Fleas are apparently not uncommon in the Sunday Mark Trail “Let’s Look at Nature” strips. The previous one, complete with Mark chasing Andy to give him a bath, was in August 2008…only three years ago!
Rather than get all testy with a kinda, sorta rerun, I think the strip can be reworked with the thrilling current weekday plot of the Hunt for Red October John Thrasher; he’s a war veteran, special-ops, who’s retreated from “civilization.” He’s a match for Mark’s woodsy ways, and for Andy’s, too. It’s a good thing that Rusty and Sassy didn’t come along — they’d be dead in a hail of poisoned darts and avalanches of boulders by now.

I’m back! Dang, I’m so out of touch with pop culture lately! I never get the picture references! Who is that guy?
And who was the bespectacled fellow peering from the ceiling in that 9CL Sunday strip several weeks back? (the comments were shut off on that one, that’s why I’m leaving it here)
I was going to say something about obsolete pop culture, but I just read an article about this fellow, that the government is going to auction off his “stuff” to help pay restitution to his victims. It’s Ted Kazynski, the Unabomber.
