B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for July 31, 2022

Ratty beard

It definitely explains the lack of small bugs on him. Prehistoric field mice food.

I think I recall a strip where all kinds of animals kept coming out of his hair…..

Only two?

It might also explain his seeming “built-in” resistance to other things.

As Charlie Brown would say: Rats!

Mobile home

you give me rat scratch fever

A few days a go, there was a lightning storm near Grog. And all his hair was standing on end. What happen to all those rodents living in his hair?

Kind of reminds me of an Aerosmith song, “Rats in the Feller.” Lyrics hopefully courtesy of Aerosmith,

Goin’ under, rats in the fellar. Goin’ under, skin’s turnin’ yellow. Nose is runny, losin’ my rodent connection. Oh rats, getting an allergic reaction.

I think it was smart of Hart to use the same actor for both Grog and Spook.

Well there should be a joke.

….and possibly some weight gain…

This is not so far fetched, when you consider the myriad of microorganisms that inhabit us.

Grog has in infestation that only a good shave would help his ailment! LOL

Drinking Sea Water?

Rat on, rat on…

(¬_¬)

“Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees

Give a home to the fleas in my hair

A home for fleas, a hive for bees

A nest for birds, there ain’t no words

For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my hair."

Hair lyrics…

Grog is taking better care of his livestock than some people I have seen this year.

The beauty of a symbiotic relationship.

I have a couple college graduate granddaughters who can beat that belch.

Grog time traveled to Id and visited his future cousin Spook!

My greasy skin ensures the rats in my hair have enough to drink. No need to leave

Today’s Back to B.C. and B.C. start out with similar panels… but couldn’t be more different in the end. ;-)

Maybe Mason is taking drawing lessons from Mel Lazarus?
