    And of course, Mr. Ed wouldn’t say anything for the nice men in white jackets. But that begs the question: who’s going to bring him his oats now?

    Off to the glue factory you go, since the Ed’s wife doesn’t want to have the thing that sent him away still with her. Good PLAN ED!

    Anybody else old enough to remember Francis the talking mule?

    Are you a talking horse? Nay!

    I’ve sure heard of Francis, but I don’t “remember” him, exactly. Sadly, there’s far too much truth to this strip’s outcome. It’s more tragic than funny.

    I liked the Francis football movie.

    Hey, Ed doesn’t have to worry about who will bring him his oats - he’ll just pick up a pencil, dial the phone, and order in. Just like he’s always done. Well, at least until Carol, the jealous little bleeep, sends him off somewhere. Then he probably won’t have access to a desk with a phone near his stall….

    Also - given his intelligence and ability to speak, do we think it might have been embarrassing for him to have Wilbur cleaning up his doo-doo…?

    @John Deering - um, Mr. Ed was a Palomino, you know…

    Oops - sorry I didn’t ‘bleeep’ myself, editors - didn’t occur to me that that word was a no-no…

    I guess doo-doo is OK though, eh?

    @GreenBikeGuy - not sure what you mean by “far too much truth to this strip’s outcome. It’s more tragic than funny.”

    Have you known a lot of people whose talking horses have gotten them carted off to the ‘funny farm’…?

    Yes, yet another tragic comic strip.

    Is it any wonder that I feel so depressed lately?

    I did’t remember Francis the talking mule so I googled it and found clips on YouTube. Must be where the idea for Mr. Ed came from.

    This should have a footnote credit for James Thurber. Never count your boobies before they’re hatched.
