Happy President's Day! Today I celebrate the president I share a birthday with, thirteenth president, Millard Fillmore (not to be confused with right-wing, unfunny newspaper comic duck, Mallard Fillmore).  Fillmore's major legacy involved staying out of conflict with Mexico, Peru, France, Portugal, Spain, and England (and importing guano--bat droppings!).  Fantastic stuff. Now on with the comics!

Barney & Clyde by Gene Weingarten, Dan Weingarten & David Clark:

Hah, always kick it off with a urine joke if possible. Apparently, mentioning bodily fluids is the way to getting thrown out of class.  Hmm, would have been good to know back in the school days. Also, I feel the child's pain here, mispronouncing a difficult word.  Look at panel three and that snotty, condescending look by the teacher.  I've been in that situation, having been limited in my television viewing and learning mostly through reading.  Most words I tried to introduce into my vocabulary were words I had never heard spoken.  It's not easy.  Heck, I wish I were witty enough to have whipped out a quick, distracting joke.

Drabble by Kevin Fagan:

OK, Drabble, you lost me here. A vacuum cleaner, I'd understand. A person walking a dog, sure. Someone turning their car around in the driveway, you bet. My dog goes nuts at all three.  But a water bottle, empty paper towel roll, and sock?  What is that? What sense does that make? Is it just me? Why is a dog afraid of a sock???

Thatababy by Paul Trap:

You're not sucking me in. I'm not making another Caddyshack reference now that I already used Spaulding and Judge Smails earlier this week. Not gonna get into Carl Spackler quotes..."He's on his final hole. He's about 455 yards away, he's gonna hit about a 2 iron I think."  Augghhhhh! They sucked me in.

Tank McNamara by Bill Hinds:

I'm kind of glad that 4th panel got cut off.  "I like the squeaking too." PANEL FOUR: "Not just the shoes squeaking, but the young men and their muscular bodies, dripping with sweat, jostling for position under the basket..."  Look at her dazed expression in the 3rd panel.  Yup, good thing that missing 4th panel is not there. 

Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley:

Muppets as dangerous pinkos.  I love it. Bucky Katt is on fire.  This is gonna be a great week at Get Fuzzy!

It's only Monday! Have a great night, everyone.
