Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for August 27, 2024

…..and short pants.

In Shoe, I’d expect a short ostrich cook.

I saw that one coming.

It’s nice to see short people getting jobs.

One order of shorts, please.

Fresh or frozen?

IF, and I stress, "IF’, he knows what is good for him ! ! ! !

Boo!

If the cook is late, when is the funeral?

That makes me wonder…how come we never hear about long order cooks?

That happened to me once. My husband and I were at a restaurant and he ordered “Rosa’s tacos” and the person taking our order (the owner) asked if we could wait until Rosa got there.

Want fries with that?

Did he stop for a latte on the way to work?

[rim shot]

thought for sure she was gonna make a joke about the cook’s height… (or lack thereof!)

Roz is getting smart-alecky. Good thing she’s dealing with Cosmo and not Shoe.

He’ll be baking strawberry shortcake.

he’ll be there shortly…

or stewed?
