I was going to try and extrapolate a really stupid metaphorical meaning about how this discussion on bees related back to the Clinton sex scandal, but then I decided that took way too much effort.

I also decided that I like this strip. Ozy's goggle-eyed look of confusion in the third panel sells it.

I love Ozy's pose in the last two panels because it looks awkward. Try eating a sandwich like that.

Good strip.

I wonder what they're looking at in the 3rd panel.

Millie's looking down at her lunch. Ozy's looking into the middle distance because he's trying to process what the hell Millie's talking about. Or perhaps why.

This strip was born at a journalism conference in Portland, Oregon, I and a bunch of other students from the Evergreen State College newspaper attended. We were given a writing assignment involving bees. I wrote pretty much what Millie says in this strip. I think it might have been a sign that I'm not a real journalist.
That which does not kill me, cripples me for life.
