Behold, an un-pale horse with no name. Oh, wait. His name is Horace. And he's sarcastic. And silly. And lives in an infinitely expandable world. And sometimes gets slapstuck. And day after unpredictable day he boldly goes where no horse -- let alone a comic strip -- has gone before. Yes, there are sidekicks; a bird, a lady horse, a never-seen neighbor. And if the post-it note did not exist, Samson would have had to invent it so Horace would have yellow panels in which to play. Welcome to the bright side of the world. May the horse be with you.

I get the punch line but I don’t get the setup.

Chas – I’m with you – - – ??? Maybe Horace thinks it through, realizes all the ears are gone and there’s no point in going on.

Kleptomaniac— psychobabble for compulsive thief

Why should Romanians be any more guilty of theft than Americans. Their first crime, in establishing their existence was to steal the land from the indigenous Indians.

Unfortunately Horace couldn’t leave the lecture hall. Someone stole the doorknob.

Just thinking out load here…
First his briefcase disappears
Then his speech,
Then the microphone,
Then the podium,
(Not sure what the ropes mean unless the klepto is swinging thru…. ? ? ?)
Then as kendallclark1973 suggests, he can’t get out because the door knob is gone….! ! !
I will add that he looks out the widow and sees his car is missing……

Here’s what I see gets stolen, in order: briefcase, speech, microphone, curtains, podium, spotlight.

The ropes were behind the curtain.

Hey, me too. Uh, my intention was never to offend the brave, friendly and beautiful people of Romania.
For the record, the line I will now replace was a lame attempt to rewrite the phrase “Friends, Romans, Countrymen…”

You’re dead meat if you need the entire speech in front of you. A 3X5 with key words is plenty. Seen hundreds of paper shufflers lose their place with the aid of Klep Annon.
