Birdbrains by Thom Bluemel for March 31, 2010

Good Morning Birdbrainiacs! Dudes, I see a hungry bear!

Lewreader, I see a face on the top of Topak’s spear, on the dude’s garment and on the cave wall right above Topak’s head. There might be more, but my eyes are too tired. Send me your shrink’s bill, I still have some virtual cash.

But obsidian is is shiny and sparkles.

Good Morning Thom & Everyone

They said Dude back then? For that matter, they spoke english?

They didn’t have spell check either, I thought it was ‘paleolithic’.

GRUNT= (Dude, follow my lead and let the chips fall where they may!)

There’s a face in the pine tree, but it’s looking away from you right now so you can’t see it…

iSpear. There’s a forge for that.

Make sure that Topak gets the point.

i can’t bear it. celecca & DFrog have taken the lead in the pun race.

chasm_b,

Thanks for checking the spelling on ‘Paleolithic’.

You are correct, of course, though I’m concerned that historically, people of the Stone Age probably didn’t worry much about their spelling, so… no, that won’t work.

I’ve sent in the correction and thank you for catching my error and making my embarrassment international. I hope you were duly offended by the error - I’d be offended if you weren’t.

Of course, I am THE birdbrain, so I’ll use that excuse.

And thank you all for reading this stoned cartoon.

BTW, Doc, still working on my atl atl. :)

Thom

@Thom (aka “The Blue”), I’d take offense, but I might have to pay for it…

Put it back, bunnyface

Flint is the new black volcanic glass.

Topak is holding a shrunken (stone) head in his right hand. The bear isn’t hungry- he’s angry.

Thom- Good hisorical insights today. Very offensive too.

Grog What age are you from? You speak English!

Geez, Thom! Here I thought you intentionally had misspelled the word. Now I am offended that I was tricked. I think. Maybe. Well anyhow, I am offended.

BTW–Thanks for putting up with this rocky bunch!

Chief Thom Thom didn’t misspell anything, guys!

Only sometimes is the word found as “paleolithic”. Usually it isn’t.

Johanan–How come the “other” spelling doesn’t show up in the dictionary?

it only shows up in the dicthionary!

Because the “other spelling” is so rare, I guess. Maybe it’s because it’s, uh, Paleolithic as well. :))
