Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for March 23, 2017

I guess hibernation season is over because the Wiley bears are out and about now.

Build it, and they will come for free.

The bearskin coat the lift operator was wearing should have been a hint!

And, later on, there will be a bunch of skis for sale on E-bay

I can’t bear to watch.

Purty bears.

Wiley Bears are so friendly looking, it would be an honor to be eaten by them…sayin’

Ski tips up!

Catch of the day!

Well, so much for there being no free lunch……

Just be glad actual bears are not as adaptable as Wiley’s crowd. His bears are great and smarter than the average human

Yay!! Wiley Bears!!

And the skis make great toothpicks

Wiley Bears ROCK!! ( And Ski, and run chair lifts, and…)

“Salmon Run Ridge?” That’s a dead giveaway…

Love the name of the run. :-)

A perfect end to anyone crazy enough to strap sticks to their feet and try to slide down a mountain covered with frozen water.

Clearly this is a shot at Trump, right?!!! I mean, it’s SO obvious! The bears represent Obama’s Deep State causing havoc…or…wait…maybe the bears represent the FAKE NEWS about Russian influence on the election! Wait…maybe BOTH! Yeah, that’s it!!!

There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. Or in this case, free lift tickets

The cheese in the mousetrap is always free.

These bears look very well fed. Now. From the occupants of the idle skis, no doubt. Maybe these skiers stand a chance.

Just grin and bear it.

Just a note as I’ve had lots of encounters with bears, Blacks, Grizzlies, but no “Wiley’s”. In the 2000’s there were 29 total fatalities to bears in North America, 15 in Canada. That’s an average of less than three per year. DOGS killed 26 people a year on average, and lighting kills 90 a year, and of course, just in the US, guns only kill around 32,000 people a year. Now if the long ago toon from Wiley that I approve of; “right to arm bears” came to pass, there’d be a lot more to worry about.

Also: Wolves have racked up a toll of a total of ONE HUMAN KILL in all of history in the United States, and that one was in Alaska a couple years ago. The story of “Red Riding Hood” is a totally false tweet.

I used to love saving Wiley bears, but gocomics can’t get it together (after 3 months) to allow that any longer. With all the other stupid gimmicks which I have absolutely no interest in, you would think they could at least allow us to save what we’re seeing now.

One of those ski poles is inherently is the north pole…..well, northern most pole anyway…..
