The other day we got about a dozen Christmas cards in the mail. I was shocked because usually we receive about 3-4 probably because we never send any out. I started going through them and they were all for my neighbor across the street. For some reason our mail carrier can't seem to differentiate between and 8 and a 9 and confuses our street name with the street one over despite neither name looking or sounding alike. They don't even have the same name suffix.
Meanwhile, Brutus is postponing his Christmas card giving until he knows exactly who to send to. Veeblefester is confused and angry at this because he's supposed to be Scrooge-like character in this strip.
