Ah, the early days of Silicon Valley — weirdos welcomed.

Thinking WAY outside ‘the box’. “I cut the box apart ’cause I needed some cardboard for a project I was making.” —Budd N4WBJ

Snap judgment.

It’s a trap!

Reminds me of a ‘Freak Brothers’ story where Phineas is “looking for a job”.http://www.ladybud.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/FurryPhoto1.gif

At least Zonk doesn’t have a panicked look when offered a job, just rolls off his shoulders.

Now, as long as it fits in with with his tanning schedule!

Can I wear my software to the office? Hardware would be such a drag.

“You’ll have to talk to my agent.” – you have to admit, Zonker’s light on his feet. He REALLY wasn’t expecting someone who “got” him.

And after all this, he still hires Zonker. I thought the only real job was at McDon…, er, McFriendly’s.

Who’s pulling who’s leg?

I know Dave Sheridan and Shelton drew the strip together for a number of years; wouldn’t surprise me if they wrote together too. Looking for that image I saw a recent interview where Shelton, now in Paris, does the writing for a comic about the music business, saying he’d tapped out all marijuana humor with the Freaks.

Why does Zonker’s answer remind me of Chance the Gardener?
