Strange Brew by John Deering for August 30, 2024

Her prosthetic hooks were “pirated” by insidious forces.

I wonder what else is …. “missing!???”

;-)

The saddest part is, how will she eat her chocolates?

Her arms are just out racing in the olympics

No wonder she hasn’t written.

Who turns the pages for her?

Alexa, turn the page. Alexa, Alexa?

Venus apparently has a lot of help with things.

If she’s Ernest, she’ll find a Hemingway.

“Wow, NONE of this is working! Guess I’ll just watch some TV… oops”

Bad joke….

Look Ma, no hands!

Her home is in Geneva. She’s attended one too many disarmament conferences.

She’s always being taken for granite.

As long as she has legs it’s good.

I doubt she’d be reading Hemingway. She has better taste.

Its a real page turner… arrrg!

My groaner for the day! Thanks!

More to the point, how will she turn the page???

Forty years ago, I worked in the video department of a large medical school here in Dallas. One of my co-workers was born without fully developed arms—his left arm came down to a point below the elbow and his right was a conical projection up at the shoulder with a vestigial thumb. But he could do ANYTHING! He could put a mini-cam on his shoulder and shoot, he could ride a motorcycle—I’m talking anything.

So, the point of this is…every year for the department Christmas party we would spend a week or so putting together a tape for the party, full of jokes and skits and general silliness.

The best joke ever was a simple tight shot on a book cover and it zoomed out to see Robert reading, of course, A Farewell to Arms. No comment, just that.

There were administrators who wanted to fire somebody, until they found out it was HIS idea!

Glad to see a cartoonist catch up with us from forty years ago ;)

I think that’s Chuck Berry’s Milo De Venus.
