Jeez.. I didn't get the title until about 5 seconds after reading the strip.. poor Ozy. Simpson definitely earned a lot of eye rolls and groans from that!<br><br>... and I thought <i>we</i> cornered the market on bad puns.<br><br>EDIT: By the way, I don't think first posts count for much when all it contains is an <a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2004/om20040429.html' target='_blank'>easily predictable URL</a>. I'd have been more impressed if NHJ BV had at least bothered to offer some description of the strip or afterthoughts in the first post.<br><br>About the "predictable URL": Try it again in about two days.. or maybe three, since the Thursday updates tend to be later in the day.
