This just came to me one day while installing a new showerhead. It wouldn’t go away until I drew it.

Remember Burt Cottage anyone? He’s not in this strip, but maybe that guy in the middle is his great-great-grandfather.

It’s fun to go back to Burt Cottage now and then, with gags that don’t really work for Tuttle and his crew.

It’s been a year since I drew Burt Cottage and his friends. But I thought of the butter cartoon and needed something to fill out the page. Welcome back, Burt!

My first shot at this joke was a little racier. I’m glad I went with this version. It’s just a one word difference, but I think words are important.

Thinking this did help me enjoy the movie even more. (For the record, I liked the 2nd one better than the 1st.)

Yes, that is an exact quote from “Fellowship of the Ring.” I wonder if Tolkien meant something else, though.

Some of my favorite old Cottage & CO cartoons were the single-panel, one-off gags. Think “Rubes” meets “Mister Boffo”.

I really did see the headline mentioned in the first panel. From there, this strip practically wrote itself.

I tried suggesting this for the women singers at our church. They didn’t go for it, but at least they didn’t throw anything at me.
