Garfield by Jim Davis for March 20, 1983
Transcript:
Jon: This looks like a good spot to rest. Garfield: I never saw a spot that wasn't a good spot to rest. Jon: Well, Garfield, here we are in the great outdoors. Garfield: It's outdoors all right, but I'd debate the "great". Jon: Just listen to the sounds of nature. Garfield: Sounds like noise to me. Jon: Nature can actually speak to you, you know. Garfield: Go on. Jon: Hear that? Nature is speaking to you now. Garfield: Wait. I do hear something... I HEAR IT! I HEAR IT! Nature is saying, "Garfield the cat. You're a long way from your warm bed and television set."
You must have a death wish, because you just read ANOTHER Garfield book, Garfield Tips the Scales. Noted things worth mentioning only in the book are an illustration of a robot cat diagram claiming to be the machine that replaced Garfield, and a letter section on the back cover, which includes this gem:
Dear Jim Davis,
Gar is goodGar is fat,let us thank Jimfor the cat!
Yours truly,Jennifer G.
