Description Not really appropriate for the freaking DROUGHT we're having in Seattle right now, but true nonetheless.

(PS: This was about the point where my newspaper was enforcing a "horizontal format only" rule for my comics. Thus the reason your not seeing any stacked 2x2 comics at this point.)

Does Greg look familiar to anyone?

EDIT:: Oh yeah, I almost forgot! This strip was my first "paintbucket-in-the-values" comic of the year! I was really happy with the way it turned out. Unfortunately, it paves the way for laziness and it all goes down from here.

I live in Oregon. Have all my life. Ive only seen these "umbrellas" in movies. I have my doubts that they really exist. Hollywood made em up.

Ahaha! Oh, poor man. I love the panel where the thunder rumbles and everyone whips out their umbrellas, and poor Greg looks totally bewildered. I can't imagine anyone being silly enough to go to Seattle without an umbrella. XD

There are many, MANY people silly enough. Most of them poor hapless folks like Greg who are told not to bring one.

I'm glad you like my comic!

It's true! I guess too many people complained about the rain so it just huffed off indefinitely.

Every self-respecting college guy has to get a hilarious goatee at least sometime during his four years there.

Even as a girl, I want a goatee too. I could stroke it thoughtfully during profound moments in life.

You are a smart little Norwegian girl. Here in Seattle, we all pretend not to have umbrellas, but we whip them out of there hiding places when the weather becomes unbearable. xD

Yes, always be prepared! That way nothing can catch you off guard, except the mundane. I am never prepared for the mundane.
