I'M LOVING THIS BOOK ON THE BRITISH MONARCHY. THIS CHAPTER'S ON THE KINGS AND QUEENS THAT WERE TUDORS.
THEY SOUND NICE.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
THEY HELP YOU WITH ALGEBRA.
TUDORS, NOT TUTORS.
STOP. BEFORE HIS BRAIN EXPLODES.
OHHH, TOOTERS. LIKE HORN BLOWERS.
TOOOT!!

HEY, STACI. I KNOW WE'VE HAD OUR TOUGH TIMES, BUT WHEN YOU FIRST MET ME, DID YOU EVER FEEL LIKE YOU'D WON THE LOTTERY?
I FELT LIKE I WAS ON "LET'S MAKE A DEAL" AND WHEN THEY OPENED THE CURTAIN, I GOT A COW.
NO ONE WILL GET THAT REFERENCE!
Moooooooo...

I THINK I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU. I'LL GUARD DUCK AND PROTECT US AGAINST THE BAD GUYS.
WELL, YOU'D HAVE TO TAKE AN OATH THAT'S A LOT LIKE THE DOCTOR'S OATH.
OH, YEAH? WHAT'S THAT?
'FIRST, DO HARM.'
MAYBE I'LL JUST BE A DOCTOR.
THIS HAS MORE INSTANT GRATIFICATION

DO YOU HAVE ANY MORAL CODE THAT YOU USE TO GUIDE YOUR LIFE?
JUST THE GOLDEN RULE.
I'M SURPRISED YOU KNOW IT.
OF COURSE I KNOW IT.
'DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY GET WIND OF IT AND DO IT UNTO YOU.'
THAT WASN'T QUITE IT.
I HAD TO BE CLOSE.

HI, GOAT. THIS IS CHARLES. HE JUST MOVED INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
NICE TO MEET YOU. WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO MOVE HERE?
JUST TO GET AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE WHERE I LIVED. THEY WEREN'T NICE TO ME.
I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT.
YEAH, IT WAS PRETTY SAD. BUT NOW I'M ON SOME ANTI-DEPRESSANTS, SO I FEEL A LITTLE BETTER.
ARE YOU MARRIED?
OH NO, NO, NO... I FEEL VERY SAD FOR A GIRL YEARS AGO BUT SHE DIDN'T CARE FOR ME.
SHE DIDN'T BY CHANCE HAVE RED HAIR DID SHE?
YEAH, WHY?
TAKE OFF YOUR COAT.
GOOD GRIEF, CHARLIE BROWN.
MIDDLE AGE HAS NOT BEEN KIND.

GOAT, THIS IS MY FRIEND ED. HE'S AN AIRLINE PILOT.
WOW. I CAN'T BEGIN TO IMAGINE ALL THE COMPLICATED THINGS THAT GO INTO FLYING A COMMERCIAL JET.

WOW.
WOW. THAT'S A BIG NUMBER.
WOW, THAT'S A BIG PIANO.

WHO'S YOUR FRIEND, RAT?
HE'S AN ANGRY BIRD ON DRUGS. HE'S ANGRY 'CAUSE SOME BIGGER BIRDS ATE HIS FRIENDS.
WHY IS HE ON DRUGS?
TO GET THE COURAGE TO COUNTERATTACK. HE WANTS MY HELP IN KNOCKING OFF A COUPLE OF 'EM.

Dear Mr Congressman,
I know that now you only represent rich people who give you lots of money.
But I don't have any money.
So here's a crushed donut.
WE'LL SEE HOW MUCH PULL THAT GIVES ME.

HEY, LIQUOR STORE LARRY. HOW'S BUSINESS ?
GOOD. MY STORE'S NOW BIG ENOUGH THAT THE DISTRIBUTOR GIVES ME MORE LIQUOR THAN I ORDER AND THE OVERAGE IS FREE.
BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT TO LOSE BUSINESS?
YEP. HE DOES IT FOR THE BIG STORES.
THAT'S EXTRAORDINARY.
NOT REALLY. I HAVE AVERAGE OVERAGE BEVERAGE LEVERAGE.
ARE YOU DRINKING AS YOU WRITE THESE?

LAST YEAR WAS THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF EINSTEIN'S GENERAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY.
OH, YEAH. RAT EXPLAINED THAT THEORY TO ME.
WHAT DID HE SAY?
THAT THEY'RE ANNOYING AND JUDGMENTAL AND RUIN THE HOLIDAYS.
THAT'S MY THEORY OF RELATIVES.
SAME THING?
NO.

HI, GUARD DUCK... WHERE YOU OFF TO SO LATE WITH YOUR 'LIL SCOUT TROOP?

HOPE THEY DON'T GET A MERIT BADGE FOR THAT.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RAT?
CRUSHING THIS MAN BETWEEN TWO AIRLINE SEATS AS A MEANS OF PROTESTING THE CRAMPED SEATING ON AMERIDICTIAN AIRLINES.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST CONTACT THE C.E.O?
THIS /IS/ THE C.E.O.
I'M MORE DELIGHTED THAN I SHOULD BE.
IF HE WANTS OUT, CHARGE HIM A $50 COMFORT FEE.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?
I'M ON THE PHONE WITH THE JOHNSONS. THEY WANT TO KNOW WHY WE'RE NOT GOING TO THEIR DINNER PARTY AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL THEM.
