Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for June 21, 2023

Sorry guys that will never pass code.

Figure out which side is not holding the roof up and remove that side.

(clap, clap) Teamwork. Architects and builders collaborate, guys.

How sekret can you get?

Looks like something Red Green built.

I betcha a quarter that Zoe could spell “Secret” correectly.

Looks like Zoe has a spot on her shorts.

It keeps girls out!

Yet more proof Hammie lack common sense!

Get the shovel!

Oops.

A fort without a door is harder to breach than a fort with one.

GOOD JOB, GUYS!!

Love the spelling. It reminds me of a very short story that my very young son wrote: “The wit nits fort the blak nits and the wit nits wun”. Translated as “The white knights fought the black knights and the white knights won”. I loved it. Shows you how daft English spelling can be though

All of this excitement over the fort has caused Zoe to sh!t her pants.

Just like in real life! DAMHIKT

And the Blame Game begins. Already developing grown up traits.

Equal responsibility! (I wonder what the building codes say about “sekret forts”)

All architects need the support of an engineer and interior design specialist.

If it’s really a secret fort it would have a tunnel.

Grab those shovels.Swing those pickaxes.Sever the main water line by accident.Hop to it,kids!!

Ha! Sorry, Hammie, maybe construction isn’t for you… :)

It’s time to pivot, kids.

Is that duck tape holding up the wall facing us ?

Looks like the lawn chair ‘wall’ just by Hammie (Panel 2) could become a possible door entry! … :)

As someone who is connected to the field of this profession, I can and do say truly … I’ve seen similar ‘work’ – Crazily built, too! – Strange world out there. … :)

At least it’s got an Umbrella Policy!

As I recall, the Palace at Versailles had no toilets.

(Corners were somewhat odiferous as people made do as best they could. The Sistine Chapel nearly had the same problem. I think the designs were sent back to the architect with the note, WE ARE NOT ANGELS, hence the two toilets finally included)

Try using the folding table size as a door.

If it collapses, try again – rebuild.

Zoe’s in the fourth grade. I think Hammie’s in the 2nd? They can’t spell “secret?”

Put up a sign that says KEEP OUT. Someone will make a door for you.

Well that didn’t go as planned.

Built as specified, just as it should be.

Next week, a tree house in the neighbors yard.

Sekret fort, the secret is how to get in.

Thought they forgot something! Haha! XD

Here’s a hint, kids: Spelling aside, don’t announce that it’s a “secret” fort. That kinda defeats the idea that it’s secret.

Also, don’t build a “secret” fort right out in the open where everyone can see it.
