    Deeper than your average cartoonist likes to dive.
    Beautifully done FD.

    Hide in the hole in the centre of things.
    It is good advice that it doesn’t matter.
    I do hope Crikey isn’t sending Mr Dog ‘to the farm’ instead of Canberra.

    How true. Yet on another level, not true.

    XJAMESXEDWARDSX: You look familiar! How many James’ write into Crikey, I wonder?

    The too Leunig thing is a two-way street. Not long ago, couple of months perhaps, Leunig produced a cartoon that was totally FirstDog. Don’t forget, we all stand on each other’s shoulders.
