Desert island is the way he sees his position in life. No electric boat. That’s Charon, the boatman from the River Styx. Chicken: him thinking of making a big change that could be fatal. Shark: a member of the business that is eating his soul. Martini: final quaff that’s going to make things look better . . . for a while.
At least that’s the way I see it. Anybody’s guess will work. Cheers.
I had an idea for a comic once showing a squashed body under a safe on a psychiatrist’s couch, and the caption was the shrink saying “it’s clear that your problems stem from you being a cartoon”.
I had a dream last night that I was trying to hold a door closed that an elephant was trying to push open from the outside. When I told my wife about it this morning and wondered where such crazy stuff comes from, she did remind me that our team is playing Alabama today. True story.

Quick, get into the electric boat. There’s a shark over there about ten yards away.
And what’s that chicken gonna do? and why?

At least a couple of his cliches need work. Aside from the chicken (see my reply to the second comment), that ain’t a Stairway to Heaven!

Ignore your eyes – you aren’t dreaming.

After many expensive sessions, the shrink will tell him his problem is that he’s never felt he was good enough to please his father.

Original desert island jokes are so rare (unoriginal ones are all too common). This one deserves a prize!

Steven Wright dreamed that he told a chicken to cross a road. The chicken said, “What for?”

Ok, put the chicken in the boat with Death, pay the shrink, drink the martini, forget about the shark, cross the bridge and go to Heaven!

Is the martini for the patient or the psychiatrist?

Perfect example of too many strip ideas that wouldn’t get out of each others’ way. Lemonade out of lemons time.

Apparently this is an homage to the Lug Nuts comic by J.C. Duffy.

That’s life; just when you think you’re starting to figure something out, it’s time to go. Youth truly is wasted on the young.
