Monty by Jim Meddick for September 05, 2023

Whittling rule number 1: Always whittle away from the hand that holds the stick, not toward it.

It’s that sharp wit

Do not whittle while you work at coming up with homespun wisdom.

Monty is such a cutup.

…outside of the?

They call me Tater Salad

Does Monty have a vacation home at Lake Wobegon?

Some people should never handle sharp knives or sharp sticks.

And off to the Urgent Care, we go…

What happened with Sedgewick? He was here Sunday.

A standard pocket knife without extensive sharpening……..Meh , invest in a set of good whittling knifes and learn how to sharpen them and a good A4 rated gloves , have fun !

I thought he had a new dog at first. The plant in panel one looked like a mutt with his tongue out. The tongue was just the right rocking chair arm.

Branching out isn’t as easy as it looks….lol

Tis but a scratch. Tis only a flesh wound.

Monty should not be allowed to handle sharp objects.

That was so funny today. Tater salad, lol

You can’t make maple syrup when the muskrats are climbing on the henhouse. (Applies to any situation you don’t understand)

Does he have any duck tape???? :)

That’s gonna be sore for a whittle while.

He needs to be more careful. He’s only got three fingers to begin with.

Here’s one: Dull blades and dull wits lead to sharp pain.

Sharp knives and dull minds…

Homespun obscenities! Monty’s got that part down.

‘Course, the boy don’t know proper whittlin’, that’s fer sure. And he ain’t never caught a muskrat, neither….

Shoot, i s’peck we’ll never find out about that there mushrat an’ the tater sallage.
