Strange Brew by John Deering for July 23, 2010

But plumbers make mo money!

Too bad, Mario, maybe you and Luigi could hit the doctor on the head a couple of times with a pipe and/or a hammer to convince him to leave the princess alone. Wouldn’t that be super.

I must be living a super sheltered life. Today’s offering totally escapes me…………..

Super Mario Brothers: Nintendo game characters.

Their names are Mario Mario and Luigi Mario.

Be thankful she is not going out with a priest!

I know about Super-Mario Brothers and STILL don’t understand the doctor part. Anyone?

Ah, makes sense. Thanks, Minky Moo.

Mario was also a Dr.

I hope it wasn’t Dr. Wily!

Now we know why they later made a game called Dr. Mario, although he seemed more a pharmacist than a doctor.
