HEY, ZEBRA, I'M GOING TO THE KITCHEN... DO YOU WANT ANY--
THE GOPHER GRENADIER BRIGADE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT ZEBRA'S HOUSE?
WE ARE TRAINED ASSASSINS. WE ARE EFFICIENT. WE ARE DEADLY. AND WE ARE HERE TO BLOW UP YOUR FRIEND.
OHH. THAT WOULD NOT BE VERY NICE. YOU TWO SHOULD LEAVE RIGHT NOW.
FOR ASSASSINS, WE'RE PRETTY EASILY PERSUADED.

HEY, ZEBRA... DID YOU EVER GET RID OF THAT DOGGY DOOR YOU HAVE IN YOUR BACK DOOR?
I WAS GOING TO BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT THE CROCS TO USE IT, BUT IT TURNS OUT THEY'RE TOO FAT TO SQUEEZE THROUGH.
SO NOW WHAT?
SO NOW I JUST LEAVE IT... BELIEVE ME, WITH ALL THE PREDATORS AFTER ME, IT'S NICE TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE ENTRANCE TO THE HOUSE I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT.
NICE PAD.

BAD NEWS, SIR, THE GOPHER GRENADE BRIGADE IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. MY BEST GUESS IS THEY'VE CROSSED THE BORDER INTO PAKISTAN.
PAKISTAN? WE'RE NOT ON THE BORDER OF PAKISTAN.
THEN MY BEST GUESS IS THAT SOMEONE HERE IS GIVING THEM SAFE HAVEN.
WHO'S GOT ANY USE FOR A BUNCH OF GOPHERS WITH GRENADES?
Sweet dreams, assassseen frends.

L'IL GUARD DUCK! REPORTS OF YOUR GOPHER GRENADE BRIGADE ARE POPPING UP EVERYWHERE!
I REALIZE THAT, SIR. I'M TRYING TO ASSESS THEIR INDIVIDUAL THREAT LEVELS BY DETERMINING WHICH ONES HAVE ADVANCED GRENADE TRAINING AND WHICH ONES ARE ONLY AT THE INTERMEDIATE LEVEL.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
HEY! I GOT THE PIN OUT!
OOOH, IT'S SO SHINY.

HEY, UH, GUARD DUCK, ONE
OF OUR NEIGHBORS JUST
TOLD ME HE WAS THREATENED
BY ONE OF YOUR
GRENADE-LAUNCHING
GOPHERS.
THAT CAN'T
BE. SIR.
I HAVE TO
APPROVE ALL
HIGH-VALUE
TARGETS.
WELL,
IT
HAPPENED.
MERCY ME. THAT WOULD MEAN
THAT MEMBERS OF MY GOPHER
GRENADE BRIGADE HAVE GONE
ROGUE. GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT
MILITARY OPERATIONS A UNIT
LIKE THAT MIGHT COMMENCE.
TWO FREE HOT DOGS PLEASE.

HEY, LIL' GUARD DUCK, WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THOSE GOPHERS YOU TRAINED TO CARRY GRENADES?
I POINTED THEM TOWARD THE TALIBAN, BUT SOMEHOW THEY NEVER GOT FARTHER THAN PITTSBURGH. SO NOW I JUST USE THEM AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR LITTLE DOMESTIC THINGS.
LIKE WHAT?
MOW YOUR LAWN OR ELSE, BOB.

OKAY, EVERYONE... WHY DON'T YOU ALL LINE UP ON THE LEFT SIDE HERE?
BUT PLEASE... NO PUSHING.
PLEASE. PEOPLE. PLEASE. NO PUSHING.
OKAY, OKAY... WHY DON'T WE JUST DO IT THIS WAY...
EACH OF YOU DRAW A NUMBER FROM THIS HAT AND THEN I CALL YOUR NUMBER.
OKAY... UH... NUMBER ONE... WHO'S GOT NUMBER ONE?
PLEASE, PEOPLE, LISTEN FOR YOUR NUMBER
A GUY CAN HOPE, CAN'T HE?
NEED ME TO KNOCK A FEW HEADS, SIR?

HEY, DUDE, WHAT'S THAT?
BIRTHDAY GIFT. I HEARD IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY, SO I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, "I SHOULD GIVE HIM SOMETHING."
THERE'S NOTHING IN IT.
IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS.

HEY, RAT... THIS IS MY FRIEND, SCIENTIST BOB. HE DOES FIELD RESEARCH INTO THE SOUNDS MADE BY DIFFERENT SPECIES OF ANIMALS.
HOW'S HE DO THAT?
THE COW SAYS "MOOOOOOOO..."
I QUESTION HIS METHODOLOGY.

I HATE HOW EACH TIME YOU TURN ON YOUR COMPUTER, I GET THESE PROMPTS FOR SOFTWARE UPDATES
WHAT’S WRONG WITH THEM?
THEY’RE ANNOYING. THEY’RE INTRUSIVE. I MEAN, WHY CAN’T THESE SOFTWARE MORONS GET THEIR PRODUCT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME? IT REALLY BUGS ME.
really?
REALLY.
I DON’T THINK MY WARRANTY COVERS THIS.
IT’S AN ACT OF GOD. HE GAVE ME A SHORT TEMPER.

HEY, GOAT... CAN I GET YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK? WE'VE GOT THIS NEW COLA CALLED "PRINCESS D." IT'S A TRIBUTE TO PRINCESS DIANA.
HMM... I'M NOT TOO BIG ON COLAS... GOT ANYTHING ELSE?
JUST "MOUNTAIN DEW."
SO THOSE ARE MY ONLY TWO OPTIONS?
IT'S DEW OR DI.
YOU ENTERTAIN NO ONE.

I HEARD YOU GOT A JOB WRITING THE BULLETIN FOR A LOCAL CHURCH.

BUT I DON'T WANT TO LIVE ON THE ROOF.

GOOD MORNING, GOAT!
