Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for November 17, 2021

I’ll bet Berke didn’t expect this strip to come up again this long after the date he gave as the very distant future.

As a Norwegian, though, the date April 9 holds special significance for us. April 9 1940 was the day Nazi Germany attacked.

It’s exhausting trying to be a role model.

I remember when 2014 was a far away thing.

Forearm Bends; just the ticket for lifting that glass at the bar!

Man couldn’t run this today…lol

It’s impossible for me to wiggle my ears. Consequently, I can’t do the second set of exercises.

I was exhausted until 2014 just watching Peaches do his exercises.

there are some days I feel the same as Peaches. Opening the eyes can be an effort, much less raising the left forearm LOL LOL.

Oh, yeah, feel the BURN! I used to look forward to my morning exercises. Now I think of it as buying my body back, on a daily basis. Still, though, gotta do it.

I guess I missed it. I wonder what I was doing?

I love the ‘whooshing’ sound it makes when it went by…

Was this Big Pig’s debut?

I dunno. Seems kinda strenuous for us couch potatoes reading comic strips on computer….

The illustrations have been cropped to eliminate parts of the original drawings (I know there used to be a bug in the bottom of the last panel offering commentary). I wonder why. Is there any place online to view the original?
