… And now to get him down…

Those mines were planted by the local police.

.

It’s a copper mine field.

OW! I hate ‘Taco-neck’ so early in the morning.

I always thought Rodney flew by the seat of his pants…

Aye SharkNose,AND I always thought that Rodney walked about with both his feet firmly planted on the ground,BUT judging by where I see the damage he’d gotten from the mine,he must have walked into the mine on his hands,with his feet up in the air.Quite a feat Rod lad,nice balancing act….sorry about the mine though. There’ll be lots of coal in that Hun mine-layer’s Xmas stocking this year!?!

Cartoon characters sure hold up well after getting blown up.

I did a cartoon like this once (one long panel meant to be turned sideways when read) and the editor of a paper contacted me to ask if they had to print it that way. I guess I understand the confusion but I couldn’t help but wonder if this happens to cartoonists a lot.

Rod was hoist on someone else’s petard.

This can be frustrating when you try to view on an iPad…

Rodney! What have I told you about using that stupid PoGo stick?

Whether or not or if, but not whether – English grammar!

A minefield before the invention of gunpowder?
