Mr. Heebie Jeebie would be a lot scarrier to the sleeping Pig, were he inflated and burst, with a loud BANG! Then, we would all be rid of him, at least; unless he were the first in a pack of twenty-five lunch bags. (To pack, and take to work.) More bang for the buck?
Poor Pig, he looks like he hasn't slept for a few days. And to wake with Mr Heebie Jeebie in your face? Not fun. Mr paper bag is going to find himself on someone's door step with poo inside and lit on fire when Pig finally snaps.
What's the matter Pastis? Have you quit us and gotten a ghost writer? Someone who perhaps is not well-read of "Pearls"? I mean, here you are recycling. Pepito the hand puppet was much much better. And now a bag? How weak and dilute? I am disappointed. I know you live in California and believe highly in recycling but there is no need to recycle past concepts. Only thing I can see is Pepito be on the other hand and wallop Mr. heebie jeebie or whatever he may call himself. Or has Rat lost it? Is Rat about to get in his box o'idiots?
Imagine for a moment that you have paid the required retainer and enlisted the legal services of one Stephan Pastis, Esq. in his pre-syndicated days. I don't know what kind of law he practiced, but with a mind like his ... it's beyond comprehension what could happen. I wonder if he wore a Rat mask? By the way, check out the telephone ID in GET FUZZY today. A sharp-eyed PBS fan (RobClement) caught it. Advantage: Darby. I await the return volley.
Sorry, didn't mean to just post a link last time. My bad. Sorry everyone! I just meant to point out the similarities... oh well. I like this strip, and I like Mr. Heebie Jeebie.
