I suppose that means that poor Opus can no longer claim to be a card carrying liberal…

And I’ll bet that the library has removed all the books on Penguin Lust, too.

When you’re too immoral to the inside traders, you really should rethink your lifestyle.

Lest you end up as a lawyer, or something.

I guess wife-swapping is bad, too, but it’s all about perspective.

They will probably remove all the band books next. I so wanted to read up on Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Duran Duran and Jethro Tull.

”A GANG OF WIFE-SWAPPING INSIDE TRADERS!”

Hahahahahah!!!!!

I don’t know about the rest of you, but the greediest of the greedy inside traders figured out the best way to gain wealth was to become a politician.

Everything is fine, then one day you wake up to find you’re at the bottom of the barrel.

“Wife swapping” – horrible expression. Seems to imply wives are possessions with no free will. Ugh.

“You know what the most dangerous thing in America is, right?

Penguin with a library card.”

— Brother Mouzone, The Wire, Season 2, sort of.

His Blockbuster membership was cancelled

Kind of like when the Mafia, speaking of the actions of some certain politicians, says, Hey – we wouldn’t do that!

Not the card! Wait… go on line O.

ime, librarians are down with the freakydeaky. ymmv

NOOOOOOO!!! The cruelty!

Is this comic strip from 1988? If so, Gocomics has left out some of the strips. Here are three strips from Jan. 21, 1988, to Jan. 23 1988. They mention NASA, and the Russian space program.

Look at each one, and see if you have seen these before.

Battered from all sides, now deprived of his precious library card, Mr. Penguin Opus must never give up. Never give up!

Fight fiercely, Opus!
