    You might have to wait awhile Broomie.

    How proficient is the chef at chicken-punching? Is he a true chickenboy? How long will Broomie have to wait for her dinner?

    Sing with me, “Home, home on the free range ….”

    Oh, give me a plate
    That’ll come not too late,
    So I’ll keep my appointment at nine,
    ‘Cause I am a witch,
    And my finger might twitch,
    Thus giving you causes to whine.

    Oh, oh what dismay!
    I guess it just doesn’t pay
    To sit on this stool
    And then act like a fool,
    Writing parodies day after day.
    (And…that…ain’t…haaaaaay!) :))

    (I’ve become rather [in]famous in some quarters for parodies of Home on the Range, after this format…)

    Free range chicken of the sea, Richard?

    They should have used free range boneless chickens. They’re much easier to catch.

    Wrong comic strip, Richard.

    (deep bow)

    I wrote so many of those suckers on the Poem Fray of Slate.com that I got pretty proficient at the task…:)

    Johann:

    (deep bow) followed by swift kick to the rear end by angry (and jealous?) readers.

    Holy crap! I guess the limericks I’d better quit writing
    The parodies that Rakkav writes are biting
    Home on the Free Range
    Doesn’t sound much more strange
    Than a Cholldekkgher limerick sighting.

    This strip reminds me of Pappy Parker’s Fried Chicken, and the commercials in which the little animated cowboy would yell “Friiiiiiiiied chicken!”

    Anyone else remember this?

    The chef should be on foot and use a wire with a hook on it to grab one of the chicken’s feet.

    Free range chickens aren’t really raised on a range like cattle. It’s just that they are allowed to range on the ground some distance from where they roost at night.

    It is funny when a comic strip writer and/artist literally interpret an expression or term that really isn’t literal.

    I get flamed here in GoComics when I make a comment that relates to the subject of a cartoon.
