Garfield by Jim Davis for May 29, 2020

That’s a pretty good poem

Lost in translation.

Oh bacon. How do we love thee?

Ok, Which statement was the weirdest and more funny?

I remember in missionary days receiving a letter from a girl from my hometown (well, next town over, but you kind of get the idea) with my name and address on the envelope, but had someone else’s name on the letter itself; the original recipient had my letter in his envelope. When I wrote to my parents of that incident, they were going to tell her during at her older sister’s wedding reception. She then sent me my original letter. (Just casual conversational letter, not a “dear John”, mind y’all.)

I think Liz is off better with the Shopping List.

I was waiting for this kinda comic. Now this one had me laughing out loud!

Shall I compare thee to a roasted pig?

Keep going, Jon! She might enjoy this more!

Stay the hell out of my freezer, you orange black hole….

So does he have Jon’s credit card?

fifty pounds of bacon…otherwise known to Garfield as “a light snack”…

Even fifty pounds of bacon,

Couldn’t stop my heart from achin’,

If I ever lost my Liz,

My pop would have no fiz.

etc.

Go with it John, make it work.

Liz wears too much lipstick

Actually “Fifty Pounds of Bacon” does sound like a poem Jon would write for Liz.

better think of something good and fast Jon, and Garfield be crafty, you’re a cat for Pete’s sake

a couple of years ago my nephew got 2nd place in a state wide poetry contest for school kids in Maryland-his theme was bacon

(hopes this cartoon is part of a serialized story)

Would make a great Garfield without Garfield.

Just the essentials on that grocery list.

Liz’s lips look like the fake wax lips we could buy when we were younger.

How exactly could they get those confused?

Leave it to Jon to ‘ham’ it up with a poem like that.

Garfield shopping?

Considering where meat prices are these days, that’s going to be one expensive trip to the supermarket.

Wrong paper I guess so?

Methinks ol’ Jon has a LOT of explaining to do!!

What’s the next line, Jon? Enquiring minds want to know! :D

Here I thought that was a love poem Garfield wrote.

My grocery store is running out of bacon because of the COVID-19….

Free verse. It is a poem in Jon’s hand.

“Fifty pounds of bacon” is probably a better poem anyway.

Fifty Shades of Bacon, How Do I Love Thee, Let Me Count the Ways, etc.

John was obviously listening to the Hollies and was inspired for his “poem”.

I suspect odie is behind this lol

Better 50 pounds of bacon than “50 ways to leave your lover” (Paul Simon)

Jon has Garfield’s shopping list and Garfield with Jon’s love poem. Two different things. #howcatandmanthink #geez :]

Bacon, Bacon, who’s got the Bacon ?
