Quaestor said...: The "pie cooling on a window sill, attracting lovable tramps and mischievous boys" is a pretty ancient trope by now.; 8/21/26, 8:08 AM

Meade said...: Shutting the creaky oven door with his knee tickled my rusty old funny bones.; 8/21/26, 9:02 AM
who-knew said...: I didn't know he had taken up baking. His post Zeppelin career has been interesting, both with his Band of Joy and a couple of duet albums with Allison Krause; 8/21/26, 9:04 AM
David53 said...: That’s fake. His countertop only has a coffee cup and some canisters on it, nobody only has two things on their countertop.; 8/21/26, 9:10 AM

That's a good one!; 8/21/26, 9:19 AM
Iman said...: Got a monkey on my back
The m-m-m-m-monkey on my back, back, back, back
Gonna change my ways tonight
Nobody's pie but mine; 8/21/26, 9:20 AM
Lazarus said...: It's a cartoon, so shouldn't a hobo pass by and steal the pie?; 8/21/26, 9:28 AM
IamDevo said...: I've been working on the acoustic riff Jimmie Page plays through "Ramble On." Should be easy: E major, A major, D major, but it's up on the neck where transposed chords go to get lost and the fingering is a little tricky. Coincidence? I think not.; 8/21/26, 9:49 AM
Wince said...: A more up-to-date, age-appropriate cartoon might be the intro to the Immigrant Song while he’s trying to take a piss. Screaming :

Ah-ah, ah!
Ah-ah, ah!; 8/21/26, 11:02 AM
Ann Althouse said...: @Wince check out this earlier one: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Db0skrUIvfW/?igsi=MXVheno0NGhuZzBudw==; 8/21/26, 11:21 AM

I bet the lemons were squeezed ‘till the juice ran down his leg.; 8/21/26, 11:33 AM
Bob Boyd said...: Unrelated, but came up on the IG feed after the last one, It's pretty good.

Iman said...: Ah-ah, ah!
Ah-ah, ah!
Don’t come from a box, and it’s not from a can
It’s a sweet recipe from my dear old Gran
The butter and the sweet
Will overwhelm your taste glands
You’ll be begging for, another slice
Valhalla, I am coming!; 8/21/26, 11:57 AM
Iman said...: That’s hilarious, Bob Boyd!; 8/21/26, 12:00 PM
Whiskeybum said...: That’s gotta be Custard Pie.; 8/21/26, 12:16 PM
Temujin said...: Hilarious link, Boyd. Man...that dude is funny.; 8/21/26, 12:53 PM
