Wild Cards! – August 4, 2025

Krazy Pic 1  Ya know, regardless of actual intentions . . .  if you’re driving the church van, you probably oughta pay attention to where you park!  

Krazy Pic 2  Speaking of church . . . Take a close look at this Bible in the bookstore.  You think something might be questionable (and funny)?

Cartoon of the Week I’m pretty sure I’ve shared this before, but hey . . . Anything with Frank & Ernie and puns has to be worth an encore, eh?  

Not R-rated, after all! This is not really a Krazy Pic, so it gets its own category.  This want-ad sounds somewhat racy at the start, but it ends up G-rated after all!  When you get to the ‘end of the story’, you’ll be smiling for about 6 different reasons!

Curiosity of the Week  We probably all have our own preferred working environments.  But in this regard, German poet Friedrich von Schiller seems to have been an extreme case!  I’m wondering how he discovered this?!

Pesky Puzzlers  Between the recent Puzzlers (congrats to Christine Porter for solutions submitted) and the new ones, we’ve gone from pickled peppers to rolling dice – and so much more!!  Find solutions and new Puzzlers here, and join the fun!!  (REMINDER NOTE:  The safest way to submit solutions, at least for now [see below], is either to reply to this e-mail or e-mail me directly: larrycampbell@missouristate.edu.)

Apologies & Delayed Credit  It seems like I used to get notified when folks made comments on Posts, but it suddenly dawned on me that I haven’t been for quite a while, as I just just discovered there have been months of Pesky Puzzler comments, questions, and other items that I have totally missed.  I’m exploring for a possible glitch, but in the meantime, I have issued apologies to all concerned.  AND I’m listing here ALL SUBSCRIBERS WHO HAVE SUBMITTED PUZZLER SOLUTIONS DURING THAT TIME AND NOT GOTTEN CREDIT:  Don Hayes, Frank Green, Carmelita Tieskotter, Allan Schilter, Dennis Newkirk, David Brackey, Neil McCall, Christine Porter, Amy Ragsdale, and Steve Eslinger.  My apologies to all!
