Housecats are known to be aloof, but "cat-titude" reaches new heights in Get Fuzzy, the bitingly hilarious comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley. Available daily and Sunday and appearing in 650 newspapers nationwide, Get Fuzzy is a wry portrait of single life, with pets. At the center of this warm and fuzzy romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of anthropomorphic scamps Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch who tries to remain neutral, but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family... more or less.
The National Cartoonists Society honored Get Fuzzy with a Reuben division award, naming it the Best Newspaper Comic Strip of 2002. There are a dozen Get Fuzzy compilation books published by Andrews McMeel: The Dog Is Not a Toy (House Rule #4); Get Fuzzy 2: Fuzzy Logic; Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury; The Get Fuzzy Experience: Are You Bucksperienced; Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun; Blueprint for Disaster; Say Cheesy; Scrum Bums; Loserpalooza; I'm Ready for My Movie Contract; and Take Our Cat, Please; plus Get Fuzzy wall and box calendars.

Well, “the arkies” would be more than just “one arky.”
Technically, though….I do think the plural of “ANarchy” should be “SOME arkies,”.

But it is so logical to make it plural, given the amount of paint….But I just remembered something, I knew yesterday that I’d worked with Ann before….Man, I must have buried all those strange times with her whole family, the Arkies…Dad had two noses, it had something to do with an M 80…..One of the girls had way too many…. well, that’s not the point….Gonna have a bad dream tonight, I can feel it…Awe, no, come on, somebody shut that banjo up..

Or is Arkies the name of people who believe in Noah and the Flood?

Relax, Varnesie.
Have a pot of moonshine, shoot a few’coons and think about the time Ann’s Dad played an entire nose flute sonata at her sister’s wedding.
There were good times, too!

Plunka, plunk, plunk, plunk, plunk, plunka, plunk …
What’s the difference between a banjo and an onion ?
No one cries when you cut up a banjo.
(Yes folks, there’s hundreds of ’em on the web …)
