HEY, GOAT, THIS IS MY FRIEND, ROB. HE JUST TOOK HIS MOM TO SEE SOME OF THE WORK HE HAS HANGING IN THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART.
WOW, A FAMOUS ARTIST! WHAT KIND OF WORK DO YOU DO?
PICTURE FRAMES.
OH.
IT'S STILL A SKILL!
I'M STILL PROUD!

WHAT CAN I GET FOR YOU TWO
HOW 'BOUT A COUPLE OF WHITE RUSSIANS?
NO RUSSIAN LOOKS LIKE THAT.
BEST I COULD DO.

SO THEN YOU JUST TAKE THE TWO, ADD IT TO THE FIVE, AND TA-DAAAA… YOU GET SEVEN.
WOW!
WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?
EXPLAINING EINSTEIN'S THEORY OF RELATIVITY TO PIG.
THAT'S BASIC MATH.
PLEASE DON'T RUIN THE MYSTIQUE I HAVE AMONG MY DUMBER FRIENDS.
SO HAVE YOU WON A NOBEL PRIZE?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RAT?
HOLDING A FUNERAL FOR THE WORD 'SAID'.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WORD 'SAID'?
SO THE RAT GOES, 'COME TO THE FUNERAL.' AND I'M LIKE 'WHY?' AND HE'S ALL, 'YOU'LL SEE.'
NEVER MIND.

SOMETIMES I HOPE THAT SOME ALIEN PLANET ATTACKS US SO THAT EVERYONE ON EARTH HAS TO WORK TOGETHER AND PUT ASIDE ALL THE SILLY BELIEFS THAT DIVIDE US.
THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT, PIG.
SORT OF LIKE HOW THE FONZ AND MR. KOTTER AND CHARLIE'S ANGELS ALL PLAYED FOR THE SAME TEAM ON "BATTLE OF THE NETWORK STARS!"
BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT RUINED.
WEREN'T C.B.S. AND N.B.C. BATTLING AGAINST THEM?
OH, I HATED C.B.S.!

WHAT'S WITH THE RING?
IT'S FROM COLLEGE. I WEAR IT SO THAT WHEREVER I GO, I CARRY A MEMENTO OF WHERE I SPENT THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE.
THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA.
YEAH. WHAT WOULD IT BE FOR YOU?
YOUR BARSTOOL DOESN'T COUNT.
IT IS A LITTLE HEAVY.

HEY, BENNY THE BEACH BUM, HOW GOES IT?
GOOD. JUST SITTING HERE ON THE BEACH.
DON'T YOU EVER HAVE ANY AMBITION TO DO ANYTHING?
LIKE WHAT?
LIKE GETTING A JOB.
WHY?
TO MAKE MONEY.
WHY?
SO YOU CAN BUILD UP YOUR SAVINGS AND ONE DAY RETIRE.
WHY?
SO YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT... YOU KNOW, RELAX, HANG OUT... SIT ON THE BEACH.
YOU'RE THE MOST BRILLIANT HUMAN ALIVE.

LOOKS LIKE THE WORLD'S BEES ARE DYING OFF. THAT'S GREAT BECAUSE IT MEANS NO MORE BEE STINGS.
NO BEES -- NO POLLINATION. NO POLLINATION -- NO FOOD SUPPLY. NO FOOD SUPPLY -- WE ALL DIE.
YOU ALWAYS FOCUS ON THE NEGATIVE.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, PIG?
THIS BASEBALL CARD DEALER HAS GIVEN ME THE BURDEN OF TAKING CARE OF HIS 1909 HONUS WAGNER CARD. IT'S A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY.
SO WHY ARE YOU DOING IT?
BECAUSE HE PAYS ME. AND IF I DO A GOOD JOB, I'LL GET AN EXTRA CHECK AT THE END OF THE YEAR.
SO IT'S A HONUS ONUS BONUS?
A NEW LOWNESS.

YOUR PARTY LAST NIGHT WAS A BIT LOUD, NEIGHBOR BOB.
I HAD FRIENDS OVER. WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?
DIE BOB.
DIE RAT.
THIS IS A NO-FLY ZONE, BOB.
TELL IT TO THE DRONE, RAT.

RAT HAS BEGUN SELLING THE PENTAGON'S SURPLUS DRONES TO REGULAR FOLK TO THREATEN THEIR UNFRIENDLY NEIGHBORS.
PASS THE KETCHUP OR ELSE, BOB.
STAY OUT OF MY AIRSPACE, @%#*!$#.
BUSINESS IS GOING WELL.
OMELETTE WAS COLD, FRED. I'M BOMBING TABLE FOUR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RAT?
SELLING SURPLUS DRONES I BOUGHT FROM THE PENTAGON. THEY'RE FOR REGULAR FOLK.
TO DO WHAT?
SPY ON BAD NEIGHBORS. INTIMIDATE THEM. OR IF YOU JUST CAN'T SEE EYE-TO-EYE, LEVEL THEIR HOUSE.
YOU'RE INSANE! WHO WANTS TO USE A DRONE TO LEVEL THEIR NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE?!
YOU REALLY UNDERESTIMATE PEOPLE.
I HAVE A COUPON FOR THE HELLFIRE MISSILES.

GONNA GET
THAT?
NO. IT'S
JUST THE
HOUSE
PHONE.

NUMBER.
WHEN DID OUR
HOME PHONE
BECOME THE
LEAST EFFECT-
IVE MEANS OF
REACHING US?
I JUST
KEEP IT IN
CASE I EVER
NEED TO
STRANGLE
SOMEONE.

HEY, GOAT, IT'S ME, RAT. IF YOU'RE STILL GOING TO DINNER AND THE BARS WITH ME TONIGHT, I'LL PICK YOU UP AT 7:02.
7:02? WHY NOT JUST 7:00?
BECAUSE EVERYONE IS OBSESSED WITH SETTING TIMES THAT END IN -00, -15 OR -30, WHICH IS STUPID BECAUSE 7:02 IS AS VALID AS THOSE OTHER NUMBERS. SO END THE MINDLESS CONFORMITY AND JOIN ME IN THE REVOLUTION.
UH. I CAN DRINK TIL 11:00.
TOO BAD. I'LL BE OUT 'TIL 1:16.

DID YOU KNOW THAT THE HIGHEST PAID STATE EMPLOYEE IN 39 STATES IS EITHER A FOOTBALL OR A BASKETBALL COACH?

I HEAR YOU WENT TO THE DODGERS-GIANTS GAME. WHAT WAS THE SCORE?
GIANTS WON 4-2.
HOW CAN THEY WIN?
I SAID THE GIANTS HAD ONE MORE RUN THAN THE DODGERS, SO-
AND RIGHT, THE DODGERS, TOO?
THAT MAKES NO SENSE! DID YOU AT LEAST HAPPEN TO SEE HOW MANY RUNS THE GIANTS SCORED IN THEIR FOUR?
FOR MY BET, I HAVE BIG MONEY ON THIS.
THEN I HOPE THAT'S THE NUMBER I NEEDED. BE RIGHT BACK.
I JUST TOLD YOU. I WILL BE FINED. ASK MY GERMAN FRIEND, HANS.
FINE. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY RUNS THE DODGERS SCORED?
NEIN!
YOU JUST SCORED ME $100.
I SAID IT'S FOUR-SOMETHING.
DUDE, JUST GIMME THE RIGHT DODGERS GIANTS SCORE AND - UNLESS YOU ALREADY HAD FOOD AT THE GAME.
ATE NOTHING.
WHY DID HE GIVE ME NOTHING?
MEEEE.
AHHHHHHHHH!!!
I WAS TOO UPSET THE DODGERS HAD WON.

LOOK AT THAT BIRD SITTING ON THE AUTOMATIC SPRINKLER.
YEAH, THAT'S BENNY THE FLIGHTLESS ROBIN.
WHY'S HE JUST SITTING THERE?
HE'S HOPING THAT ONE DAY THE SPRINKLER WILL TURN ON AND POP HIM UP INTO THE AIR, GIVING HIM THE ILLUSION OF FLIGHT.
THAT. AND IT'S CHEAPER THAN A BIDET.
THAT'S BOTH SAD AND REVOLTING.
A LITTLE PRIVACY, PLEASE.
