In the Bleachers by Ben Zaehringer for March 24, 2021

The inspiration for pancakes.

Obviously, a graduate of the Wile E. Coyote School of Boulder Catching.

The real rock, scissors, paper game.

Yikes I’d hate to see the first pillow fight

That hair-do looks strangely familiar…..???

Or medicine ball exercise, maybe?

That’s more of a discovery isn’t it?

Or this was early dodge ball.

There’s always a catch.

And the other guy’s thinking “Note to self, don’t play catch with Grog”.

Afterthought: “Hey…now all his stuff is mine?”. The invention of politics and war.

Parallel inspiration: Kliban’s caveman strip in National Lampoon, “Shab,” had one where one caveman has the other one turn around and whangs a rock off his head. “Not bad!” says the recipient. “What do you call it?” “Catch!”

What a smashing idea
