Today’s background music: “Up, Up and Away” by The 5th Dimension.
Oh how I wish! But I wouldn’t come back. Ever.
And this week is a short week, for many of us in the USA.
Pig high on balloon but will soon drops down to harsh reality when balloon pops.
See you in Oz!
About time Pig gets a break. (Team Pig)
Rat and Goat got there too late.
Now Pig is flying hundreds of feet up in the air supported only by a balloon he’s holding in one hand, no harness or parachute. Must be terrifying.
I’m nearly sure I’ve seen this one ere now. Though the date is current. Am I suffering deja vu all over again or is Pastis self-plagiarizing?
Hope Pig has a strong grip.
When Pig flies!
I keep wondering just how depressed Pastis is.
and it’s only Monday.
Happy Labor Day everybody!
Pig working for China now?
When pigs fly?
We recently watched the 1956 short film “The Red Balloon”. It still is a good movie.
Paycore (formerly Paul Brown Stadium) at 1:00 next Sunday for Opening in Orange. Can’t wait!
You know that Pastis didn’t realize he was placing this piece on a holiday. Otherwise, he would have flipped it to Tuesday……………….. Yeah, Stephan, I’m right, you’re outed, and now, you’re really annoyed with yourself.
the top quarter of the third panel was done by Banksy.
“O I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth/ sunward I’ve climbed..”
Haven’t seen the crocs lately. What do they eat when they can’t get zeebas? Spaghetti-Os?
So, this is one of my favorite comics, love the puns, but far too many " life is unbearable " jokes. Not really what I want in my COMICS.
I wonder where Pig’s happy place may be.
Physically impossible, except in comics.
Why is this week hard? It just started for most of us.
Wait for me, Pig!
The Tom Servo chorus sings him aloft….
“Some weeks are harder to handle than others.”
Yep. Especially when somebody else beat you to the only Balloon To Your Happy Place.
POP!
But Everybody Gets Their Own Balloon to Their Happy Place!
but this is a “short” week
Some people are harder to deal with than others, too.
Who else has watched that movie and cried at the ending???
My Happy Place moved, and didn’t leave a forwarding address. )>8
“I didn’t say it was YOUR laughin’ place. I said it was MY laughin’ place, Brer Bear!”
At least this a short week.
“Rise Up” by the Parachute Club from Toronto – it’s a lively inspirational song that creates a happy space.
And he floated directly to Chang’s Opium Den.
The older you get the more those “harder weeks” are tied to the death anniversaries of loved ones.
No more balloons for anyone else? I need and want one.
As Mondays go, one that you get the day off is pretty good (for those of us in the US)
I hear Pig crashed and burned.Really, what happened?He used the helium to make his voice sound funny.
I can’t help but think of that old french short film “The Red Balloon” that we watched in grade school….

Well, that’s one way to escape Monday.
How many times has Pig done this now?
Enjoy the enjoyment, Pig.
All days are of equal lengths but of different widths.
Only ONE Balloon does the job?
Love this one. It should be on a T-shirt.
