I Wanna Go There Tweet “Cars” is my favorite of all the Pixar movies. I know that puts me in the minority, but that’s okay, most people are wrong everyday.
Extraordinary Measures Tweet If you read the release you sign for anything, it’ll make you not want to do it. Also, doesn’t the word “extraordinary” seem like it should mean “extra ordinary” as in “more ordinary than previously thought possible”?
My Homey, Your Homey Tweet Both homeopathy and “real” medicine involve a lot of placebo effect. I’m not saying they’re equal, but that often neither will work if the person doesn’t believe they will.
True Wombat Factoid Tweet I learned this fact while researching wombats for a book I was writing that everyone who has read loves and still quotes passages back to me but, sadly, you will probably never see.
Press One to Fire Tweet I think I thought of this pun as a kid, probably while watching Gunsmoke, but just never thought of how to use it as a cartoon. Aren’t you glad I finally figured it out?!?!
Like Thunder Tweet I thought of this one years ago, and I think drew a version of it for ‘Cottage & CO’, but I kept hearing that people didn’t get it. Hopefully, you do.
Silencers Tweet According to one source, the first effective silencers for guns were actually designed to be sound mufflers for machinery. Also, I’m surprised I didn’t get any complaints about a comic strip that may involve guns.
Reptiles vs. Everyone Else Tweet For several years in this strip there was an annual competition between the reptiles and everyone else. It started with football, then I know they played tug-o-war, and I can’t remember what all else. Wonder why I got away from it?
Violent Workshop Tweet I love it when seminars are offered on topics like this and the way the flyer is worded you’re not really sure whether they are in favor of violence or alcoholism or whatever.
Never Learn Tweet I think my wife came up with this one while we were watching some TV show that used the phrase from the first panel.
