Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for April 05, 2011

We call ‘em that, too!

I call them something different, but this is a family toon.

When life gives you lemons, you’re supposed to make lemonade. When life gives you cow pies, however, it’s best not to make anything out of them.

My ancestors were said to collect the old dried buffalo-pies for cooking fuel on the trail across the prairies. Yum!

Later… Didn’t U. Utah Philips do a sorta ‘talkin-blues’ song (predecessor of rap) about workin on the railroad, and Gandy-dancin’, called Moose-Turd Pie?

My dog used to leave land mines all over the yard; they could ‘go off’ more than once!

Why do I hear “Yippie eye eh Cow Patti” playing on the station PA?

No, she squish.

That cow with the sword must be a samoooori

“Cows with Guns” is a song played on a local radio station here. This strip reminds me of it.

Once the cow pies dry out, they make great frisbees

Cows … Booby traps … Family strip …. Awww.

Just when you think there couldn’t possibly be another cow/ninja pun, Bilan comes through with flying colors. I’d say you guys have milked this for all it’s worth.

No, Ray C., our cheesiness has just begun. Truly, the mind curdles.

What I don’t understand is why the cows are attacking. Are they just as random and purposeless in their violence as Dr. Mel’s killbots?

The Wonder Warthog had a nice guess, and most of us make a likely connection on the food chain, but c’mon, Ninja Cows, can you write a manifesto or something?

That is one effective-looking cow-tana. The other two weapons don’t mooove me, but I’ve always been fascinated by swords for some reason.

The cows are attacking because they’re Mad Cows! Now Pam is going to be real mad when she discovers the contents of her land mine and kicks some bovine butts.

no, you don’t wish you stepped on a land mine

they ruin your whole day

Brewster is about to face the Kobe Yoshi Moo test, but I don’t think he’ll do as good as James Kirk.

^Hey, DF, maybe Brewster should try the Kobe-rite Moo-nueuver instead.

I think we’ve already done the “milk” pun, once or twice, but I’m sure that won’t stop anybody.

Yeah, Ray, it would be a misteak to underestimate these guys, they’ll cream ya…

BTW, if you go to Mackinaw Island, don’t eat the straw fudge…..

Johanan: Ordinarily you wouldn’t expect cows to be able to write, but computers and Microsoft Word have relieved all creatures from the need for opposable thumbs; at least to express opinions. (Not sure about the weapons.) BTW: I’m nominating olmail for best/worst cow pun of the day.

Only because we gave his sacred cow so much fodder to digest and then excrete (pardon the graphic image)…

Ninja cows? Udderly ridiculous. Soon they’ll be up to their calves in “land mines”. (I only have one stomach for these puns.) If they need help, they should just ox. Tim will eventually re-veal that the only way to steer a fight is to resort to “cow-tipping.” Ok, I’d butter stop now.

It’s time to put a steak in the ground and stop this nonsense. (But I bet those ninja cows are good at karate chops.)

The ambassador stepped forward and shook the king’s hand. He turned to the crowd and said that his country would help their country. The crowd roared “Ingada!” in response. The ambassador said his country would lend them money, and not expect to be paid back. The crowd screamed “Ingada!”. The ambassador said his government was here to help them. The crowd yelled, “Ingada!” The ambassador turned back to the King and said that he was ready to tour the farm the King had picked for review. The ambassador then stepped toward the farm’s field, and the King grabbed him by the arm and said, “Be careful that you don’t step in the ingada.”
