An impossibly cute photo. A really bad mess to deal with. You have to keep both the kid and the dogs away from it and each other, while simultaneously cleaning up the kid and the sofa cushions. And the kid is too young to assume any sort of responsibility for her actions. She’s not capable of intent, unaware of the concepts of responsibility and accountability.
The dogs are there, of course, because a) the kid is there, and food often follows her around, and b) “You see? We told you! Food!” They don’t know not to eat chocolate. They’re dogs. They’ll eat pretty much anything they can swallow. Not envious of the adult who came across this scene and took the picture.
One of my neighbours lost her cat suddenly on Christmas Day, very unexpected. She’s going to the local shelter later this week to look at a couple of 13yo cats. She says she might adopt both of them if they get on with one another.

“…mmm! I smell bacon!”
Achieving transcendance. A state of Zen. Other animals can do this more readily than humans.
I know that my cat can.

I’m going to guess he/she used a jell filter.
Not the only time he used that gag. I remember seeing someplace the same thing from the side.
I think it was Laurel & Hardy last time.
I’m still really impressed with the engineering to make a car that runs (or rolls) and then so cleanly disassembles on command.
Without killing the occupant.
Well… You don’t know how many were lost along the way to Buster Keaton 😁
Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss-shay, That was built in such a logical way?
It ran a hundred years to a day…
That’s what I was thinking of too….
“All at once and nothing first… Just like bubbles do, when they burst.”
A SAD. Spontaneous Automotive Disassembly.
Again, I’ve set this up to run just before the beginning of the scene (it’s Buster Keaton starring and directing “Three Ages”),
.
The fairies have to get up really early, just to embroider all those beads of water into place.
Just before the screamy guy shows up…

Now we know where the Old Ones went! They turned to geese!
They get drunker as you move from left to right…
They’re just fine, thanks. They’re wearing down coats.
How do you wear down a coat? Climbing up rough surfaces?
,.
I got three.
And I think I could have got the fourth if he wasn ‘t having such a good time!
Same here. Probably the same three too.
Certain of three, have a good bet on a fourth, and No. 5 is one of those faces you know you have seen a thousand times but …
Don’t have the fifth guy on the left, but the others are recognizable. Love the appearance of two left arms on the right fellow.
Claude Rains on the far left?
Where’s the answer? I got 2 and maybe a third.
Now i can see it.
Yup
Thanks, only 2 (2nd & 5th)
Nope, still wouldn’t have got the guy on the left or the guy with the big laugh (and small nose…)
“The doggy did it…”

Sooo lucky it’s almost confined to one cushion!
yep, just flip that cushion over
Maybe put some newspaper underneath to catch the chocolate?

It just happened to be passing by?
“It just came out of nowhere!”

Out of tragedy comes hope.
All those years of rubbing waxed paper on the slide and…
,,.
Got it.
Just in case somebody wants it.
No.
Notice how he smacks it around?
So it wouldn’t wriggle and jiggle and tickle inside her?
As if it’s not humiliated enough already!
It’s good to be the king.
Boo! 😀
Claude may be onto the problem. Is there even, somewhere in the annals, an image of Nighthawks for us to use as a guide?
um………nope
The German cruiser Admiral Graf Spee scuttling in the Rio de la Plata estuary on December 17, 1939, following the Battle of the River Plate.
More about the “Pocket Battleship” can be found at:

They made a great movie of it.
Train Buddy, and never pay an automobile mechanic again….
“Take the car instead of the sled!?! Not this time!“
He ate enough car when he was a puppy. 😀
Okay guys… I know I posted this before…
But it was kind of a lot of work, so I saved it just in case the strip was run again..
And now’s my chance!
…
Holy cow, Nighthawks.
Do you really want to steer your strip towards such a looow pun.
I mean… rustling cattle?
Besides… I have to wonder whether Cleo’s story is bull….
why would the Russells leave anything for the Leaves to rustle?
…
Anyhow, Rat usually attacks Stephan with a bat…
But hay, Cleo doesn’t horse around…
She’d axe you no questions, if you let her go unbridled…
I don’t blame you for stalling.
…
You know, I was gonna make some puns for you, but I’m not in the moo’ed…
I think you’ve herd it all anyway… so for now, I’m just gonna bale.
Yooooo hoooooo……
Um…. was it something I said?
Then, it’s not just me?
YOU might be just you… I can’t tell from here😁
But if you mean not seeing Nighthawks or a new Cleo…
We’re all in the same boat.
…
Unless he’s having problems with WordPress, he probably just fell asleep…
I understand… I did that last night.
But when it’s me, it’s not so visible.
Cleo needs to go wake him up!
Axe-ellent idea – I guess?!?
Maybe eggs (and bacon) would have been the better choice…
