Being a pipe smoker, I was immediately drawn to the whale in the foreground – and reminded of a comment I read years ago, towhit: ” A pipe gives a wise man time to think …. and a fool something to stick in his mouth.”
You’re certainly welcome, John. Not attempting to curry favor and have you adopt me or anything, but I STILL have your cartoon of Nov. 15 as my favorite, simply because I have yet to see anything in other comic strips that surpasses it. Sometimes you even outdo yourself…

I don’t get it. IS this a slam against younger people, saying we consume too much?

You’ve obviously never fed a teenager.

According to Wikipedia, an adult blue whale can eat up to 40 million krill (7,900 lbs.) in one day.
But you know how kids can eat, so you could probably double that figure!

I didn’t even know whales had skateboards, until I saw it on the internet…who’da thunk? (P.S. Good one, John.)

Big Pink Mom, you have given me an idea for another Strange Brew. Thanks for the comments!

BIG PINK MOM said “If whales breathe throught their blow holes, shouldn’t the pipe be on the top of his head?”
He doesn’t inhale.
