I really did think of this one in January. I thought about writing a note to myself and doing the strip next December, but I never see such notes again.
I started drawing Beaver with his tail up just to indicate that he is a beaver. But then, I realized real beavers didn’t do that. Mostly I don’t care (because they don’t wear caps, operate restaurants or get in fist-fights with possums, either) but then I started wondering WHY would this particular beaver carry his up like that? Now you know.
This one went over real well at my office, where we have IDT every week. I don’t know how people who don’t have such a meeting feel, but hopefully the gag is relatable.
Strips appear on-line one week after they appear in the papers. If you would like to see them sooner, have your local newspaper contact me garisonfitch@gmail.com!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of me at “Tuttle’s”!
