Monday Morning Mojo No. 60

Filed under: Bulldog on Monday, December 11, 2006

Wow!Mini image of the comic

SIXTY Monday Morning Mojos! I passed the one year mark and didn’t realize it—who knew our stinky little bulldog would practically take over the site?

Today’s issue features Mojo’s good friend and partner-in-crime, Clara. You can read up on Clara here if you like, or just launch the comic, either by clicking on the image to the right or this link.

  1. Mighty Mojo. Jaws of Doom.
    I wuvs Mojo.
    Our dog problem with the lower branches was the Mighty Tail.
    SWIPE!

  2. I can just tell that Mojo is plotting… what will he get to next? After all… he’s looking forward to all those “treats” in his stocking for being a bad boy! lol

    Mojo rules… oh, and we like you, too, Bonnie!

  3. Mojo and his Jaws of Doom!

    What a rascal. I think he’s giving tips to the kittens of doom. ;)

    Thanks for the Mojo-nator fix.

  4. I’m not sure what is worse… Mojo tearing up things around the tree or my BEAST OF BURDEN peeing on the presents. My little beast has been banned to the outside dog run until Christmas is over. Don’t worry I gave him a big wool blanket and put it in his very large dog house. No animal cruelty here! Although the fantasies I had when the deed was discovered…

  5. Ahhhh …mojo being mojo means it’s Monday. I love it! I’m hoping the red and white santa-something he chewed was not your favorite…but man, a bulldog’s gotta do, what a bulldog’s gotta do.

    I think Clara is adorable too.

  6. Mojo, you’ve made my day again! Love the format, Bonnie.

  7. I’m lying here recovering from surgery and remembered it’s Monday! That means MOJO! I don’t know if it is the drugs or what but Mojo is just so adorable. We love Comic Life at our house. My husband uses it to do a weekly strip on the Oakland A’s.

  8. I love the comic format. I just laugh and laugh at these. I wonder if Mojo would even touch some indestructible dog toys if they were hung on the tree. . . wait, what am I saying indestructible toys and Mojo is not possible.

  9. I love Mojo & Clara…they seem to be the best of buds…lol

  10. That is too funny! I love the comic book!

  12. At least it’s not as bad as eating tinsel. :)

  13. I so needed this Mojo fix today. Watch my fists make circles in front of me. Go Mojo! Go Mojo!

  14. “She must’ve found the headless wise man.”

    Hee! I love Mojo and Clara, the Dynamic Destructo Duo – ya gotta give ‘em credit for sheer persistance and ingenuity!

  15. Nothing like a dose of Mojo to break up the rewrite blues.

    *Previewer set to ‘IGNORE’.

  17. LOL…“Mighty jaws of Doom!” ROFLOL!

    Gotta’ love that dog!

  18. The first year we had one of our cats, we had to remove him from the branches on a regular basis.

    We’ve always had to have the breakable ornaments up a bit higher than usual because our dogs loved to stand next to the tree and wag their tails. Stuff always went flying when that was happening.

    Love that Mojo, he’s a keeper.

  19. Bernita, tail swipes were a big problem with our Standard Poodle. Once he wiped out three pieces of my sister-in-law’s Depression glass stemware… ay, the screaming was awful!

    Yay, Judy! I’m glad you like Mojo’s conniving ways!

    Kristen, kittens are more crafty than bulldogs—it gives them an edge on pulling down Christmas ornaments.

    Aw, Squirrel, I totally sympathize. Once we owned a dog that peed all over our Christmas tree. Stinko!

    Dink, we were pretty careful about putting only the least sentimental and least costly ornaments near the bottom, so it was just a cheapie he got, but still.

    Welshcakes, Simi doesn’t eat ornaments, does she?

    Kristine, I’m sorry to hear about your surgery! Hubby goes under the knife on Wednesday for a torn meniscus. I hope you both feel better soon.

    Hi, Krista! I’m just hoping he doesn’t take on the tree itself. It’s fake, but you never know.

    Sandy, they do love each other’s company. They play so hard together that it tuckers Mojo out for the rest of the day!

    Thanks, Erika. I’m having lots of fun with the software.

    LaurelWreath, don’t encourage him, now!

    I guess not, Suzanne. Poop patrol can be pretty nasty after tinsel’s been in the house!

    Heh, Lesia!

    Angie, Didi did find the wise man’s head, but it was beyond repair. That was an 80-year-old nativity set!

    Rewrite, M.G., rewrite! I am behind you all the way. The previewer, however, you do not want behind you.

    Susan, that’s awful. Do you use Malaseb? You can make a solution with water that’s cheaper and gentler than the commercial solution (which has alcohol in it).

    Heh, Bonnie, I can’t get a certain picture out of my head: one of your man—dodging a light-fixated baby skunk!

    Ms. Karen, Mojo lives vicariously through Clara’s tail, which is prodigiously strong and wicked, especially around Christmas trees.

  20. Happy Anniversary Mojo!

    …oh and Bonnie too – LOL

  21. Bonnie I notice you say “use to own”. That is the direction this is going if he doesn’t straighten up! BTW I stole your comic strip idea for my post today. But I just made my own, I don’t have Comic Life :(

    Comment by Squirrel — 12/12/2006 @ 7:23 am

  22. Bonnie,

    The comic format is awesome. And I thought Monday morning Mojo couldn’t get any better.

    My dog seems so boring now, though.

    Thanks. :~)

  23. Oddly enough it’s the cats we have to worry about with the tree, not the dogs!

    Comment by Heather — 12/12/2006 @ 2:09 pm

  24. I used to have a cat that would climb to the top of the tree and slide all the way down, taking all ornaments in his path with him. I guess animals just don’t know how to celebrate without destruction. Good thing we love ‘em!

    Comment by Mel — 12/12/2006 @ 7:47 pm

  25. Heeeellllloooo! Heeeellllloooo! Heeeellllloooo! There’s an echo in here. It’s Wednesday. Where’s Bonnie? I need my funny bone fix!

    Comment by Lesia Valentine — 12/13/2006 @ 12:30 pm

  26. I have no pets except for Marvin the dustbunny. It is my GRANDCHILDREN that I have to keep an eye on!
