Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for January 09, 2009
Transcript:
Stephan says, "Okay, guys, it seems like with oil, food and all the other world's commodities, newspaper ink is now in short supply." Rat says, "So?" Stephan says, "So that means cutbacks. Like today, no panel lines." Pig says, "That's not so bad. Can we do anything else?" Rat says, "Next time keep your fat mouth shut." Pig says, "Look! My ideal body weight!"
