Great anecdote, Fairportfan2. I’m sure Walt Kelly was kidding readers, about himself. He was known as the fastest cartoonist in the business — the results looked great, and required huge talent but, for Walt, surprisingly little time. I assume this came partly from his years as a Disney animator, creating drawings by the thousands,
My first thought was the scene near the end of Castaway where the rescued Tom Hanks character keeps flicking a light switch while lying on top of a bed.

This comic looks familiar. If it’s a rerun it’s even funnier!

Walt worked on the first Fantasia. The alligators in Dance of the Hours look remarkably like Albert.
