I’ve never seen The Defiant Ones, so I suppose it could be making that reference as well, but the rock hammer and Rita Hayworth joke from the past few strips have been pretty clear allusions to The Shawshank Redemption.
Ahh… See, he confused me by switching from Shawshank Redemption (which I have seen) to Defiant Ones (which I have not seen) but one look at the cover art on IMDB and I see that you are correct, cleokaya. Thanks for the tip, it makes the strip funnier.
I like Poncho, but I am totally lost! I saw those movies but I am still not seeing it. I do like their faces in the strip. I guess the water is cold. burrrrrrrr.

Yes, it’s been done. Do you suppose they will run into 2 cows and a chicken? (see that strip’s last several days))

Hehe, they’re so funny! These are the first pictures of the (or a cat) showing any emotion. Just look at those two desparate faces!

Now that’s a first – a modest dog and a modest cat!
(I thought Poncho would have to hold it in until he found a fire hydrant…)

Yeah, but the cat’s using a tree and Poncho’s using a bush?

Maybe from all this Poncho will learn cats aren’t so bad.

I hope Poncho and the Cat find a phone and call Chaz immediately. Was the cat’s name ever mentioned?

Readyhere - Yep the Defiant Ones with Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis. I thought the same thing when I read the strip.
