Tread Lightly

Tired of being another fleece in the flock, Harold the Clever Sheep dons the Steel Belt of Power and takes to the air. As he flies above their astonished faces, he proclaims “If you want a good year, you must submit to me and call me your one king!” And that’s how Harold became a uni-royal.

    Aww, poor guy. I like how he figures out struggling isn’t working, but then the flock moves and his sheep instincts kick in and weeeeeeee.

    I almost hated to laugh but it’s so darned funny and I don’t think the poor animals is hurt at all. I would love to know how they extricated her. I like how she turns to the people and seems to say “A Little help here!”

    If it was a goat, I would be willing to bet it would do it again (Again!Again!Again!). Not sure if a sheep would repeat this experience.

    Between the French sheep scientist and silly walks minister, Cleese’s legs should have been the seventh Python…

    Does this tire make butt look big?

    Sheep tried to have her world on a string and got whirled instead.

    Don’t get fleeced by the other guys. Buy Uniroyal instead.

    Michelin Sheep.

    The look on the other sheeps’ faces …

    Some Kliban cartoons just write themselves.

    I laughed out loud at his frustration/panic.

    I am a horrible person.

      I’m bad too, finding it funny at first, then I did get concerned and felt for the hapless sheep. But the look on the other sheeps’ faces and Mike’s cleverness with tire brands, were enough to excuse any laughs.

        Relieved at least to read that the farmer then put down the camera and got rid of that spare tire.

        I have one that I’d like to get rid of too.

          Ha! As do I.

      You’re not the only one. I *adore* sheepies, and yet I laughed.
