The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 14, 2014

He cuts to the chase, but she still tries to spoon it out.

The knife left his wifeand the dish ran away with the spoon

This explains why we don’t see any spives … only sporks (from a subsequent relationship).

He couldn’t cut married life anyway. She could never get him to spoon with her.

I heard she will spoon with anyone.

Stick a fork in them.

If you’ve got the place, the fork has the tine!

“Mac’” was devastated and wound up on the streets of London begging for the three pennies a day to eat.

The knife wears glasses! And wonder what he packs in his suitcase? Sheaths and whetstones?

It was never a good paring anyway. And with his poor eyesight, he was dangerous to be around. They weren’t too compatible. When she wanted to just spoon, he wanted to poke. Heck. Together, they couldn’t even handle a steak. He’ll be happier when he comes to the fork in the road. Knives and forks always go well together, and he can always find a setting with another spoon on the side. .(And just what the heck does a knife have in his suitcase?)

Knife never thought Spoon would knife him in the back.

He was a dull paring for her anyway.

She’ll probably lay on the couch all day doing Santoku puzzles

..“serration agreement”??? OMG…Go stand in the corner of the internet for an hour!

Nice touch with the Cow/Moon lithograph on the wall!Little known fact: Knife goes on to make a cameo appearance in the “Three Blind Mice” incident.

All these comments are worth gold….er, silver – ware that is. Lots of laughs!

“The first cut is the deepest; baby, I know….”

So, that’s what happened to Mack the Knife.
