Farcus by David Waisglass and Gordon Coulthart for September 02, 2022

Because he had to get to the other side!!!

He was tired of being henpecked.

Technically he didn’t cross the road.

He was squirrelized.

He was just checking new cars, to see their automatic braking smoke their tires.

We will never know, since he did not get to cross the road.

lost a bet with the opossum……….

STEW TONIGHT!

Gasp! Harold is clucking dead….

Tom the Toad (Tune: “O Tannenbaum”)

♫♪Oh Tom the toad, Oh Tom the toad,

Why are you lying on the road?

Oh Tom the toad, Oh Tom the toad,

Why are you lying on the road?

You did not see the car ahead,

And now you’re marked with tire tread.

Oh Tom the toad, Oh Tom the toad,

Why are you lying on the road? ♪♫

What happened to the chicken that didn’t cross the road?

Well … it didn’t make to the other side. That’s for sure.

To inspire Gary Larson. The pecking is always better on the other side.

I never thought he meant THAT “other side.” …. But now that he’s “bought the farm,” will there be be big changes coming?

Should’ve taken a road less traveled!
