Slab Crab

Brutus and Gladys sit cuddling in his green chair. It's very awkward looking. "Happy Valentine's Day, Brutus!" "Happy Valentine's Day, my love!" "This feels just like our first Valentine's Day together." "Yes, it does," Brutus begins. "Except I don't remember you feeling so heavy..."

Sorry I was gone all week. I caused you to miss this lovely comic featuring Brutus and Gladys' last Valentine's as a married couple.

A frog bounces up to Hurricane Hattie as she sits on a log eating a sack lunch. "Psst, little girl, I need your help," the frog says. "I'm really a prince but I was turned into a frog by an evil spell! Kiss me and I'll become a prince again," the frog says. "Kiss a frog? EEccchh! What's in it for me?" Hattie asks. "No sweat, I'm a prince. How does $1,000 grab ya?" "Hm..." Hattie thinks and then grabs the frog and stuff him into her paper bag. "Hey! What'cha doing?" the frog yells. "Simple," Hattie begins. "A talking frog is worth a lot more than $1,000!"

Who is this frog? Prince Andrew? How about you find a woman over the age of consent, and not, you know, a 9-year-old?

And this isn't going to be a One Froggy Evening situation. If that frog prince doesn't sing, Hattie will just play frog baseball with him or just throw him against a wall.

Brutus comes into the kitchen with a paper bag. Gladys is standing at the stove. "I'm back, Gladys. I stopped at Todd Sweeney's butcher shop. Would you believe he raised his prices again? These ribeyes I bought cost an arm and a leg. It's outrageous!" "Everyone knows he has the highest prices in town," Gladys says. "Why do you continue to shop there?" "When it comes to a good steak, money is no object!"
I mean, if Todd Sweeney has the best meat then paying his exorbitant prices is fine. I'm willing to pay a little more for fresh cut slabs of the best beef this side of the Ohio River from Todd Sweeney, the demon butcher of Fleet Street.





I posted a link on social media yesterday, but for those who may have missed it, Timmy and the Robot posted yesterday. If you would like to support me or this website, you can buy me a cup of coffee over on Ko-fi.
