Excuse

Mitch4 sends this in: “”It’s an excuse.” *What* is? And *what* is it excusing someone from? Is this a cartoon about bad boyfriend/husband behavior? Or mysterious doctor/nurse/doula behavior?”

I can’t get me no…

  • Oddly Enough, Vaughan Tomlinson
  • 4 Comments

This editor came across this one on his own, and has run it by a few folks to no avail. Anyone??

I’m assuming it’s an “Oddly Enough” but can’t prove that on the web.

Gertrude the Brahman

  • CIDU, Oy
  • B.C., Johnny Hart
  • 6 Comments

Mitch4 sends this in: “OY because it’s a pun, CIDU because the specifics are obscure. “Impeccable” works as an OY because someone wearing a suit of armor can’t be pecked. But who is “Gertrude the Brahman” and does she wear armor and why the expression “knight suit”?”

BillR sends this without comment:
