It took me bit to figure it out, but it's kind of amusing in an odd sort of way (click on images to enlarge):

Rather late for Christmas, but even so, it's about dogs, so it's always good:

Recently, The
New Yorker ran a contest to desgin some new looks for their resident dandy, Eustace Tilley. The finalists
were on their website. Here are two of my favorites.
I'm a huge fan of both regression and self-reference. This one has both:

And I love the NY subway, so this one was adorable too. (To get the reference, have a look at the
NYC subway map.)

I have a question about the top cartoon, but I don't want to give the joke away.
I suppose you've seen the Eustace Tilley cover that the magazine used.
I like the caterpillar best, too.
The caterpillar is the best.
I'm all for the dog cartoon! Woof Woof /wag wag/
Grandmere,
Yup, I did see that cover, and had to look at it twice to figure out who it was!
So it's been a day now - what's your question about the Bizarro scene?
RB -
I agree with you completely. You want a biscuit for that wag :-)
