    What’s the matter with Petey? The plastic wrap for the sandwich and the yogurt’s cup aren’t good enough to make sure they don’t touch each other?

    Maybe Ernesto is imaginary, even the crumbs disappeared.

    Before the new strips ended, was it ever established whether Ernesto was real, dead, or really a figment of Petey’s imagination?

    Oh, Petey! I feel your pain! Please, Madeline! There have to be hallucinogens somewhere, or else Petey is having a big (Ernesto-sized) problem….

    @bluegirl285I always believed That Ernesto was a figment of Richard’s imagination. Of course, that may be quite wrong!

    I remember this one…scary. I didn’t know Petey’s eyes could get that big.

    It runs in my mind that Ernesto was established as being real. I think someone else spoke to him, but I can’t be certain. Anybody?

    Just did some checking. Mrs. Otterloop and Viola have interacted with Ernesto.

    Night-Gaunt49 Old horse, I haven’t seen a post by you since Minimum Security imploded into a Marxist rant. I looked at your site and enjoyed the comic posted there. A question, does your selection of a moniker come from the writings of Lovecraft? If your writing/cartooning are of the same ilk you have an audience panting, nay slathering for more. Of course, the trick is to connect to them. agile_333@yahoo.com

    Great strip all around, but the coup de grace is Ernesto globbering his lunch down like a dog!

    Is it me, but doesn’t Ernesto look like the late film critic Roger Ebert?

    My seven-year-old “Alice” wants to comment again: Petey!No yogurt !

    (Needed help with spelling, but words hers.)

    My comment: Indeed, Madeline and others have interacted with Ernesto – but ever hear of group hallucinations? Also, I’ve seen it surmised that Viola might be a figment of Petey’s imagination. Keeps us on our toes.

    What is your strip? Alternate Alley Opp? Do you have another one? Lots of stuff I don’t know.
