2 Rick Parker January 11, 2008 at 9:52 am: Hey Joe, haven’t you noticed that in many cartoons, things are quite different from the way they are in reality? I mean, if mice, ducks, rabbits, turtles, dogs, and alligators can talk, why can’t brains, even once removed think?
3 FitBuff.com January 11, 2008 at 10:00 am: Excellent points Rick. You’re correct in reality Joe, but it is indeed a cartoon and meant to challenge reality in a humorous way.
