“Cereal Dust Bowl” by Carl Warner
In Cereal Land, Barley was unpopular. Everyone hated his corny jokes. Barley couldn’t help it. It was his “Raisin” D’etre.
Strawberryhead arrived with a shotgun. He growled, “I’ve been contracted to kill you, you flake.”
“Don’t!” cried Barley. “I’ll make a bran new start!”
“Too late. I must. I’m a cereal killer.”

Do you guys see how fast that truck seems to be pulling away from the caravan in that picture? It’s obviously a loaf or death situation. He must have seen the muffins in the oven.
There were two muffins in there and one says, “Damn, it’s hot!”
The other says, “Jeeze, a talking muffin!”
I’ll stop now before I start to get bulger.

Haha! Most excellent. I’m not sure wheat you’re on about. That truck pulled away fast because because getting product out the dough quick and fast delivery means you earn a lot of bread. 😀 I know I kneed not do these, but I can barley hold myself back. 😉
