    Time to make like a rabbit:

    Rabbits are like human beings in many ways. One of these is certainly their staunch ability to withstand disaster and to let the stream of their life carry them along, past reaches of terror and loss. They have a certain quality which it would not be accurate to describe as callousness or indifference. It is, rather, a blessedly circumscribed imagination and an intuitive feeling that Life is Now.

    ~Richard Adams

    “More than at any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.” — Woody Allen, “My Message to the Graduates”

    If the message is to run away from Rat, it’s really apt.

    It’s April 15th, when we give thanks to the 1%, big corporations and lobbyists, for letting us contribute to their government….

    That doesn’t even help, Rat, since there is no place left to run…..at least until they perfect the inter-stellar drive.

    The first panel made me immediately think of Leslie Gore’s “Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows “, though I haven’t heard that song in decades.

    How about “Vote while you still can.” There are those who are working to take that right away, but we still have time to vote them out.

    I had to give up running years ago because of a bad back. I guess I’m in deep do do.

    It being Rat, I have to wonder; does he mean run as in flee or run as declare for office? Either one is terrifying.

    Matthew 24:15-18

    So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak.

    I guess I wouldn’t really expect much better from Rat, but it’s still a pretty pathetic message…..

    Just seeing Notre Dame ablaze has made me want to escape from it all. Certainly it does seem as if the Apocalypse is approaching.

    Hey Pastis! FYI we really really miss the Crocs, the Lions and Guard Duck and Mr. Snuffles. We love Pig Rat and Goat a bunch but Would also love to see arcs featuring any of these other guys as well. Whatever happened to the Eata Zeeba fraternity house?
