WHAT'S EVERYONE ELSE DOING?
WELL, THEY HAVE ONE BIG BOX OF STEREOTYPICAL COMIC EYES STILL LEFT... YOU KNOW, SHOCKED EYES, EVIL EYES... THAT SORT OF THING... AND I GUESS THEY'RE JUST RANDOMLY HANDING THEM OUT.
BUT WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU GET STUCK WITH EYES THAT DON'T MATCH YOUR PERSONALITY?
GOOD QUESTION, YOU $$$%@#&%.
I'M SCARED. HOLD ME.

I THINK ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS NOW-A-DAYS IS THAT WE HAVE NO SENSE OF COMMUNITY. NOBODY CARES ABOUT ANYBODY ELSE.

HEY, TO HECK WITH HER, BOB. IT'S WHAT'S IN HERE THAT COUNTS.
AWW, THANK YOU, RAT...I GUESS I DO HAVE A PRETTY DECENT HEART.
HEART?...I THOUGHT THAT'S WHERE YOU KEPT YOUR WALLET.
NEVER MIND.

Danny Donkey stood on the edge of the cliff and pondered the end.
The end of the headaches and the stomach aches.
The end of the bills and the calls.
The end of the half-truths, the lies and the outright frauds.
The end of all that is bad.
And threw his lawyer over the cliff.
THIS IS NOT AN APPROPRIATE CHILDREN'S BOOK.
BUT I WROTE SUCH AN UPLIFTING ENDING.
YAY FOR DANNY! YAY!

What dat sound?
I DON'T KNOW... IT SOUNDED LIKE A DOOR BREAKING.

HOW'S YOUR SON DOING?
GOOD. THAT LITTLE ZEBRA HE WAS DATING IS LEAVING TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL, SO I GUESS HER SPRING BREAK IS OVER, THANK GOD.
WONDERFUL. AND HOW'S YOUR SON TAKING IT?
OH, HAHAHA... HE'S FINE. HE KNOWS IT WAS JUST A SILLY CHILDHOOD CRUSH...
World ending.

MATTER

PATTY?
OH, MYRNA

TELL
ANYONE.
IT'S SO
HUMILIATING.
I WON'T.
I SWEAR.

I CAUGHT
JUNIOR
DATING
A ZEBRA.

SHE'S THE NIECE
OF THAT ZEBRA
NEXT DOOR...
BUT I'VE LOCKED HIM IN
HIS ROOM AND TAKEN

AND COMPUTER, SO AT

WAY TO COMMUNICATE.

WELL, LARRY, IT LOOKS LIKE JUNIOR'S FINALLY OVER HIS "VEGETARIAN" PHASE... I CAUGHT HIM SNACKING ON A LITTLE ZEBRA YESTERDAY.
Hahaha...He cheep off ol' block.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, PIG?
GOAT ASKED ME TO WATCH HIS GOLDFISH WHILE HE'S ON VACATION.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN FOR YOU TO SIT THERE AND GUARD HIM. HE JUST WANTS YOU TO FEED HIM AND STUFF. IT'S NOT AS IF HE'S GONNA STEAL A CADILLAC.
VROOM VROOM VROOOOM
WELL YOU DIDN'T MENTION HE LIKED JOYRIDING.

WHEN YOU DIE, ARE YOU GONNA BE A BIG FAT IDIOT AND PUT "CREATOR OF 'PEARLS BEFORE SWINE'" ON YOUR TOMBSTONE?
WHAT'S IDIOTIC ABOUT TAKING CREDIT FOR CREATING A COMIC STRIP?
NOTHING'S WRONG WITH TAKING CREDIT FOR A COMIC STRIP... THE IDIOTIC PART IS TAKING CREDIT FOR THIS COMIC STRIP.
