Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for July 23, 2023

Only Noam Chomsky could properly interpret this mess.

If you’s watched crows field-strip a pigeon, you know why the dove dove for cover.

So how old is Boog supposed to be today?

Only Norm Crosby could properly interpret this mess.

The man always had a talent for his vast storehouse of vocabules.

The nose knows!

The doctor wound the bandage around the wound.

Every week there should be an extra box in the Sunday Gasoline Alley strip with Boog and the talking bear giving a “WORDS ARE FUNNY” word of the week.

Today, in our Facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/749970695820441

This is a job for Professor Irwin Corey! It’s been said that he was once a school principal, which means that he would have had principles in such matters….

Veddy interestink but schtupit .

He is lying, he still steals the attention even when he is lying still on a steal beam.

If there was a footrace among metals, would lead take the lead?
