twelve months' probation,
eleven units responding,
ten words of warning,
nine neighbors ringing,
eight shameless encores,
seven kegs a-brimming,
six queens sashaying,
five Highland Flings,
four letter words,
three clenched men,
two hurtled jugs,
and a party that lasted 'til three.
(And so concludes our merry holiday chronicle–slightly late, as booking at the precinct took simply forever. Normal (?) blogging resumes tomorrow.)

This was awesome! Thanks for the laugh!
Brilliant. So funny.
Thanks so much for the fun! Now take some of your chunkiest yarn, and tie that girl to the nearest pole! Oh wait, she might like that.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've had a good chuckle every day.
Loved all twelve days! And as you know, "normal" is a relative concept....
Franklin - Thank you so much. You always bring a smile to my day. Best wishes to all of you for the new year (let's hope she just gets probation)
Enclosed please find 10,000 Virtual L'Agneaus ("lambies", a currency used by sheep) to help with her legal fees; as a member of her Fan Herd I feel it's the least I can do. OH - and because I love you I won't send my drycleaning bill for the tea all over my laptop. Thenk yew (ewe?) very mosch.
You are doing a Dolores book someday aren't you? Thank you so much for the giggles.
Thank you! I enjoyed it very much!
I loved this sequence, and it made me very happy that my holidays were not this exciting!
She must have had a special something for the judge to have gotten away with probation. It could have been worse, like house confinement.
Very nicely executed. Thanks for the fun.
Thanks, Franklin, for 12 days of laughs. Love the last one!
Genius! Thank you.
i see a series of xmas cards...
I've really enjoyed seeing these in my reader every day. Good work, Franklin. A wonderful treat for this very blah time of year.
look at that bloodshot eye on her!
Do you suppose she'll end up in a cell next to Blago?
Thank you for the laughs!
Thank you Franklin for this merry holiday series. I enjoyed each and every one of them. A bit of irreverant cheer just hit the spot!
Hilarious! Thanks for the series.
Thanks, Franklin. Laughing all the way....
Thank you! I needed my Dolores fix, I missed her in "It Itches", which finally came in at my LYS (okay, so I bought some yarn, too, but it was 40% off and it's intended to be used in order to make something for my MiL and so it's okay, right?).
=^..^=
Quite in time, Franklin-- tonight is Twelfth Night!

YAY, Franklin! What a wonderful Christmas story! I love Dolores' mug shot. And I pity her probation officer. I have the feeling that the next twelve months are going to be interesting CHez Panopticon.
That was a great series. You've got to love Delores.
I second Ginaagain's comment about a Dolores Book. You bring a much-needed lift to our day. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us! Happy New Year from Northern Alberta, Canada!
An awesome twelve days - thank you!
I LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED.....your twelve days of Christmas. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU :-0
Happy New Year Franklin :-)
I have practically rolled on the floor with laughter every day! Thank you so much for sharing your twelve days of Christmas with us!
This is now officially my favorite Christmas carol ever.
What a complete delight your 12 Days of Christmas have been to an otherwise dreary 12 days. Thanks!
Thank you and a happy new year to you and Dolores :)
That was so fun! Thanks Franklin for the holiday cheer. :O) Lori
Did the governor bail her out?
12 Days of Chuckles!
Thanks, Franklin and Happy New Year.
These have been brilliant and a highlight to each of the past 12 days. Happy new year!
Wonderful! Thank you so much. I finally got It Itches as a belated Xmas present and snickered all the way through it. Honey, you are my kinda normal!
Would that the 12 days of Christmas were 24 or 30 -- it was such a wonderful New Year's Gift to your readers! Thank You!
Beautiful, and it even included a possessive apostrophe! I would PAY to see more of those used correctly.
Extra credit for you, Mr. H.
Wonderful! Um, that is unless you are living with Dolores, in which case I offer my condolences! Please tell me that Dolores will have her own book...
Poor Dolores. Loosing the election was really hard on her. She needs a nice long rest in the (asylum) pasture nearest you, where she can recoup and rediscover her sheeply roots. She just needs to rediscover the simple joys of a bucket of water and bale of hay, and in no time, she'll be ready to jump the fence and get back to making Harry's life a living hell.
The fact that you can make me laugh out loud after a day at work like today, makes you one very gifted person.
Thanks for sharing your humour with the rest of us.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! That was too much fun.
Thank you very much for a hilarious 12 Days of Christmas. I would say Poor Dolores but I think it is much more appropriate to say "Poor Franklin."
By the way today, the 6th of January is 12th Night, Epiphany, so you are right on time.
Thanks, again for the lovely Christmas gift.
This series of cartoons was the best. I particularly liked Dolores sticking her tongue out at the camera when the mug shot was taken.
Bravo! I LOVE it! I couldn't wait each day for the next one!
Sorry for the delay at the precinct.
Ooops, I stand corrected. You are late,:}, last night was 12th Night. But today is Epiphany.
I keep looking for the "funny (1)" button!
I was hoping you'd send her to me for the 12 months probation - of course you would have been required to attend regular planning meetings on her progress at a Central London venue.
Thanks for the laughs - especially the last one much needed after a day of dealing with "the day job"
Absolutely BRILLIANT!! You're amazing :)

Book #2? :)
Pretty please??
I was wondering what your epiphany would be...?
Priceless!! Bravo, Franklin!
The series was wonderful! Glad to see that you and Harry survived it all. How did Mrs. Teitlebaum's cat do through all the commotion?
Dolores should be careful. A probation violation could mean serving time in Lincoln Park Zoo's "Farm in the Zoo". Or proofreading mutton recipes for some charity cookbook as a community-service project.
Franklin, thank you for 12 wonderful days of laughter! Hope things start to settle down now that Dolores is on probation. I must disagree with some of the other comments, though. A Dolores book just wouldn't be enough - so how about a Dolores CALENDAR? 365 days of laughs for all of us!!!
XOXOXOX

Loved it, all 12 days. Dolores definitely should have her own book someday. I'm not so sure about a Dolores Goes To Prison movie, though.
A classic. Well done!
Happy New Year!
It must have been tempting to let her cool her heels in the clink for a bit. That girl is a handful!
Perhaps while Dolores is grounded, she'll write her autobiography? (Love the idea of the Dolores book!)
Very fun! Thank you!
Your twelve days of Christmas has made me chuckle on even the worst days....Thank you!
Hope your holidays were filled with only the best things!
The next thing we'll be reading is how Dolores is hitting on her probation officer
Lovin' the humor! Wishing you and the sheeply and woolly ones a very happy new year - L.
Day 12 would make a great image for t-shirts. You ought to include it on CafePress.
that was great! That would make a perfect xmas card!
So Franklin - any chance that these may appear next year as a set of Christmas cards in the shop? Or perhaps a shirt?
Please???????
Are you okay? You haven't posted in awhile and although you're no doubt busy with your life I did just want to check to be sure everything in your neck of the woods was going smoothly. You're more than just a blogger to the rest of us, we think of you as a friend, too!
Doris is catting around town again. We have photographic evidence.
I told my sister you had said "normal blogging resumes tomorrow" and that it had been a week with no posts since then, and she said, "well, that's normal...." ;-) --Mindy in ABQ
If Harry could, please, let us know how he's doing...
