlocking.

Put Guard Duck on the Wall to keep off children and croc interlopers. Or give him a mission to drain their swamp and collect their hides…wait…that sounds conservative AND State Department…or progressives and financial criminals…HELP.The world as seen from a window looking at Pastis…

I second Jason’s movement to add Paige ponytails to the Zebras in order to make them look even less intelligent.

Someone break down the wall. The croc/zebra strips are my favorite, but they’re less funny with the wall there.
