He probably didn't stop giggling from the moment he catalyzed the idea to the point of completion.

7. Is this a newspaper comic?

It's too funny. Who runs this?

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

13. I believe it's Washington Post but I read it online

If you have a Yahoo addy you can configure My Yahoo to get the news mix you want. Mine includes Oliphant, Doonesbury and Tom Toles. :thumbsup:

[Generic Other]

8. Ha Ha!

Great to see!

[burrowowl]

9. Loved it when

Oliphant show Bu$hie in Hilterlike attire and showed wild animals being sent to the firing squad. Oliphant is a bit conservatist, but he doesn't like Bu$h!
Be sure to post the contined, my paper doesn't carry Oliphant anymore.

Got a LOT of school work, even before the semester starts. :(

I got a gig coming up soon, so I'll at least get out for an evening. :)

edit: just finished a quickie.

[beam me up scottie]

24. You are a very sick and twisted individual.

And that's why I lurve you!

[Pachamama]

30. Just finished a "quickie"?

Oh Swamp Rat....good for you :blush:

[Swamp Rat]

31. LOL!

I wish! If only I were in Brasil right now... Oba! :loveya: ... Que saudade!!! :cry:

[frictionlessO]

37. Ah, Swampy. I love the visions you bring you are my internet ayahuasca!

The blond on the far left feels like she might be transgendered to me...

Which is another thing I love about Brasil... not quite the hang ups regarding boys who shoulda been girls.

Must learn Portuguese!

[Pachamama]

45. Someone mention, Ayuhuasca?

:beer: ...... :puke:.....:think:.....:tinfoilhat:....:loveya:....:grouphug:

:hi:

Yeah, Swamp Rodent is my Internet Ayuhuasca too! :bounce:

[Swamp Rat]

50. Yer so cute when you are being extra humble...

Or were you just too busy to post another graphic??

[Swamp Rat]

52. You choose.

[frictionlessO]

49. Its the jaguars that kinda freak me out,

them and volvos!

Get out of my thoughts! Or wait was I in yours? Ahh hell its all Reeses peanutbutter cups now!

Whhheeeeeeeeeeeee!

[Pachamama]

55. But I became the Jaguar on one experience & it was amazing...

...I guess if I had become a Volvo on the other hand, that would have been pretty scary.... :rofl:

Guess you know my depiction of the Ayuhuasca was pretty accurate....Mine was done with both the Huarharani and the Achuar and Shuar indians in Equador....

:hi:

[Nothing Without Hope]

20. Here's an earlier Oliphant cartoon I love - he's really got the blivet**'s

number! I wonder how many print media venues carried the great cartoon in the opening post of this thread?

The cartoon below may take a few seconds to load - wait for it, it's worth it.

Edited to add: Read this thread if you don't know who the blivet** is. More and more reasons were given for it as the replies progressed - it's a magically perfect fit!

[beam me up scottie]

21. That's priceless!

I don't remember seeing that one.
Thanks!

[evlbstrd]

25. I've always loved the term blivett.

It just sounded right. But I had never heard the term before.
Now it sounds even better.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

26. That cartoon is absolutely brilliant!!!!

Reinforces what I've been saying about Chimpy for the past 5 years: He is nothing but a sniveling, yellow coward....

[Duer 157099]

57. priceless! I keep thinking of this (real) pic of Bush as a kid ...

This, by the way, is the only photo I've seen of him on a live horse.
Or rather, pony. I suspect that,just as they do today, they dressed him up and posed him for the picture (baby's first photo-op!).
