I love this!
It’s so sweet that one cartoonist features another in his cartoon! I love that.
Why isn’t Gale the host?
Love this!!!
Very witty. Love that he included Gary as a character.
Thank you Bob. I’m honored to be in your orbit.
I recognized Gale instantly! So fun! : )
I’m waiting for Gary to show up in “Terry and the Pirates.”
How come I’m not this funny? LOL
LOVE this and love that you’ve included the Gary character (and hilarious that he barely makes it above the podium)!
Love the guest stars!
