The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for September 10, 2022

Brown nosing

That also put a smile on Brutus’s face.

I made some brownies the way they should be made, BUT I used a little too much of a certain ingredient, what a ride…I won’t do that again…maybe

Pretty soon brownies will have gotten into him.

Just wait til he finds out Thorny ate all those brownies.

Bribery always works on a kid.;-D

Shucks, now I want some brownies…

When I was a kid I loved eating brownies then I discovered Girl Guide cookies.

If there are any left after Brutus gets into them

Wilberforce shows a high degree of enlightened self-interest. It’s all choices and consequences.

buttering you up for something yummy… nice. :g

If I’m good today, can I have one, too?

Ah, the power of chocolate.

Love chocolate cakes and pies. At 6’ , 260 lbs – I respect them very much.

“Ohh, say, you’re really looking attractive today…” ☺

Brownies bring out the best in a lot of people, including myself, ESPECIALLY when they are smothered in chocolate frosting…..

Wilberforce has a genius mind!

The mere mention of sweets makes Brutus light up. That candied apple didn’t fall far from the tree!

The kids just like his father, the best way to get through to him is through his stomach.

So be on your best behavior, Brutus.

Gladys could teach Wilberforce to make brownies. She would know what he’s doing, and he probably would enjoy it. My child sure did like getting involved. There will be more to clean up, but I always found it to be worth it.

What time?

so, wilberforce is brownie-nosing…?

Here’s some one with worse luck than Brutus—-https://www.ThisDayTrivia.com/trivia/september-10?f=Ann-Hodges-death#Ann-Hodges-deathMeteorite Victim

Ann Elizabeth Fowler Hodges

Died September 10, 1972 b. 1920

American meteorite victim. She is the only known person to have been injured by a meteorite. She was struck by a 5.54 kg (12 lbs, 3 oz) meteorite fragment in Alabama when it crashed through the roof of her home, bounced off a large console radio, and hit Hodges while she was sleeping on the couch. The 34-year-old Hodges was badly bruised on the side of her body. Another fragment was found by a farmer the following day. Due to the publicity surrounding the event, the farmer was able to sell his fragment for enough money to buy a car and house. On the other hand, Hodges fought with her landlord over the rights to the meteorite for a over year. The landlord claimed it was her property because it fell through her roof. Hodges eventually paid the landlord $500 for the meteorite, but by that time the public had lost interest in the story and she was unable to sell it.In 1992 a small meteorite fragment (3 g) struck a Ugandan boy in Mbale, but it had been slowed down by a tree and did not cause any injury.
