Does the Poodle know Mario?

(squirrel)

I don’t think anyone was Raven for that joke.

The kid’s got Poe-tensile.

Or, in this case, “The Pet On The Pendulum”.

I agree with the principal. That was lame.

Rats!I thought “Travels with Charley” made more sense!A “pet” doesn’t have to be a poodle… and the “pendulum” in the story isn’t a playground swing.

But Charley really WAS a standard poodle, who went on adventures with Steinbeck…and school is always an adventure for Caulfield.

Fairportfan… meant to say….my “comedy” often dies.I guess it’s just taking the easy route.

Maybe he would have been more appreciative if Caulfield brought in a Cask of Amontillado?

He’d have a harder time bringing a black cat.

Well, if you want a Poe excuse for easy comedy, you could always go with The Tell-Tale Fart. Doesn’t get much easier than that! Susan, I love the avatar! Does your wand have spell check? Happy haunting, and fly safe, my friend! Happy Halloween, everybody!

Try the veal and don’t forget to tip the wait staff.

Two panels, three groan worthy jokes. Yikes!

This has truly been a Shaggy Dog Story…

then, of course, there is F. Scott HISSSgerald’s“The Great Catsby”

I like it!

It cold have been worse. I wonder what his rendition of the “Tell-tale Heart” would have been like. Happy Halloween!

It doesn’t get easier Califield.

Haha love this!

When life gives you Sandy…

Frazz.

So much for us Steinbeck fans!

Jef,Obvious of not???? Who cares…….what a Halloween chuckle!!Dave

“I’m just a Poe boy, nobody loves me.”

He’s just a Poe boy from a Poe family… got this off FB a while back.

I still don’t believe Caulfield’s intent wasn’t Steinbeck.
