Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for August 22, 2009

Busted, Broomie!

Foiled! The gent is just too aware of all the scams being pulled by unscrupulous folks these days (present company excepted, of course)!

the gent sounds like my Dad! it’s exactly like something he’d do. (if he still had leaves to rake)

@Joe Allen Doty, and Rakkav: It sure looked like an F to me. That’s what I get for not zooming the panel.

(but i kind of like “Flunderers” anyway)

Let that be a lesson to us all.

So much for easy street.

@yyyguy: I kind of liked “Flunderers” too. It made about as much sense as the rest of Broomie’s world. :)

After 1500 years, that’s the best scam she can come up with?!

Still looks like “Flunderers” to me, even zoomed.

Though I think it really is Plunderers (it makes more sense), Flunderers is funnier.

even at $1 per hundred leaves, she’s get a good bit of money

He must be one of those angry mobsters at townhall meetings.
