Sprinkle some dust on the policemouse or better still, fetch Scratch.

Raymond just earned himself some extra gifts in his stocking!

100% and in complete agreement

Good morning Crew!

Won’t that mouse in panel two get in trouble for destroying public property?

IDK. The, I’m Rudolph and this is pixie dust didn’t work for me during my last traffic stop. :p

How would a mouse know about Christmas?

I love this strip.

I love this strip!

How long before we let Scratch have at him?

Victor has a solution for mice.

Good morning crew, in comics-lover news, the Far Side website went ‘live’ yesterday. It’s reprints, but with a chance of occasional new material. (it’s at thefarside dot-com, which I won’t directly link to out of respect to our gracious hosts)

And here I thought the pixie dust came from TinkerBell’s factory and enabled the sleigh and reindeer to fly.

So pixie dust is the old school version of The M.I,B neuralizer?

Pigs don’t care, they just have to make their quota.

From the Admin who takes minutes at one of our Morning Huddles: According to Roger Highfield, author of the book “The Physics of Christmas: From the Aerodynamics of Reindeer to the Thermodynamics of Turkey”, Rudolph’s red nose is likely the result of a parasitic infection of his respiratory system.

Some cops are hard asses. Many are not. I recall with fondness an incident when I worked shift work at an industrial plant that produced car parts for the major automakers. I had gotten off of work at 1 am and after a bus let me off at a stop closest to home I had to walk several blocks home. I had bad arthritis in my left ankle and it had flared up considerably that particular night. I had been limping badly. A cruiser pulled up to me and two officers inquired as to how I was? I told them my problem and they offered to take me home. So I hopped into the cruiser and they drove me directly home. I so appreciated their assistance as I had dearly needed help. I was having much difficulty walking. “To serve and protect”—they certainly served me that night!

I would definitely let Scratch have that rat for dinner!

Time to bring in pest control

WE ALL LOVE THIS STRIP….WE ALL LOVE THE LITTLE MICE….SO THERE!!!!!!!!

Oh good!!! The D-Con is starting to work!!

Next thing he will be arresting Santa Claus for trafficking.

Good evening, Crew!

Well, all this banter doesn’t seem too … season-ly …

Good to hear I wasn’t the only one having trouble on this site yesterday, too.

’Evening, Crew.
