B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for November 14, 2011

No but they seem to be smarter.

Real quick thinking there, B.C.

Old saying, “Out of the frying pan into the fire.”

I dunno. I think I’d take the raptor over quicksand. Slow death just doesn’t appeal to me. Crunch and munch doesn’t either, but we all know making choices is hard.

They are toast given you can’t totally submerge in quicksand.With quicksand, the more you struggle in it the faster you will sink. If you just relax, your body will float in it because your body is less dense than the quicksand. Just google howstuffworks.

Float man, float!

Don’t worry, it looks like it’s magical blue quicksand made of unicorn spit.

Check out Mythbusters episode 19 Killer Quicksand. It doesn’t work!

Now the raptor can have a meaty sandwich.

As Rick Perry would say, “Oops!.”

Love the raptor’s face in panel 3. He’s annoyed by the comment made that he can’t swim.

trivia: people don’t drown in quicksand. it’s mostly water, so you’re right, they only sink to chest-deep, but the muck tends to keep one trapped in it. then they die from hypothermia.

La Brea tar pits…the early story.

Its not that the Raptor can’t swim. Its that he doesn’t need to swim. After all, the guys have obliged him by staying put.

And they can?
