    … but it takes 167 of them for enough luck to get out of Spotsylvania.

    I hope Katie doesn’t live next to a nuclear reactor.

    No wonder the T-Rex is always so mean.

    Can’t hold the ice cream cone.

    Can’t stick its tongue out to lick it.

    There was a previous entry in this strip about a woman who found four leaf clovers by the score. She also found clovers with five, six, and even seven leaves as I recall.

    They’ve made it appear that Katie found those clovers just before being devoured by a T Rex…

    I don’t know if it is true or not about the T Rex not being able to stick out its tongue, but I choose to believe that it is not a known fact.

    If you need to keep water to your performances, then there’s something very bad with your drink.

    Short and anchored tongue.. other animals have similar. It’s attached all the way from front to back of the lower jaw.

    But T-Rex was known to moon the occasional gawker.

    …and she laminated the clovers, making key chain fobs. They can be found at your local Stuckey’s.

    Has it been verified they were actually clovers, and not some other plant that happens to have similar leaves?

    With those teeth, he’d only bite his tongue once.

    I’m assuming that “Monster Energy” is a high caffeine, high sugar, carbonated drink. Did you mean to say the makers of the product deceived the audiences into believing that chugging apparently endless amounts of – what appeared to be – their product was a good thing to do? And that the sponsored performers abetted that deception? Hardly worthy of inclusion in Ripley’s collection without some sort of disclaimer.

    Somewhat similar to Katie, Philip J. Fray found a 7(?)-leaf clover of which his older brother Yancy was jealous. Until Philip was accidentally cryogenically frozen and his family assumed him missing, Yancy gave the clover (which he found in Philip’s “Breakfast Club” soundtrack record jacket for his own wedding reception) to his newborn son Philip II.

    My head is too big, and my arms are too short.

    Then how did the T-rex express defiance?

    Who’s been printing all these clovers? It lowers the value!

    A friend of mine woke up with a hangover (dehydrated too) and drank a couple cans of Monster. An hour later he thought he was having a heart attack – I drove him to the ER and it turned out it was a panic attack brought on by the massive dose of caffeine, sugar, and all the other herbal and chemical crap in there.

    I don’t understand the appeal, it’s overprice sugar water that tastes like carpet cleaner and makes you feel terrible.
