    I guess Pig is less than 4 years old.

    He should have used the candy to bribe the cop. Either that or a donut.

    If he goes to jail on February 29th, does he have to stay there until the next leap year?

    The things you learn on Gocomics! Thanks to Susan Sunshine, on Cleo and Company (on Sherpa), I now know that Pastis is a paronomasiac! Please forgive him, his medical insurance does not cover this condition.

    Believing that February 29 is not a real day requires a Leap in faith.

    (Looking for a fictitious judge to set this up) Night Court’s Harry Stone sentences Pig, for vandalism and robbery, to a year in county lock up. To be served from from one leap year day to the next.

    I have a friend who’ll be celebrating his 19th birthday on the 29th. There are some advantages… Of course, he’s still not legal to buy a drink…

    I’m disappointed, Pig. How could you rob a candy store? That’s wrong.

    Spray painting the cop car, on the other hand, is awesome.

    One would think that in this day and age, with all the advanced technology, that we could fix our calendar to be more accurate. Also, our clocks so we don’t have to change them back and forth every few months. The Mayan’s had a much better calendar that they devised hundreds of years ago.

    Stupid Pig. February 2nd is the day that you get to do whatever you want, over and over, because there will be no long-term consequences.

    Well it’s official. Pig does not live in California. There you can rob a candy store and the police won’t do a damn thing, unless you’ve stolen over $950. Can you say “Shoplifters delight?”

    I love that Pig robs a candy store by stealing candy instead of money.

    Not sure how I feel about the people who responded to this comment by pointing out to Pig that he’s wrong about February 29th not being a real day. THAT’S THE JOKE, GANG.
