Mighty fine weather we're having!

I had to dig this sopping wet slug from the collection to show you that the wet weather is having an effect on Mr. Slug, who believes that having the right gear is essential. If you were to go to England, you would use a "bumbershoot" and not an umbrella, also called a "Ballella" in the USA.

Mr. Canopener bares a tooth and shows his metal

Everyone has a friend or two that they don't understand fully. Mr. Canopener is one of those interesting individuals in Mr. Slug's circle that refuses to abide by the rules, but you gotta love him anyway.

Flying off the shelves!

What machine is capable of fixing the economy in 2009? Introducing the most brilliant invention that the foot, or tail, has ever seen......The Booty Kicker 2000! A motivational aid that will send the competition reeling! Extra charge for shipping and handling, attachments not included. Order yours before supplies run out, or run away!

It would take an entire army..........

Mr. Slug has told those two friends of his to settle down and behave themselves, but they continue to irritate each other. Mr. Slug asks an important question, "Don't they know that they are on the same team?" We all know that good manners are essential for safety and well being in the workplace, and Mr. Slug has had enough of this squabbling! Pipe down, you two!

It pays to pay attention to your tail

The shorter days force many slugs to work in the dark when they get home in the evening. Inattention to detail, coupled with sleepiness can be a volatile cocktail of DANGER! Mrs. Slug has prescribed a tail bandaid and an early bedtime for Mr. Slug tonight.

To that, Mr. Slug says, "Nighty-Night" everyone!

Too fit to be tied

Mr. Slug finds it hard to concentrate on being positive when his co-workers insist upon poking each other in the belly all day long. He has decided to take to the skies to review the situation. His outlook has improved considerably!

Stand back everybody

Sometimes the best thing to do in these situations is to stay clear and let the offended parties work out differences with plenty of space around them.
It is times like this that Mr. Slug tries to concentrate on loving thoughts so as not to get involved with the personal problems of others around him.

Introducing the Notorious Mr. Lunchbag! "You can call him "Sir."

Way back in Mr. Slug's past is an old lunch pal, "The Notorious Mr. Lunchbag." He was replaced by another seemingly more stable worker, Mr. LunchBOX (that still remains to be seen...) and left the jobsite one day, crumpled and angry.

Mr. Slug tried to make amends by insisting that the management make an effort to hire him when the new guy, Mr. LunchBOX had a day off. If the new guy, Mr. LunchBOX, shows up tardy or hung over, notorious Mr. Lunchbag is right there to pick up the slack. Apparently, he can only be tolerated in short spurts. The notorious Mr. Lunchbag was originally let go due to a "personality conflict." The general consensus among his co-workers is that he simply needed to clean up his colorful vocabulary around the boss! Stay tuned as the drama unfolds!

Let's go Christmas flopping!

Let's hope that the brick and mortar stores don't go away in the age of the internet. How else will Mr. Slug take the belly warmer for a test drive? Also - Mr. Slug would like to remind you to unplug your appliances when not in use.

Popularity has its price

Lately, there have been people waving at Mr. Slug for no reason at all. It has begun to make him more concerned with his appearance out in public. He has recently hired a bodyguard and a wardrobe assistant, just in case!

Mr. Slug is steppin' out

Mr. Slug Says, "Enjoy your free market and spend your money, buy yourself the finer things in life, (after all, you deserve it!)......and put on your dancing shoe!"

Current events, politics, toes, and you

Since I am here to serve you, my dear smart and loyal reader, I will commence to answer your request for a Mr. Slug Adventure that is timely and up to date. Heck - You won't even have to read the news anymore....................For instance - if you want to know who won this years election, look no further. It was Barack Toebama!

An embarrassing itch can be rather serious!

It seems that the poor fit of Mr. Slug's commode has caused a rash that will not go away. Mr. Slug is forced to go outside into the cold air to do his business! Oh No!

A precarious perch for Mr. Slug

The word of the day is "Precarious". Even the most routine tasks can take on a certain danger if the product in use is not ergonomically shaped for the intended user. Mr. Slug is thinking of inventing a seatbelt for his toidy. Brilliant idea, I dare say!

"A million bucks for your thoughts"

(drum roll continued)

Here it is, folks! The Hope diamond of slug cartoons, the rarest of rare meats indeed! Iron fortified and stained with the dye used on the backside of the napkin, this Mr. Slug cartoon is priceless and is being stored in a highly protective ziplock bag, with round the clock guards posted outside the Slug's Rest Compound, which is located deep in the woods somewhere in Oregon. I would bet that we will need a fully armored transport when this fine document finds its high bidder at a Christie's Auction!

The underbelly of the next slug cartoon shown here!

You may be wondering why I would post the picture of the fine Sparkle brand napkin shown here. I feel it is important to know every aspect of the subject you are studying. Your Mr. Slug resides on the back of this very napkin, and his drawing is slightly discolored as a result....So, in case you think I spilled my bowl of cereal or otherwise soiled upon the handiwork, you now know the exciting truth. This is a rare "printed napkin slug" and it is likely to be valued at more than a million dollars one day in the very near future. Drum roll please.

Next time, call a professional!

When dealing with pest invasion, it is unwise to think you can outwit the little creatures with mere traps. They are smart, sneaky and will beat you at your own game. Mr. and Mrs. Slug learned a valuable lesson. If you hear a noise in the night, it might be your spouse, trapped by a rat!

Fashionable does not mean comfortable!

"Honey, may I borrow a pair of your pants?"......................"But of course you may, my dear!" A minute or two passes with audible grunts from the next room. "Are you sure those will be comfortable enough to work in? Turn around, let me get a good look at ya...............you look mighty good in them jeans! Hold still while I go search for my camera!"

Sluggy Gump slides home for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a great time to go home and sit in front of the TV and watch the classic movies from our youth. Mr. Slug says, "Gather round the flat screen, everybody! Happy Thanksgiving!"

Bubba Slug has to babysit

A Slug's gotta do what a Slug's gotta do............Bubba Slug's girlfriend knew that Bubba would be delighted to help her out when she decided to go shopping with her friends. Mr. Slug and Bubba Slug had already made other plans to work on the boat in the driveway. Bubba made the phone call hoping that Mr. Slug would find a way to help a brother out! Looks like Bubba was outta luck for the moment.

Only the finest for Mr. Slug!

High quality materials make the difference when it comes to treating oneself right. Mr. Slug says, "Never economize if you are aiming for safety and ease of movement!" Point well taken.

Did Mr. Slug fall asleep in the shower?

Ahhh, the restful feeling of the warm water washing over the tail can make one very sleepy indeed.......perhaps even causing one to fall asleep in the shower.....which is likely to make Mr. Bed very jealous! "I have a pillow with your name on it," says he.

Mr. Slug is freed from the dreaded Mr. Clampy!

Mrs. Slug to the rescue!!!!! Mr. Clampy had her darling husband by the tail at the bank, so Mrs. Slug grabbed a pen and started drawing furiously.....as you can see, she ran out of ink during the rescue attempt, but ditched the offending black pen for another that worked well enough to get Mr. Slug out of trouble with the dreaded Mr. Clampy!! Whew.....that was close!

Mr. Clampy finds Mr. Slug at the bank

Monday finds Mr. Slug attending to the daily task of money management. He would have cashed his check at the bank that it was drawn upon before depositing it if he knew in advance that Mr. Clampy would rear his ugly head! Good thing his wife Mrs. Slug knows how to literally draw a bank, with a ball point pen no less, as she is sure to get him outta this mess!

Mr. Slug says, "Buy! Buy! Buy!"

The success of every slug depends upon good decision making. Mr. Slug likes to watch the trends closely........When an investment is hot, you slide in as fast as possible!
