Frazz by Jef Mallett for February 02, 2016

Ever consider breeding ground hogs?

Did she finally get a name?

How about “Give to a Charity Day”?Or, “Donate Blood Day”?Or, “Buy a Homeless Guy a Hamburger Day”?For me, today is going to be, “Go to the Animal Shelter and Play With the Kittens Day.”.

This is crazy. Now we will have to keep up with TWO students with actual names!

Happy Groundhog Day everyone!

Happy Groundhog Day everyone!

Happy Groundhog Day everyone!

OK, I’ll stop. Thank you Bill Murray.

Local schools are closed today.

But that might be the snow.

Theodore Roosevelt wanted to bring African hippos back to breed…Was that like the King of Siam wanting to send President Lincoln (male) war elephants to breed for use against the Confederacy?.(Apparently there is a germ of truth behind the anecdote from “The King and I.”)

It would have worked better if Mallett had been honest enough to use “pop tart”, which is what everyone calls them. Only in Batuik’s “Funkyverse” would anyone expect to see (or hear) “toaster tart”. If he was too scared of a copyright lawsuit, then he should have picked something more generic, like “comic book” or “candy bar”.

P.S. Most of the comments above have absolutely nothing to do with this comic.
