    Erm… just noticed… do I see THE muslim drinking alcohol or is it root beer?

    Poor Richard says, sacrifice a calf while you’re at it.

    Barmaid knows that lemon, honey, and bourbon stirred together
    works best. No cure, but she won’t care.

  3. Poor Richard Says:

    Kiki: watch for the little bubbles. The guys are just getting started here.

    By the way, great timing on that punch line! (oh, you didn’t know
    cartoons have “timing”? Well, now you do)

    At first, I thought this strip was going to be a reference to “I had a headache, so I took an aspirin and prayed. My headache went away, so prayer works!”

    Heh. Kind of reminded me of this Jon Stewart clip on prayer: http://yoism.reality-movement.org/media/JS-PrayerStudy.wmv

  6. Don Says:

    Great clip, raoul.

    Another Great strip :) keep it up!

    by the way, wow, that Jon Stewart clip is awesome, specially the ending with the megachurch nutter slapping the sheep down with his jacket, LOL

    Rich,

    Bourbon? BOURBON!?! I think you’ll find a quality single-malt (they’re ALL quality compared to blends) or brandy works best.

    Care to prove me wrong? Name your bar and we’ll get this experiment started. ;) :D

    rOOdy:

    You’re on. I’ll buy the bourbon (cheap);
    you can get the Scotch (oooof).

    “There ain’t no bad whiskey, sisters and brothers;
    it’s just that some is better than others,” as Poor
    Rick says.

    Barmaid believes!

    Must be nice having 1/3 of a God for your straight man. He sure sets her up for a wicked retort in that last panel.

    I’ve had to go back and read it several times, just to savour it again.

  14. Poor Richard Says:

    Gosh, rOOdy, I forgot: even the Canadians don’t know what bourbon is.
    (I still don’t know what it was I drank in Toronto.) At least I didn’t offend the Brits by suggesting ice, which is, I agree, a barbarian insult to any decent whiskey. I’m sure barmaid has been around, but she wouldn’t pick Jim Beam–
    so you’ve cleared my head–thanks. When I was in graduate school, I could
    afford Scotch, but I’ve been poor since then. Feel free to send money.

    How do I get my fundamentalist neighbors to read Jesus and Mo?
    Ply them with Scotch, maybe?

    It is true that given enough time, all prayers are answered.

    However, as it often turns out, sometimes the answer is no.

    Prayer is not a magic lamp to be rubbed so a jinni might fulfill wishes. Prayer is the acknowledging God’s sovereignty and conforming thoughts to His. Prayer is not about changing your situation; it’s about changing your attitude to live better in your situation.
