You are so funny. I like you commentary as much as I do your cartoons!

I so appreciate your talent and the back stories are fascinating, I count on you to put what I’m thinking into art. You never disappoint. The Pigseth one is spot on.

Great roundup, my friend! I really loved the nutria in the Canadian cartoon. I’ve seen a nutria in the wild only once at the Pringle Creek bridge near 12th Street in Salem. Here’s the big reason your nutria tickled me, though. When OSU redesigned Benny Beaver with the dopy image they use now, my husband Bob declared it looked like a deranged nutria. I love your deranged nutria better!

Who can deny the satirical qualities of the nutria?

I remember all the comments about the new angry Beaver. First time I had ever heard of nutria.

Well, Phil Knight’s crew seem to be running out of new ideas for depicting long-time mascots. U of O lucked out with still-friendly Disney. U of O can keep the Donald Duck image for a designated while into the future!

Does anyone else remember the NPR April Fool's Day story (around 1988) which reported that Arizona was going to become part of Canada? They even got former AZ Governor Bruce Babbitt in on it.

Grandpa was going to take me fishing...only 65 years ago...on the Madison River in Montana. Oh well. Stuff happens. He did let me drive his Montana Power truck :D

Not dead yet, so we'll see 😀🥰♾️

There’s nothing in Eugene. I was there. Well, maybe those cool tree trunks that have been carved with a chainsaw into beautiful sculptures. Probably by a dude from Wisconsin.

Anyway, next time, don’t you dare pass up oppos like Hogseth or Pigseth. I mean, that’s silver platter stuff.

A one-eyed cartoonist! Is there anything you can’t do, Jack? (Picturing Daniel Day-Lewis’ foot…)
