Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 19, 2012

Bennie has strange legs. Who puts Rat and Pig on the stools since they are not tall enough to do it on there own?

Even without shoes, he’s not very fearsome. But then, neither was that bunny until it started ripping throats out with its giant nasty teeth.

They must be from The Kinky Boot Factory.

As well it should, Rat.

Lame. Where is the hidden meaning?

JackH… I guess you just can’t see it, eh?

How can he be bare if he has boots on…..?

And he also goes to the Blue Oyster.

I really did not see that coming. I should know better, but I did not. Thanks Stephan. I needed that chuckle on this fine Monday.

is Bennie the only character who doesn’t have stick legs?

A bare-foot boy is not to be confused with a girl-foot bear.

And I bet Bennie doesn’t “go” in the woods either.

Bennie took a walk on the wild side.

I worry about where these ideas come from, mind expanding drugs indeed.

I climb up treesI skip and jumpI like to press wild fl’arsI put on womens’ clothingAnd hang around in bars (with b’ars?)

They do look nice on Bennie.

Are they electric boots, and does he also have a mohair suit?

The Ratty Horror Picture Show — Coming soon to a theater near you!

What, no mohair suit?

Crampons, Coyoty, crampons!

I love them!

Hope he doesn’t keel over in them.

LOL xxx

Bennie the Black Bear is a sweetie-pie. If he wants to wear women’s pink high boots, who are we to criticize him?

It does make Bennie taller

maybe foot binding will make a comeback.

So Bennie will likely drag down his prey?

So Bennie is very RU-de?

Genteel Bennie?

And for special occasions, patent leather pumps!!!

If a bear (or anyone else) wants to wear stilhettoes, what’s the problem? Yes, he is a right goer in the woods.

Blackwolff — I’m really really really sorry…kinda…. almost.Fortunately, it didn’t hurt too many people…. you’re just one of the lucky ones.(Bmonk will probably share your pain.)

Those are remarkably long legs, compared to is hands, unless he has those things you put in your shoe to make you taller. They have the worst infomercials.

why, this is especially silly today. It made me laugh. Thanks.

He looks a lot like the old PBS character Wee Bear.
