Birdbrains by Thom Bluemel for November 15, 2010

Only one time though!

Good Morning, Everyone!

Lot’s of faces in the 3 clouds of “Poof”

“Welcome to Heaven! How did you die?” “I gave at the office.”

Judging from the guy in the back, it could have been methane!

Nice art today! Turns out that you don’t really burn out - you disintegrate.

As demonstrated, you can’t keep it up all the time.

Yes, great artwork, Thom, as always

But no one has a coffee cup, Clark Kent, so it couldn’t have been the nuclear coffee.

He gave a 110% and now he gone fission for the rest of the day.

Working with him was a blast.

That’s why I don’t try to use all my energy, look how quickly it burns up.

I first feared fearless leader Thom’s bain had exploaded…..

Now there is a Poof for you!

Smiley face in cloud on left.

He was a mathematician, until he gave 110%, and his mind imploded from the contradiction…

Birdbrainiacs !!

Thank you for the kind comments. Today’s cartoon is a reminder about giving too much during the holidays… be careful not to explode in the spirit of giving…

Thanks again for reading this overheated cartoon!

Drink more Nuclear Coffee!

Thom

P.S. Good catch, Montana. :)

“It’s better to burn out, than to fade away. My my, hey hey.”

Thanks Thom, Sometimes we try to give more than possible, because it is still expected, but I am totally strained and now that SSA may not have any cost of living increase yet ANOTHER year, while my utilities, insurance, cable and all else increase enormously, it will be difficult to continue gifts to grandkids (and I’m strained by upkeep on my house). I’m KEEPing all the RMDs from my various retirement programs just to pay bills.

Thank you Thom,

Is there a cure?

Thank you Thom,

Is there a cure?

I actually caught myself looking at cookie cutters! Can you imagine? Those things take hours to do just right. Then someone pops one in their mouth and it is gone!
