   Is this just general absurdity or is there a joke here I’m not getting? Anyone?

   Don’t worry; it’s just yet another sequel to “Planet of the Apes”. This one is called “Planet of the Apes: Light bulbs are an Ape’s best friend:”!

   I think this means he didn’t have an idea for a strip – because a monkey stole his light bulb…..

   government epa workers hired to protect the environment. new laws say got to change those $1 bulbs for the $15 bulbs so we can eliminate climate change – monkey gets 1 banana an hour – monkey keeper gets $500,000 a year. but additional flatulence from the monkeys will offset the help of the new bulbs so we are back to square one, except the government spent more of our money in useless protection of whatever

    Interesting that it only takes one monkey to change a light bulb.

    How many Microsoft Engineers does it take to change a light bulb?

    None – they declare ‘dark’ the new standard.

    I’d say it looks more like a lemon — today’s strip, that is.

    Good grief, saddenedby, you pay $15 for a flour-coil? Boy, are you getting ripped off.

    Hey, Deering, how about an explanation? We gave it all day, and nobody figured this one out.
