DEPART- MENT OF DEFENSE.
I'M A CATE. I WORK WITH THE CAF AND THE CF ON THE DPI AND THE DCP FOR THE DOD IN ACCORD WITH IDS, NMCS, NIMS AND NDMS.

HEY, EDDIE THE EAGLE. I HEARD YOU'RE THINKING OF MOVING TO EITHER CLEVELAND OR MIAMI. HAVE YOU MADE YOUR DECISION YET?
I HAVE.
WHAT IS IT?
I'M GONNA TAKE MY TALONS TO SOUTH BEACH.
WE'RE EJECTING YOU FROM THE COMIC STRIP.

SIR, THE MIDDLE EAST IS IN TURMOIL ONCE AGAIN. PERMISSION TO MOVE MY NAVAL FLEET TO THAT PART OF THE GLOBE?
WHATEVER YOU NEED, L'IL GUARD DUCK.
GOING TO THE BATHROOM JUST GOT A LOT LESS CONVENIENT.

PARDON ME, SIR, BUT BEFORE VOTING, YOU NEED TO ANSWER A SIMPLE QUESTION ABOUT YOUR GOVERNMENT.
NO PROBLEM.
NAME JUST ONE JUSTICE OF THE U.S. SUPREME COURT.
HARRY CONNICK JR.
THAT'S AMERICAN IDOL.
IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?
PLEASE, SIR. STEP AWAY FROM THE VOTING BOOTH.

DO YOU THINK PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE TO KNOW BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT OUR GOVERNMENT BEFORE BEING ABLE TO VOTE?
OF COURSE NOT.
THAT'S VERY ELITIST.
THIRTY-FIVE PERCENT OF AMERICANS CANNOT NAME A SINGLE BRANCH OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.
OKAY,
MAYBE A SMALL TEST.
OH, AND EIGHT PERCENT BELIEVE ELVIS IS ALIVE.

RAT CHANNELS THE SPIRIT OF RUBE GOLDBERG
Stephan (A) tells a bad pun that nobody likes.
Causing reader (B) to throw newspaper in disgust.
Hitting a random dog (C).
Who gets angry and bites the leg of a random flute player (D).
Causing the flute to hit a very high note (E).
That distracts two drivers (F), both named Burt, who crash into each other and die.
Which Stephan reads about in a newspaper, giving him an idea (G).
About killing two Burts with one stone. (H)
NOTE:
YOU ARE NO RUBE.
YOU ARE A RUBE.
OW.

WHATCHA READING, GOAT?
A WAR HISTORY. THIS CHAPTER IS ABOUT ALL THE CARPET BOMBING THAT OCCURRED.
SOMEONE MUST REALLY HATE CARPETS.
I'M GOING TO READ SILENTLY NOW.
WHO WAS FIGHTING-- TWO INTERIOR DECORATORS?

HEARD YOU'RE SICK, STEPH. JUST REMEMBER--FEED A FEVER, STARVE A COLD.
I THOUGHT IT WAS "FEED A COLD, STARVE A FEVER."
I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S 'FEED A FEVER, STARVE A COLD.'
I HEARD IT'S 'FEED A BEAVER, STARVE A COLD.'
I HEARD IT'S "FEED TOM SEAVER, STARVE A-ROD."
ENOUGH!
LET'S JUST STARVE STEPH ON PRINCIPLE.

I HEARD YOUR EVIL GUARD DUCK JOINED THE NAVY.
YEAH. AND HE’S ALREADY INVOLVED IN HIS FIRST NAVAL ENGAGEMENT.
OH, NO. AGAINST WHOM?
SNUFFLES THE CAT. THE TWO OF THEM HAD A FALLING OUT.
IT'S NOT QUITE THE MONITOR AND THE MERRIMAC, IS IT?

IN THE PAST, IF YOU HAD AN IMPORTANT IDEA YOU WANTED TO EXPRESS TO THE WORLD, YOU NEEDED A TYPEWRITER AND THE POST OFFICE AND AN AGENT AND A YEAR OF WAITING AND A PUBLISHER AND A CHAIN OF BOOKSTORES AND THEN MAYBE YOU GOT A REACTION.
AND NOW?
I'm eating sausage links.

SOCIAL MEDIA IS THE KEY TO EXTORTION.

SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT WHEN THEIR LOVED ONES DIE, THEIR SPIRITS INHABIT THE BODIES OF HOUSEHOLD PETS.
GET A JOB, YOU LAZY GREG.
GOOD OLD DAD.

I SHALL BEAT YOU TO A PULP.

Bob was angry.
I will fly to Las Vegas and that will make me happy.
Near the end of the flight, the flight attendant made an announcement.
We've begun our descent. But to have some fun with a game I call, "Get to Know Your Fellow Passengers."
"Here’s how it works: One person will speak and say their favorite thing about this trip to Vegas. Then the next person will say it to the previous person and then say their favorite thing about this trip.”
"I’ll go first," said the flight attendant. "My name is Katy. I like the Vegas hotels."
The angriest man named Jack stood up. "Hey, I am Jack. The casinos.”
Angry Bob, excited by how much fun he was having on the flight, stood up next.
"Hi, Jack! This airplane!"
T.S.A. officials arrested Bob upon arrival.
FUN IS OVERRATED.

I THINK I HAVE TO GIVE MY HAMSTER AWAY. I DON'T HAVE TIME TO CARE FOR IT ANYMORE.
