Poncho: The cat and I are on the run. We really appreciate you letting us hide out among you guys. Heh heh! It just occurred to me we're "on the lamb", and we're hiding out amongst sheep! Heh heh hee hee heh... heh... Guess that joke is a little over your heads, huh? Sheep: No, no, it was spot on. Now tell a fart joke!

The sheep seem smart, maybe they can be helpful….

Was that Rory who said that? No, he’s not a potty mouth.

WoodEye they won’t be too helpful if he keeps telling jokes like that.

The fact that he’s constructing the whole series of jokes around “on the lamb” when the expression for “fleeing from authority” is “on the lam” makes this suck even more than it would had he NOT misspelled “lam.”

hey “comics” - lighten up. Dogs can’t spell, you need to forgive them for not being properly eqiupped to deal with homonyms.

Poncho, get back to the business at hand and stop trying to pull the wool over their eyes.

I wonder if Poncho will ever get home and where does the cat live? It would be funny if this cat was one of the cats he already lives with.

The cat does look like one of the cat’s that live in his house. Why doesn’t Poncho ask to borrow a phone to call Chaz or his buddies?

Actually the expression is “on the lam” (not ‘on the lamb’). It was more obvious yesterday – today’s can pass as a very poor pun! ;-)

Such pedantry. But it’s only a comic strip after all said and done. A quick smile - or laugh - and then on with the motley.
Anyway, my old dogs approve of the sheep’s request.

Sorry folks, I think this will turn out to be Poncho’s dream. Sheepishly, he will awaken to discover a new afinity for Carmen’s cats.
Bargrove about 15 years ago
Well, banhda and comic. There’s that pun again, and
there’s mutton you can do about it. so ha

There’s a Blue Oyster Cult song titled, “I’m on the Lamb but I ain’t No Sheep”.
