Thursday Quickies

Our proto-Brutus is at the beach with a dog(?), giraffe(?) floatation device around his waist. A lightbulb appears above his head as he notices a man asleep in the sand. Brutus kicks sand onto the man's face. The man then, of course, angrily chases proto-Brutus into the ocean with proto-Brutus saying "My problem is I'm too impulsive."
April 1, 1966
"Born Loser"? You created this yourself.

At least he's not a muscular beach man, but he's tall and stringy and probably pretty fast.

Brutus and Arnie are at work standing next to the watercooler. Brutus looks a little down in the dumps. "Having a bad day, Thorny?" Arnie asks. "You look a little down." "I'm so low, it feels I have to reach up to touch bottom."
Come ask me about how my life is going, Arnie.
