    Pumpkins

    Sunday, October 25, 2009 - 12:59 AM

    We haven't done a decision tree in the strip in a while...in fact, I think the last one we did was back in 2007 for the Artist's Decision Tree. But pumpkins, as a subject matter, warranted it.

    Also: You will be happy to know that I got a pumpkin that does indeed look like that one photo of Nick Nolte.
