Things are looking up, it’s Tuesday already. ;-)
There’s fresh orange juice for Johnnyd, and a grand assortment of bagels for the rest of you. Enjoy!
DoctorHorrible said, 7 months ago

I’m surprised he didn’t make him think he was a chicken!

yeah, any day that is non-Monday is a good one…I’ll take a bagel and some oj…a toast… to science!
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

I’m a little teapot, short and stout.
Here is my handle, here is my spout.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Good morning marg! Fresh bagels, it pays to come early - yum.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

DoctorHorrible - Welcome to the party! We can use another doctor here, these people is crazy.
pschearer said, 7 months ago

Well, Wink certainly is stout, and he may be short compared to something, but Joan of Arc? I just don’t see it.

(What’s with all this breakfast chat? Careful or I’ll tell you about my bowl of Grape-Nuts.)
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

pschearer - The only way to explain is to invite you to read the last few weeks posts on this strip. You MAY understand after that - LOL.
Akenta said, 7 months ago

Good morning. I don’t see any coffee brewing, but since doc mentioned tea was mentioned I’ll start the water boiling.

I hope everyone has a good Tuesday. Some people at work were talking about Tuesday’s being long or something. I just remembered a friend in high school came up with the theory that Tuesday’s are the worst day of the week. Ever since then, it’s hard to look forward to them. On the up side, tomorrow is Wednesday and the week is almost over.
Akenta said, 7 months ago

DocT, you’re on early (or is it late). Usually you come on with the new strip and then disappear by the time I wake up.
donkeymom said, 7 months ago

Good Morning! I’m not working today so I had time to fix some biscuits and gravy.

Akenta, if you didn’t see my answer yesterday, I live in Hall County. We’re almost neighbors!
Carmy said, 7 months ago

Ugh, he’s drooling too.
Good Morning Everyone, I just popped in real quick for some coffee. Thanks you. I’m still getting the girlies off to school, 1 down and 3 to go. 172 comments yesterday!
Dry said, 7 months ago

Those two crack me up!

Morning everybody!
Dry said, 7 months ago

pschearer You bring grape-nuts you gotta share! I’ll take mine with some honey plese!
Dry said, 7 months ago

Hey doc Details, mister! LOL
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Akenta - I had last night off. Got home and started comic-ing about 2am my time.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

donkeymom - I love biscuits and gravy! Thank you.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

carmy - Don’t know how you do it. I had just the one boy and it was enough work getting him off to school in the mornings.
Dry said, 7 months ago

Akenta we have a dj in this area sho refers to Wednesday as “hump day”, half way thru the work week!
Dry said, 7 months ago

hi donkeymom

We’ve got two new people here. Wonder how long they’ll stick around with our merry band?
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Dry - The details probably aren’t as juicy as you hope.
My lady friend has a 21 year old daughter who is severely disabled. She can’t be left alone to take care of herself. Mostly on my nights off we either hang out at their house or they come to mine.
We really only get two real date nights a month. Grandma will take care of her those two nights, but she can’t handle much more than that.
We talk every night on the phone, she texts me at work on my breaks, and I do get to see her at least a couple times a week.
And every other Friday…..
Nope, you don’t get details about that -ROFLMAO
Carmy said, 7 months ago

Doc, COFFEE, that’s what helps me get them off to school. Right now it’s 3 off and 1 to go. The last one is the one I got keep after. So it’s “HURRY UP, or you’ll be walking!”
I’m glad you had a nice time with your girlfriend. It’s great that she can get a break with some help from grandma. I’m sure she loves her daughter dearly, but breaks are very helpful for the both of them.
Dry said, 7 months ago

Doc Aw shucks! No details huh? :-(

I admire you for hanging in there with her. A lot of people would just walk away! I feel bad for her daughter. Sounds like her mom loves her very much!
Carmy said, 7 months ago

Severe Wind Sends Chihuahua Flying Into Sky Don’t worry, the doggie is okay. This happened in Michigan. A 70 mph gust picked the dog right up. It was found safe (and very happy to be found thank you)nearly a mile away.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Dry & carmy - This lady is something special. I love her mom and both her daughters. I’m hoping that I get lucky enough they all want to keep me around. It’s that kind of family - they’re a package deal.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Joe_Minotaur just mentioned our little party at Pibgorn. We’re going to be famous now kiddies.
Dry said, 7 months ago

doc gotta run over there and check that! Be right back!
Dry said, 7 months ago

Yea, Joe noted our 170 posts!
Dry said, 7 months ago

well boy, doc if I were a bit younger and single, I’d sure look you up! You sound like a prize!!
:-)
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Aw shux Dry - I left you a message at Argyle Sweater.
Edit - and another one on Bliss.
cleokaya said, 7 months ago

Good morning everyone. I caught a bug from my wife’s brother who was visiting us over the weekend. It kind of has the symptoms of food poisoning, but isn’t. And no the symptoms are a bit different than swine flu. I will pass on breakfast. Thanks.
pookid54 said, 7 months ago

I AM THE LIZARD QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
DigitalFrog said, 7 months ago

Good morning all,

All out of limes so I made cinnamon buns instead.
DigitalFrog said, 7 months ago

pookid54 says: I AM THE LIZARD QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

…and it is, it is, a glorious thing, to be the Lizard Queen!
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

cleokaya - Energy to you for healing

pookid - Do we have to call you Lizard-poo now?

DigitalFrog - Thank you.

If all this food was real, I would never have too cook again. Why am I not gaining weight?
cleokaya said, 7 months ago

Thanks doctortoon, think I’m going to do a little lay down.
DigitalFrog said, 7 months ago

Doctoon: It’s just food for thought - your comments carry a lot of weight with us!
pookid54 said, 7 months ago

Nah! It’s a line from an episode of “The Simpsons”.
Anyway, since my family steals EVERYTHING I make to bring here for breakfast, I am making dinner for all you all!!! Or as we say where I come from, you’s guys! Steak pizziola is on the menu for this evening, with angel hair pasta, garlic bread, and some Chianti (no fava beans). I also have lots of cannoli for dessert. I can’t thank you all enough for all these wonderful breakfasts!!!
Dry said, 7 months ago

doc re: Argyle Sweater. Yes, “inqusitive minds want to know!”
Dry said, 7 months ago

doc I replied to Bliss, basically ROFL!!
Dry said, 7 months ago

Okay, pookid has to be Italian! That’s the best blood there is to be runnnin’ through your veins! Just ask me, I’ll tell ya! :-)
Radical-Knight said, 7 months ago

G’day folks, It’s thundering and raining here in Houston. I was just reminded by JFri that I had been a No-Show over here lately and just wanted to remind all that it wasn’t intentional and didn’t mean to offend by my absense. I get on at little intervals but not enough to stay on for any length of time. This little community is comming along quite well and it’s fun and refreshing to see the commaderie and cheer everyone brings to each other. I may not always have something to say, but I do “peek-in” occasionally.
.
An’ keep tha’ Scurvy pirate in line or grog will be rationed to th’ bilge-rat. XD
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

Digital Frog - Most of my comments are junk food, but they’re fun to make.

pookid - That will be breakfast for me, sounds good.

Dry - All I have running through my veins is Norwegian blood, but it seems to be running pretty well.

Rad - Nice to hear from you. We’re pretty informal so you know you’re always welcome.
Doctor Toon said, 7 months ago

As to what I am holding in my hand at the Argyle sweater - I’ll leave that to fertile imaginations……..
Dry said, 7 months ago

well doc I have a pretty fertile imagination, so we’ll just let it go and never speak of the matter again! LOL
Dry said, 7 months ago

Where is Joy and our pirate?
They dropped me & carmy off after we left cleo’s. Geez, I hope she didn’t fall in the moat again!
Dry said, 7 months ago

And that JFri where is he? Probably avoiding me because he doesn’t want to hear how beautiful the weather is here AGAIN TODAY!! Not quite as warm as yesterday, only 84 degrees! :-P
pookid54 said, 7 months ago

To Dry…..nope….not a drop. Pure Spanish blood. Dad’s from the north, Astudias (blond hair, blue eyes), Mom’s from the south, Andalusia, (dark hair, dark eyes). Mom was actually born in Spanish Morrocco and she was a flamenco dancer. OLÉ!
Carmy said, 7 months ago

So * Joy* is missing again? The pirate is missing too? Yikes, I
hope they didn’t run into any gators.
Dry said, 7 months ago

spanish, itallian Mediterranians either way! Hot Blooded!! LOL

Your family sounds like an iteresting mix, dark and blonde. Must be some nice looking people in your family!
pookid54 said, 7 months ago

yeah but I’m not one of them!!!
