Thursday

Me and Rowley decide to team up and do a cartoon together. So after school today he came over to my house, and we got to work. We banged out a bunch of characters real quick, but that turned out to be the easy part. When we tried to think up some jokes, we kind of hit a wall. I finally came up with a good solution. I made up a cartoon where the punch line of every strip is “Zoo- Wee- mama”. That way we wouldn’t get bagged down with having to write actual jokes, and we could concentrate on the pictures.
