In panel 3 of today’s strip, Gramp says “…I’ll send them down a shoot of 2 x 4’s.” This, as 5,243 people have kindly pointed out to me, is incorrect. It should read “chute.”
In my original script, Gramp was going to say “I’ll just shoot ’em down these 2 x 4’s,” but I changed it up as I was inking the text…and didn’t notice my error. I’ll incorporate that fix into the strip.
All of this, of course, proves the old truism:
“Homonyms: They’re Mother Nature’s little S.O.B.’s.”
