    handsome Dr. Horgenflorf is actually a Paraguayan circus juggler practicing without a license

    Why was my first thought, “who issues a circus juggler license”?

      Same here! 😆

        Well, if they juggle knives, axes, chainsaws, or things-on-fire, IMO licensing would be a good idea.

      After reading it several times, I think it means Dr. Horgenflorf is a practicing DOCTOR without a license.
      I think there should be a comma after “juggler”?

        Yeah, I figured that out, but then again, in Mike’s world, who knows..? Maybe jugglers do need a license. 🤹🏻‍♀️

    The cutest hamster pair ever! Don’t pick on them! Extra cuddles and pets.

    Sometimes, when a mommy hamster and a daddy hamster love each other very much . . .

    Finally, a chance to catch up with what’s going on in “The Guiding Leash”. I had to stop watching when the hot Mexican priest’s evil twin was convicted of running a chihuahua smuggling ring.

    • Ricky & Bibi's Mom February 17, 2025 / 5:59 pm

      How many chihuahuas can you fit in one of those rings, anyway?

    Considering the first sentence mentions a hospital (love the name!) I misread “kindly farmer” as “kidney farmer”, and was wondering what evil things he was doing with kidneys! Not to mention wondering how one would “farm” kidneys.
    I suppose my thinking was partially influenced by having recently watched a sci-fi TV show dealing with stem cell research, organ transplants, and cloning.

    Simultaneously laugh-crying and clutching pearls. How does Mike come up with this stuff????

    I love The Guiding Leash!! I hope the sesame seed farm can be saved.
