Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 11, 2020

Are Rat and Pig trying to tell us something?

Life? I wouldn’t expect Pig to solve Candyland.

First repeat PBS that I remember seeing…. Wonder if there’s a story behind this or if it’s a mistake?

… and nothing’s better than a pig in a blanket.

Ok, maybe a Rat on a Rack.

Beds are very dangerous. Most people die in beds.

However, they have to go out for at least two things, they have to eat and go to the bathroom.

Very appropriate.

A lot of people have been feeling like this during Lockdown.

Just close your eyes, and it all goes away! ♪♫ " Dream when you’re feeling blue/ Dream, that’s the thing to do…" ♪♫

But this only works for one day ;-) … Croc Power !

Nothing wrong with repeats, especially when they are so on point. I have many days like this.

Is Pastis alright?

If only staying in bed were comfortable. I can tolerate about 5-6 hours.

I hope Stefan doesn’t have the Rona.

I don’t know. It’s warm and humid outside.

I’m working from home, but still I have to get out of bed (and be sober) to do it.

Unless a plane crashes in his bedroom, or a meteor

This doesn’t appear to be from June 11, 2017. That day was a Sunday.

Well what do you know? Pig is such a genius.

Rat has ab-solved Pig.

If you knew how many people die in bed every day …

Yes you have

second repeat actually

Stick your head under the covers, I think I hear a burglar.

Hey, this is an old recycled strip! Pastis, you wrote somewhere that you work three or four months ahead of schedule. The people want fresh funnies with breakfast!

this is an old one, if I remember correctly…

Life solved…until you get hungry.

I’m reading this in bed at noon.

Careful with this philosophy or you’ll get fat.

Exactly what went through my mind an hour ago.

This. This is what’s wrong with life. Ever since my injury, laying in bed has become its own flavor of painful. I don’t get up because I’ve had a good night’s rest – I get up because I hurt too much to lay in bed.

Rat will do something that doesn’t involve beer?

Ask Charlie, Wily Wonka…

Now figure out how to afford the bed.

Things are getting dull. Gives us more Larry.

What will you do when Nature calls or you get hungry?

Oh My!

Am I reading Pearls Before Swine or The Wizard of Id?

And yet Pastis avoided reruns when he was stuck in Colombia.

There’s always beer. And cheese.

Heck, I’ve figured that out since I retired. Being a night owl, “noon” for me is the New Two AM….

Pig seems to stumble upon wisdom a whole lot…

Slash fanfic time, boys
