I believe her. I was never in a hurry to go see the dentist myself.

Not guilty.

Bleeb is GUILTY!

I like my dentist. If I’m driving slowly, it’s only because the freeway is backed up…again!

You can get a bumper sticker that says, “I’m only speeding ‘cause I gotta poop.”

Is Bleeb lying in bed?

Going to my dentist regularly, all just part of the drill on my schedule.

Candy bar! I’m going to get a candy bar!

Likely story!

Why is the judge’s gavel clown/comedy sized?

Case Dismissed!

What I wanna know is if she’s testifying, why’s the bailiff on the witness stand?

Technical question… At first, I thought the flag was colored that way because it was a support for law-enforcement officers (thin blue line flag), but noticed the star field was blue. I wonder if these cartoons are drawn in black and white and get colored later in some venues?

Who do you think the judge will believe you are that fine officer sitting there

Case dismissed.

Admit it! You were speeding, because you are addicted to laughing gas. ( gasp in the court room ) I rest my case.

“The court hereby rules in favor of redecorating this place with blond wood and a few potted plants, like in that fern bar where we had too many martinis at lunchtime.”

“I find you GUILTY and hereby sentence you to gnarfel the Garthog!”

Send her to see Dr. Zell, instead of her regular dentist.

The judge looks like Walter Matthau
