This strip was SO much fun to draw, especially since almost all the humor is solidly dependent on the visuals.
I also liked that Vachel eats spaghetti for breakfast.

Ted never seemed to hibernate too long. I guess he was simply too important to the cast, I couldn’t stand him being away so long.
As a child, I always thought one could move or change things with one’s mind, if one concentrated hard enough. Fortunately I only tried to change things which my mind couldn’t change, so I wasn’t left in the exhaustive trap that Blake was.
The punchline here is very secondary, although if you look at a dog’s face when you rub them behind the ears, it is a very apt comparison. But the strip really hangs on the main truism, which I wrote from the heart.
I almost love getting caught in the cold damp rain, because the feeling a warm shower, putting on a dry bathrobe and slippers, and then even better — a fire and some cocoa, has got to be one of the most divine things ever. Which is funny, because you need the awfulness of being cold and damp or else it’s not the same.

Ah, Amelia Earhart. I wonder if I wrote this right after reading “I Was Amelia Earhart”? A lovely book.
One of the things I enjoyed about writing Ted is his understatement. he could’ve flown off the handle at vachel, but setting another place at the table is such a quiet statement, which says EVERYTHING he wants to say.
Heh. And Blake with the tofu.

I was brought up a vegetarian (and still am), so lasagna was our centerpiece. Still love it.

Okay, polar bears are north pole, penguins are south pole, so of COURSE if penguins drove this far north it would be enticing for the polar bears to get in their triumph and seek the penguins out.
It’s always fun for me to write a joke like this when I have no idea yet the answer to the question.
