Time For Action
It’s always good to take time to smell the flowers. Except when Binky is conducting rocket tests.

That’s gotta hurt!
Yeah, I think he needs a couple of cookies.
And some bandages….and rehab….and maybe some rubbing alcohol.
Yeah. those too. And probably some ice.
and Dr Drew
Whoops, no probably Dr Phil first
This could get expensive! I hope Winky has health insurance.
Take him to a witch doctor.
I hear you can pay in chickens. lol
A witch doctor sounds awfully scary!
I have some spare chickens!!!!
Then I guess you can go to the witch doctor! I don’t know if I trust them.
“Binky, you need to stop and smell the– Ow!”
It’s hard to find time to smell the roses when you’re a rocket scientist on the run.
Looks like Winky needs a ride in the washing machine.
That should get his fur clean, but might add insult to injury.
Why is adding insult to injury more injury than insult?
I don’t know if the insult is more injury than it is insult, but it is additional indignity (at least to his ego) added to Winky’s current injury. So therefore it is adding insult to injury, however the degree of injurious insult is debatable.
Would it be mean to say I like the “toasted” version better?? 😉
Poor Winky!
RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN! Too late! Ha,ha,ha!
Better late than — well, maybe not.
Hahaha –
this is the sort of thing that happens to me when I try stop and smell the flowers.
Or… something similar, anyway. 🙂
Who knew flowers could be so dangerous.
The next thing you know he’ll break out in a rash, too! 🙂
Though it might be hard to tell under the burns.
Oh Dear! Winky looks a bit “fried”… groannnn… Grammy sends some special chocolate cookies just for him.
It was worth being fried for the reward of your chocolate cookies! Thanks Grammy!
Oh no! Poor Winky! Nothing a 1/2 dozen cookie and milk can’t cure……I can’t believe you toasted that cute little thing. Lol
It wasn’t my fault. He didn’t react fast enough. Never dally when rockets are a coming.
Now if only Winky had eyes in the back of his head he would have seen that coming
Maybe I could make some backwards-facing glasses with cameras in them so you could always see what’s behind you.
The vicar of Nibbleswicke?
I suppose the Vicar would be quite happy with a pair of such glasses.
an example of Darwin’s little known theory ‘Survival of the
FittestFastest’ in action ?The fastest will inherit the earth.
Is that bacon I can smell?
No, just a slightly sizzled Wombie.
What we had here was a failure to communicate.
That’s for sure! Binky needs a course in plain English.
What’s wrong with Mountain English?
Nothing if you’re in the mountains, but people elsewhere might have difficulty understanding some of your colloquialisms.
He’s fried wombat. 🙂
Luckily, he was only lightly fried, and is recovering nicely with cookies and milk.
At least he wasn’t stewed!
Yeah, I’m pretty glad I wasn’t! Although wombat stew is pretty good, when made by wombats that is, and not out of them.
Geeshh… you had be worried for a moment… I thought the fried brain turned you a bit cannibal! I almost had to ask for my cookies back.
I do like to eat, but not my own kind!!
I had to learn not say “what” every time someone else said “Duck!. 🙂
That can be a hard won lesson to learn, especially if you had to learn it the hard way.
Ha Ha I love the look on Winky’s charred little face in the last frame. I sure hope that isn’t Cedric’s rocket…
The rocket is actually another one of Binky’s failed designs. If he and Cedric got together, they could probably have a rocket disaster of epic proportions.
Who wants to assist donate to Japan?
It’s’ extremely sad regarding what’s taking place in Japan, so support donate!
Japan wants your own help!
It’s a very tragic turn of events for Japan, and they could definitely use our help
Ha! That one got an audible laugh out of me! The problem I have with “duck!” is that I always want to look first.
Yeah, that could be a bit of a problem!
I think it was really great
Thanks, Elizabeth.
Note to self;
If I see Binky running, RUN!
That would be most wise as Binky doesn’t run for nothing.
Beautiful quote…you need to add ‘except when Kroten is the one who sees it’ … she will definitely eat the flower after sniffing it
I’m sure Kroten believes flowers were made to be eaten.
he is so cute when we is.. er.. toasted 🙂 even though that must have hurt.. he looks so fuzzy 🙂
Unfortunately the frizzled fuzzy look wasn’t for Winky. It took him a lot of shampoo and conditioner to get back to his normal fluffy self.
Ouch! That hurt.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
And it’s not the first time Binky’s rockets have attacked me, either!
Resuscitate the monosyllable!
There can be an argument made for succinctness, however in some situations a more elaborate explanation may provide additional information which is crucial to making a more informed decision on what actions one should take.
I think a bit of TLC would help on this one, and a nice bag of assorted chocolates of course, I mean after such a blast I think Winky deserves a treat 🙂
I think so, too, but Binky never gave me any chocolates to make up for it!
