Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 24, 2012

Didn’t want to be dinner LOL

Burning Keys, I thought I smelled something burning? Mmmmm, Mary Jane?

Sounds like those offers on Craigslist. Croc wants all my personal information!

It worked better than the time one of them lost his keys in the woodchipper. At least this one didn’t gruesomely backfire.

Zeeba never stoopid, Croc.

zeeba’s being ungrateful

I want a T-Shirt that reads, “Hello zeeba neighba, Leesten.”

Love the crocs…admire their tenacity…hope they never give up.

Love the apron

rf_eq… He’d prefer not to be destined for grateness.

eat the zebra dum dum

Clever plan, crocs, except that you stupidly blew it! Now, you’ll have to retrieve the keys yourself (I’m pretty sure they really are in the grill; crocs couldn’t be so devious as to not bait their “trap”). Ouch!

No Zeeba, eet jeest sewr, not grate one….

Once burned. . ..

The problem with the crocs is that it’s entirely believable that they would drop their keys into the grill.

I don’t care if they are stupid and inept as hunters, that’s one thing Zebra would never go near even if it were Rat and Pig.

Just flag him (or it). Replying gives them more attention than they deserve.

yees. zeeba mind much beeter dan croc.

idiots!

Next time, don’t wear an apron that says “Eet Zeebas”.

Croc should have dropped a RUBEN sandwich under the grate…

Zeeba not an ingrate.

Crocs mahbee look fer other zeeba not so smart.

How do we get the Crocs to eat Asian Carp?

Free lifetime supply?

No, wait…“Things go better with carp and beer”….yeah.

I would not trust him either..maybe next time he should NOT wear a “eet zeebas” apron when asking for help.

@Susan Sunshine; “He’d prefer not to be destined for grateness”That caused a milk-thru-the-nose laff.. Love it..

@Alex Winter: I googled the Russian translator, but it didn’t make sense.

Zeeba-neighba already has grill marks.

Plan would have worked fine until Zeeba grilled Larry. Now looks like Bob have to go bobbing for keys.

Zebra’s a very private person; he doesn’t like being grilled by anyone.

he could just turn it off or use some thing else……….btdubs zeeba never said he had skinny arms

reminds me of the woodchipper…

Yup—the not-so-subtle apron just might’ve done the crocs in this time.

If Zeeba jump on grill he be black and white and red all over!

its beyond me why that croc couldn’t just turn off the barbecue, put on an oven mitt and grab the key. those crocs need to think of better schemes

mmmm, zeeba: taste just like dog

He could grab it and then pull his arm out.
