Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 18, 2014

…and you don’t even have taffy or soda to go with it!

That would later on explain why the inside of your mouth is kind of bleeding.

Don’t forget the Baby Ruths and lemonade in the toilet!

Was it installed by the Pink Panther?

Hmmmm. which on would be better to eat? Oh, yeah…BACON, BACON, BACON….

Hmmmmm…..I wonder which one would be better to eat? Oh, yeah00000BACON! BACON! BACON! Mmmmmmm…bacon…..

Had to look twice at the last panel, but it seems like their ears are doing the ‘high five’.

Well, if the catastrophe is that the ice caps melt and the world goes up in flames, you won’t need the insulation anymore.

1) The best laid plans of mice and men…and now, pigs!

2) Please see today’s “Ziggy” cartoon!

Gee, Pig, did you figure out that the pink stringy stuff in the attic was cotton candy all on your own, or did Rat suggest it to you? Anyway, now that Goat has disillusioned you, maybe it’s time for a trip to your local bargain bulk food dealer….

mmmmm…..fiberglass.

So, Pig will only eat 50 lbs per day, instead of 100?

*Stephan Pastis* is off on a “World Tour” to promote not one, not two, but TWO new books! “Timmy Failure: Now Look What You’ve Done,” and the latest “Pearls Before Swine” collection, “Pearls Falls Fast.” We talk about life on the road, how he creates his successful “Timmy” books, and how easy it is to get on the bad side of theme park attendees when you make them stand around and wait as you take photos on a popular rollercoaster for an hour.Tall Tale Radio http://www.gocomics.com/tall-tale-radio/2014/02/27

So much for the insulation in the basement too. :(

I’m afraid so, Pig.

Well with the drought thinning cattle herds and the baby pigs dying like flies from some virus, all we need is a good bird flu and meat will be too expensive to buy. Civilization and food security is such a fragile thing that’s best not thought about too long.

Food runs out im the PBS world, Rat walks to pig, takes out knife, STAB, “Yum BACON!”

I’m constantly amazed at how prescient these are

I worry about a global catastrophe bringing on the sixth Extinction Event.
