When this came out in the paper, it was a week before Thanksgiving, which means it shows up on-line on the actual holiday. That was not on purpose. I was just too lazy to read a calendar until it was too late.
We had some kale chips recently that were actually pretty good. My wife tried to make some at home and, while tasty, just couldn’t get them as crisp as the store-bought ones.
Every restaurant in our town claims to have won the award for “best pizza joint” or “best Mexican food” or whatever last year. Either there are a lot of awards going out, or someone’s lying.
Inspired by my brother, who ordered a taco at a local fastfood place only to be told they were out of taco meat. He asked them if they couldn’t just crumble up one of their hamburger patties and put it in a taco shell. They declined.
Based on an actual bag of “banana chips” purchased at a local health food store. I ate them because, well, I’m a snacker, but they had almost no flavor and weren’t exactly crunchy.
I had a real problem as a child understanding the difference between “peas” and “peace”. Looking back, I’m surprised how long it took me to grasp the concept of context.
OK, the joke is good, but looking at the strip now I think maybe I should have left out Penn saying “Um” because the way I drew it too many people think it’s the bear saying it.
