Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 24, 2011

Cold turkey is delicious. I don’t know why he would quit it. He is a pig

I prefer a hot turkey sandwich too.

Oh, Pig! Good for you.

Hey, nuke it. It tastes better. A little salt and pepper would be nice…

That rules out two things for Thanksgiving, Pig…

Great gag today..Im stealing it…LOL Just kidding Stephan.

The deli counter in the grocery where I shop has a tasty cajun turkey breast. Not bad, right out of the fridge. What does Pig have against Cold Turkey? Goat just isn’t literal-minded in the way that ingenuous little Pig is.

it’s a Mitch Hedberg joke…

Pig!

At least wait till a week or two after Thanksgiving, when there’s none left in the freezer.

You’ll be so jealous if Rat gets all the turkey sandwiches.

Cold Turkey,Has got me,on the run…

Well, some like it hot…

Next, Pig needs to get that monkey off his back – it’s really starting to smell!

I’m sure he’ll take your comment into account…or not..

Pig is admitting that he is powerless over his addiction to luncheon meats – that his lunches had become unmanageable.

Pig should really give up BLTs instead.

Then draw the strip yourself. Good Luck!

Cold turkey tastes awful, congrats pig.

Reminds me of a quote from an episode of Cheers : Woody: “Oh, don’t worry, Sam. I’m getting a night job.” Sam: “You’re going do another job when you leave here at two thirty in the morning?” Woody: “Yup. Graveyard shift.” Sam: "Where? Woody: “Graveyard, Sam. Gee whiz, say goodnight Gracie.”

Steve Allen (an old comedian) once said, “Six months ago I stopped smoking cold turkey. And I haven’t smoked a cold turkey since.”

Have pig order a BLT instead.

…good decision… that stuff is full of nitrates.

I know there are a lot of variations to this joke, but it still didn’t stop me from laughing..

Quit cold Turkey? Don’t visit Istanbul in the winter time.

LOL LOL xxx

Another good one Stephan!

About time people said what they meant.

Will Pig still have some Wild Turkey with his Cold Duck?

Next, Pig will fall “off the wagon”. Ouch.

Yes, the characters do look a bit smaller today. Just sayin.

Is there a 12 step program to help?

Whatever happened to Connie the Judgemental Cow?Or Katie the Drama Cow?Or even the Raterpillar?I still miss the Mad Ducker and Helikitty with a hand grenade.

The charecters look a little fatter than normal… I’m not complaining, just saying…

Cold turkey with cold stuffing and hot french fries – yum!

I don’t mind quitting cold turkey, but they’ll have to pry the cold pizza from my cold, dead hands.÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷I don’t really believe Pig’s statement; I think he’s full of baloney.

This might be to much for Pig to do all at once. Perhaps he will need to quit quiting cold turkey cold turkey.

A fellow I know has decided to limit himself to sausage just once a week—unless his wife serves it more often. . . .
