Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 15, 2018

Junior will have to tell his future wife that his Dad is going to live with them.

That awkward Mother and Son moment

now that you’ve boarded up the door, Larry, how are you going to get a zeeba for dinner as well as the beer?

Touching, in a crocodilian way.

Just when I was about to take Pearls off my list, Stephan goes and does something like this.

Junior should remind Dad that he can bring him all of the leftover donuts.

Larry might not be the sharpest tool in the shed but he has a good heart.

Spoken like a true mother.

Don’t bar that door, Larry! Your son would not be able to go to his job and probably be fired. It’s good to protect your child, but also to let him do his job.

I’m proud of you, Junior. You grew up so fast.

That’s Larry for you; a Man (Croc) of Action!

Crocodiles are especially prone to Empty Swamp Syndrome.

The universality of parental love is clear, then why the separation of families at our borders?

Parenting: the definition of bittersweet.

Yay! A crocs Sunday! When’s that last time that has ever happened in this strip?

I feel your pain in a good way.

Of course the job is helping to clean up for two weeks because he started a food fight.

leave it to Larry to ruin the moment.

The kid is a natural-born salesman – he talked himself into a job at a skool in the middle of July! :-)

…Extra, extra…PBS goes all Hallmark Channel/has a Very Special Episode! Next, Hillary and Trump play patty-cake, sing " If You’re Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands "…

Now that Larry has a bar on the front door, he can keep drinking while watching for Zebra Neighbor.

Could we please lose the stupid hat? Use earrings or something.

Boy, Stephan hit the nail on the head with this one.

If hee go nowhere, how hee going to nab and eeat zeebas and other creeatures, crocky?

my nightmare came true… a “Katy” comic in Adam@Home and the crocs in PBS.

Seeing your child “independent” is a sad thing? Wow -I’d have rather read a pun!

Butt out, Larry! Can’t you see, this a Tender Moment between Patty and Junior?!

I have a soft spot for the crocs. Granted, it might be in my head, but wherever it is I really appreciate the strips with them.

They have been DNA testing the ‘parents’ of the children and then comparing the DNA of the child and finding out that the persons they are with are not the parents of the child they have with them.
