Been a bit long since the last comic, hopefully a double-sized one helps make up for it.
Well, we all knew that Wally’s parenting skills were not really so great. Although, those are adult chinstrap penguins anyway.
Here’s a couple chinstraps having a little skirmish. No bellybopping but some serious beak gnashing, looks like they decided they [...]

Well, they aren’t squawking anymore. Remember, never punish out of anger.
Speaking of noisy chinstrap penguins, here’s a page I’ve run into a couple times that features an audio clip of a chinstrap colony. Remember, they are considered the
I think it’s a definite yes on the tissue. Wally knows he’s not suppose to stare at the sun.
Don’t act like this has never happened to you. An unexpected, explosive sneeze with no tissue in site. The best you can do is shield the blow from innocent objects and bystanders with your bare hands. The [...]
I think we learn the rush of thrill at a young age. I have a toddler niece that is a real thrillseeker. An adrenaline junkie. Like there is no consequence, I’m not sure if she doesn’t learn or doesn’t care. But she would jump off the house if you let her.

Wally… the Polar Nerd.
I bet that smarted. Yeah, I said it.
I’ve worn glasses for years, since I couldn’t see the chalkboard anymore from the back of the classroom in middle-school (Sugg Middle School in Lisbon Falls, Maine to be exact). Glasses are kind of a nuisance, so I switch back and forth now from glasses [...]

Snow!
Speaking of snow, we got more snow here yesterday than we have combined in the last two years, there [...]
I wonder if you even get a couple rocks or a carrot with that kit. Those crazy kids. I think I’ll market that idea, a build-it-yourself snowman kit. It would be a plastic bag of water with a few rocks in it. The instructions would start off by putting the water in your freezer…
After all [...]
Now that’s a snow shovel.
Once again Osborne is a source of entertainment while napping. I was noticing I had a few of these strips sketched out in my notebook so I decided to add another category, “Osborne Napping” that you can sort by in the archives.
Let me know if there are any other categories that [...]
Osborne had a bit of a mean streak in him today. He may one day die a cold and lonely penguin.
This gag comes from life. This is what I always do to my kids when they want to tell me a knock-knock joke. I think my dad did it to me and my sister. It’s [...]
It doesn’t always pay to be right.
There is an age old building plan of snowmen, biggest ball of snow goes on the bottom and they get gradually smaller as you work to the head. Wally has gone against centuries of standardized snowman architecture.
Let It Snow!
I decided to do another snowman comic today because the snow [...]
