<!--QuoteBegin--> <table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'><b>Quote:</b> </td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> Having just run two consecutive strips from the current calendar year, I thought I'd go all the way back to 1998 for variety.In general, Millie's face got far more animated and expressive as the years went by, but I still think panel 3 is a classic Millie expression.The perspective is way off in this one, especially in the first panel--a lot of the early stuff suffers from that, particularly anything that's set indoors. Oh well. I still like this strip.<br><!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table> <!--QuoteEEnd--> <br><br><a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2003/om20031122.html' target='_blank'>Another Bath Strip</a> depicts Millies classic shenanigans in one of many funny strips revolving around her in a bathtub; a scenery that stages her personality quite well. Her facial expression in the final panel if priceless, and it's as well a great reflection on the war of Ms. Mudd's and Millie's mother/daughter relationship. And hey, a bathtub so full of toys that there's no room for water is just funny.<br><br>The perspective is pretty off, but the positive elements in this oldie well outweigh that.

Yeah, there's something in this strip that just aren't in any of the other strips.<br>A different kind of pricelessness.

since this takes place when millie is 8, not 10, the strip seems to more embody the idea of youthful shenanagins, while anything done after the style change would be a little (even if not much) more well planned and thought out (not necissarilly successful! <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) at the age of 10. Plus, as time would have gone by, Ms. Mudd would have found out that tactic, and millie would have to devise new plans in return. This is a simple plan, and well executed.
If you've done things right, people won't be sure if you've done anything at all.

Millie wouldn't do that nowadays.<br>She'd go to greater lengths to annoy her mom because she gotten used to it by now.

Although Simpson can just use Timulty to demonstrate the joy's of youthfull inocince. Plus 10 ain't THAT old.

But there's so much development between 7 and 10, in comparison it's alot older.<br><br>And Timulty isn't that kind of kid.<br>How old is Tim anyways?

Originally he was 2, since the change in style he's been four. I like 4 year old Tim better. He gets to run around more and we see him without Avery.<br>
