Overboard by Chip Dunham for February 24, 2010

Don’t worry, the strip is awesome!

Good Morning Crew!

Hang in there Chip!

Morning Maties!!

Oh Chip, don’t worry! Charile, why are you sitting there reading the paper?

Good morning Crew!

Chalie’s doing his bit to save the strip (and newspapers in general!)

Ditch digging is a hot job right now.

Good Morning Crew!

Manual excavator if you please!

Yar, I’m late….

I dig this strip too Carols! Sometimes, it’s a dirty strip, but I always enjoy reading it. “Like Sand through the hourglass, this is Overboard.”

Mornin’ crew!

If your ditch-digging is anywhere near as good as your comic writing…

Good Morning Crew!! Everyone’s in fine form this morning! :)

Good Morning Crew! Chip, I “dig” your strip in the newspaper and online!

Good Morning Crew,

Chip is going to start living the DREAM.

Digging for BURIED TREASURE!

Have a GREAT DAY MATIE’S

All you need is another good supervisor and three trucks around and a list of government regulations on where to dig and the Gas company to survey the area so you don’t hit a main and the neighbors to hang over the fence and a much more detailed manual showing the different techniques of shoveling and then…you’re ready to go.

Has the Overboard character “the guy who does the strip” ever been positively identified as “Chip”?

That being said, it’s often difficult for ex-strippers to go legit…

I hope this isn’t a omen of things to come

I hate bad omens.

Good Morning, Crew!!!

freeholder1 - Don’t forget the OSHA approved safety courses and equipment. EPA black plastic with stakes to contain any yuchs you may run into. 2 year Evironmental Impact Study to make sure you’re not going to upset an endangered earthworm.

I hate to say this, but don’t they have machines to dig ditches now?

commerce1943: “Yeah, they wind up married to washed-up old f**ts, and have to live in some god-forsaken liitle town in a fly-over state.

“Ooops, a little more personal bitterness leaked out.”

Yeah, but they’re still your parents, so ya gotta love ‘em anyway.

Excellent idea-todays strip. I really enjoyed so long ago when the author would join in with the characters. If the ,”mice” could be pit in the ditch and covered perhaps more readers will happen. As soon as I see the mice I turn to the next comic,why bother.

LOL!! You guys are cracking me up… :-)

Hey Crew!

It’s a good thing to have an alternate occupation Chip.

Stand strong, Chip! (Admittedly I’m right in there with the digging at such time as the novel thing goes awry… but positive thinking!!)

Pardon the interloper, Crew… ;)
